Rolf Hicker's individual photo tours, Vancouver Island

“My private Wildlife & Scenery photo tours are not only for photographers. It is an individual private photography tour tailored to YOUR needs. I just want to make sure that the tour is the highlight of your entire trip. I am an award-winning, full-time travel, nature and wildlife photographer.

I have over 35 years of experience in the field, worldwide but also specifically in this area around Vancouver Island. I’m very well known for my ethics as well as my unique Orca (Killer whale) & whale portfolio.

Experience has taught me how to “find” those picture-perfect moments but it is up to you if you want to capture the moment in a photograph or simply to enjoy it.”

Stay & Tour (check here for packages)

My private photo tours include almost everything a visitor wants to do and see within a few days. I recommend a 3-5 night minimum stay to do the “discover all” photography package. It includes a full day, 8-12 hour wildlife& scenery photography tour with grizzly bear watching in Knight Inlet, killer and humpback whale watching, bald eagle watching, dolphin watching other marine mammals, in one of the most scenic areas in Knight Inlet, the longest Inlet (Fjord) along the British Columbia coast and the Broughton Archipelago Provincial Marine Park. Another day we will be on a full day tour by land to the West Coast of Northern Vancouver Island and Cape Scott Provincial Park. All my tours are on the Traditional Territories of the Kwakwaka’wakw People in British Columbia, Canada.⁠

We will be on a easy walk (2 hours round trip) through a beautiful North Island forest to visit sandy beaches and photograph all along. In the afternoon we go further to the much rougher outside coast and if requested we stay even out for sunset. Another day we do our Cave & Lake tour which is a half day tour to visit my favourite place, an open limestone cave with a beautiful river and we visit a scenic lake with steep mountains behind. Or the half day could also be spent on another 5 hour whale watching tour or a 4 hour sunset whale watching tour, all tours are private and custom built.

I’m your host for your accommodations, I normally serve breakfast and I’m also your professional tour guide with a lot of photography knowledge. I’m also leading and organizing film-/ photo shoots for international film producers and production crews around the area.

Information about the photo tours on and off Vancouver Island can be found via the links below the pictures.

All the pictures you see were photographed in the last couple of years on our private photo tours around Northern Vancouver Island.
