Secret Canyon Photo Tour
The Secret Canyon Photo Tour is our newest tour, designed for the amateur, as well as the professional photographer*. This tour extends the time allotted within Secret Canyon, to maximize your photographic opportunities. We have found through the years, that photographers find themselves overwhelmed, in all areas of the canyon, by the extraordinary beauty they are able to capture through the use of today's amazing photographic equipment. With tripod positioning, lens changing, increased exposure times, the constant change in lighting, and just the desire to capture as many photographs as possible. The majority of photographers could spend hours on end inside of the canyon, though most feel satisfied after 2-3 hours. This tour spends twice the time in the canyon as the Secret Canyon Adventure Tour does, allowing you a full three hours to compose your photos, find the perfect lighting, and appreciate your surroundings.
There are limited departure times offered for this tour in order to catch the best lighting for photography. Depending on booking, certain time-slots listed may not be available.
