Adam Monk Photo Tours & Images Gallery

This year, for the first time since 2012 I am not taking a photo tour to Bhutan.  It’s not that I am sick of Bhutan,  quite the contrary, I enjoy Bhutan more each time I go.  It was the roads…  The extensive road works from one end of the country to the other were making the driving somewhat unpleasant.  The good news is that the road project is well underway and is due to be completed by the end of this year.

The other good news is that I am running another 15 day photo tour to Bhutan for 2018.  As if that were not enough, I am also taking along special guest photographer Paul Hoelen as an additional Photo Guide.  Paul is a highly acclaimed and very talented professional photographer residing in Tasmania.  He has many years of experience guiding tours and teaching photography skills, and he is a lot of fun to hang out with.  If you would like to read more about Paul and the plan for the 2018 Bhutan Photo Tour click HERE>>

After having it on my “Must Visit” list for years I finally spent 6 weeks travelling around in Tasmania in January/February this year.  On the one hand it was worth the wait, but on the other I kept thinking “Why did I wait so long?”  Tasmania is absolutely incredible, actually that is understating it…
