Hear It From Our Happy Shutterbugs

Real stories from fellow photographers

Marina Lan United States

My family (husband, 9 year-old child) and I participated in a photo tour with Andy in February. We enjoyed it so much, and decided to come back a few months later, in April! Our experience was absolutely mind blowing. Andy took us to the most unique places we would never have been able to find or visit on our own

Julie Kirby United Kingdom

Andy ensured we had the best opportunities to capture Costa Rica’s wildlife and landscapes. He works closely with selected local wildlife guides and photographic help was on hand if you needed it.

Gary Lloyd United Kingdom

Incredible and moving trip. Physis put together a tailor made experience that exceeded our expectations - both photographically but also showing the very best of Costa Rica.

Erika Saner Switzerland

Our wish was to photograph various wildlife (birds, mammals, reptiles, insects) in Costa Rica during three weeks. We quickly gave up organizing this ourselves. But we didn't want a group trip. We found the perfect solution with Andy Bezara from Physis Photo Tours
