Join photographer Nafees for a six-hour Bowen Island outing from Vancouver. Ride the ferry to Snug Cove, hike through forest and past waterfalls, borrow a DSLR if needed, and learn practical photography skills for cameras or phones. Pickup and complimentary tour photos are included.

“We enjoyed our photography tour in Gastown so much that we decided to book the Bowen Island Ferry, Hike, and Photography Tour. Nafees picked us up at our hotel and we parked at Horseshoe Bay. We took a short 20-minute ferry ride to Bowen Island and then went on a photography hike, where we continued learning and practicing composition skills and shooting in manual modes on our cameras. I highly recommend this tour!”
