We don’t compete. We inspire. (Source: Internet)You want to shoot Sapa’s golden terraces at 5:30 a.m. with nobody in frame.
You want a private boat at Trang An before the crowds arrive.
You want to photograph fishermen casting nets at sunrise in Hoi An.
And you want to do it with 8–12 other solo photographers who won’t photobomb your shot (but will share their secret Lightroom presets over coffee).
That’s exactly what Legend Travel Group delivers.
70–80 % of our photography tour guests travel solo – meaning you’re surrounded by people who understand the words “just one more shot”.
All tours: max 12 travelers • 70–80 % solo • professional photographer guide • no single supplement • only 10 % deposit
