Commencing in 2008 are the Bluedog Vanuatu Photography Tours!

Bluedog is proud to announce it has teamed up Vanuatu Custom Travel (a specialist professional travel company) to offer three tours to the South Pacific's magical islands of Vanuatu. Vanuatu Custom Travel is committed to professional, exciting, and ethical tourism practices that deeply respect local customs.

On these tours you will experience rare and inspiring eco-cultural-adventure, tribal tourism, be hosted by small local village communities in exotic parts of Vanuatu and go to places only permitted by taking one of these tours. During these tours you will experience meeting and supporting grass roots tribal communities - very unique and rare people who have little money but great wealth. You will see it shining in their smiles and laughter, their culture, songs, dances, and the way they live their everyday lives.

Non-photograpy partners are welcome to join. Dates will be advertised on this page and through the Bluedog E-newlsletter.
