I toured the high mountains of Switzerland for ten days in 2019 and a weekend of astro photography in Bend, Oregon with Christian and Regula. Both were amazing experiences with their photo expertise and amazing hospitality, as well as extremely well planned itineraries. I highly recommend tours with Cascade Center of Photography and will tour with them again.

We went on the ATV ride through the forest to the lava lands. We had our adult kids with us. None of us had ever been on an ATV ride. We all had a blast. It was so much fun. Mike took care of us, and made us all feel safe. He was great in answering questions, and overall just having fun. I would recommend this to anyone visiting the bend area. We are so glad we did it!!
