International travelling

Rapid River is photographing in different nature resorts abroad among other things culture, landscapes, cities and villages, nature, excursion, fishing, canoeing and other nature activities. International traveling knowledge is based on photography trips around the world and operating as a tour guide. We consult companies that want to be aware of good known trends in nature traveling.

The main interest is now in Russia, in yet unknown resorts of Siberia. At the moment Tauno Kohonen is photographing a wide Siberia material for international use. Other main interests are in India, Tibet and the Himalayas. Development of traveling is observed also in Europe, California and New Zealand.

In cooperation is travel agency Kon-Tiki Tours that arranges trips to above-mentioned resorts.
