Drone Photography Tour

EXPLORE BALI FROM ABOVE AND UNLEASH YOUR AERIAL CREATIVITY

Are you an experienced drone pilot, a beginner just getting the hang of flying, or simply curious about drones but don’t yet own one?

We cater to all levels and will take you to some very special places at the right time of day to capture the light and get some unforgettable images. If you are new to Drone flying we can teach you some tips, tricks, and the do’s and don’ts of drone flying on the island. Even if your drone is still in the box or you’re curious to test your new one, we’re here to help.

Our instructors are professional photographers, so on private tours, you can bring your camera too for a mix of drone and camera photography instruction, if you wish, or bring your partner along. He or she is most welcome if they have a drone or not.

Our knowledgeable, friendly instructors are passionate about drone photography. Let’s explore the limitless possibilities of this exciting aspect of photography together, have fun, and learn.

Bali is undeniably one of the world’s best places for drone photography, featuring towering volcanoes, terraced rice fields, unique volcanic rims, breathtaking coastlines, and waterfalls. Many of Bali’s beautiful bays and beaches are framed by volcanoes as a backdrop. We know where to go and the best times of day to capture stunning images and video footage, and we know the places where it’s ok to put your drone up and those that aren’t.

We follow responsible and safe drone flying practices.

Customer Reviews

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"3 wonderful days to discover the local culture during the festive period before the day of silence. David allows you to discover Balinese culture away from the tourist circuits thus offering unrivalled photographic opportunities. His great knowledge of Indonesian traditions and his expertise as a professional photographer made this stay a total success. Do not hesitate to ask."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Dave Metcalf's photography tour of Bhutan, with Kolkata thrown in beforehand, in Feb-March 2026 was great. Good company, lots of variety of things to photograph and good hotels and food. I've been on quite a few workshops with Dave and they always are a success. If you need any technical assistance he is there to help you. This time we visited a Buddhist festival at Pukhara and got some great images. The local guide and driver were also very helpful. Thoroughly recommended."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"In Bali, David was our personal guide photographer and that is where we got to know him well. He is well organized, arrives on time and plans out the whole day. In fact I and my friend were very demanding and David would try to comply to our needs on a short notice. I highly recommend David as a fixer or a great photography teacher either way if you use his services, you will not be disappointed."

"I have joined David Metcalf on 4 tours, to Borneo, Sulawesi, Sumatra and the Mentawai islands. I can honestly say that these trips are life-changing experiences, opening my mind and heart to the diversity and beauty of humanity and the natural world. David expertly curates dynamic and fascinating programmes, offering rare opportunities to immerse in unique cultures and witness incredible ceremonies and everyday life."

"... I really recommand David Metcalf if you like to discover wonderful locations or discover the stunning Indonesian culture and its peoples. For sure I will come back in this incredible country and no matter how I will organize my next trip, I will definitely contact David."

"...He's a good guy and will tailor your day according to your skills. I am an avid amateur and experienced in landscape photography. I also love shooting people. We spent hours in a really cool market that no one but locals would know. What a day."
Sandi 16 September 2023
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"All I can say if you want to experience a beautiful sunrise over volcanoes, go to a very local market tourists rarely visit, have lunch in the home in a local village, and stop at many spots along the back roads, all the while taking incredible images, then this is the tour for you."
Ian C.28 July 2023
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"For any other photographers on the fence about which photo guide to go with, please consider David and/or his team (Nyoman). I know there are other photo guides out there (that are quite famous on Instagram) but they do not provide you the ability to adjust and dictate the flow of your itinerary..."

"Outstanding day, we had challenging conditions with the weather but my guide Nyoman was excellent and adjusted the tour's itinerary to suit the weather conditions. While early rain impacted some of the sites, we had great light as the sun broke through the rain... "

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"David is a very nice guy who is very knowledgeable about photography, local customers, and good photography spots. On my trip I got photograph and experience the way of life here in Bali. The driver Made was also wonderful and they both made me most welcome and I felt very safe as a solo woman traveler."
Clay5 February 2023
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"...Not only was David's itinerary a remarkable 10-day tour that kept us off the beaten path, but also it introduced us to exceptional people along the way. Thanks to David's particular relationships and philanthropic efforts in multiple Balinese communities, we were greeted with open arms -- and kitchens and homes!
Lisa A.15 November 2022
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"My wife and I partnered with David to bring a small group of photographers to Bali from the United States for a 9 day cultural photographic experience. This was our second trip to the beautiful Island of Bali and it far exceeded our expectations."
Jeff S.8 November 2022
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"My wife and I were part of a custom photography & cultural tour led by David. Some of us were experienced photographers, others not. David's connections with the locals and his understanding of Indonesian & Balinese culture were more than we ever could have expected, and this cannot be understated."
