Aerials Of The Icelandic Highlands 2027 Drone Photo Workshop (7-14 August)
WAITLIST
Join Jeroen Van Nieuwenhove on an exclusive, small group, drone-focused trip of a lifetime to the unspoilt highlands of Iceland! The desolate Icelandic highlands is an otherworldly area, which is challenging to traverse. The group photographs remote & hard-to-reach locations such as vast black sand deserts, lush green mountains, crater lakes and much more. Most of these locations are perfect for aerial photographs, so the focus is primarily on drone photography. The Central Highlands is the pinnacle of Icelandic landscape photography, and staying in a small group leaves maximum flexibility to optimise shooting opportunities.
The 7 to 14 August workshop catches the turn of the season. By early August the sun drops low enough for proper golden light around 22:00, which is why mid-August highland images look so different from late-June ones. The group is capped at three, the route stays flexible, and the two bases sit close to where the flying happens.
07/08/2027 - 14/08/2027 | 8 days/7 nights | 9250 Euro per person | 0 out of 3 spots available | Must own & be able to fly a drone
The organising, fully licensed, travel agency behind this photography workshop is Iceland Travel. The applicable terms & conditions can be found on a separate page.The package price is set in Icelandic Króna, so the euro figure above is approximate and moves with the exchange rate.

Please note that the itinerary is always subject to change depending on the weather conditions.
Day 1 (07/08/2027) – Arrival in Reykjavík
The workshop begins when the group meets at the hotel in Reykjavík on the first evening. To break the ice, everyone heads out for a welcome dinner, a chance to get to know each other and to run through the plans for the coming days.
Day 2-6 (08-12/08/2027) – Exploring the Icelandic Highlands
The group sets out to explore the lesser frequented areas of the Icelandic interior highlands from two hotels: one on the northern side & one on the southern side of the photogenic Southern Icelandic Highlands. Amongst other locations, the group photographs a geothermal mountain range, incredible river patterns, black sand deserts, lush green mountains, big crater lakes and much more. Locations are chosen based on weather and road conditions. Working from only two bases of operation, and a capable vehicle, leaves a lot of flexibility in the itinerary to get the most out of the trip.
Day 7 (13/08/2027) – Return to Reykjavík
The group makes its way back to Reykjavík with a detour through the Highlands. In the evening there is a goodbye dinner before everyone parts ways.
Day 8 (14/08/2027) – Departure from Iceland
On this final morning, you get to enjoy breakfast at the hotel before setting off.
Drone permits that cover each participant in all relevant areas
Transportation to locations (based on conditions) in a modified 4×4 Land Cruiser on 33 inch tyres (with snorkel) or similar
Access to a power station during the day to charge drone batteries & remotes
Professional photographic tuition and guidance from Jeroen

A drone with at least 3 spare batteries (if you are unsure what drone to bring, make sure to read the drone buyer’s guide!)

Charging equipment for your drone
Laptop or tablet with Adobe Lightroom if you want to edit your photos on the go. If the weather keeps the group out of the field, there is usually time to edit at the accommodation
Optional – A DSLR or mirrorless camera
Optional – Lenses that cover the 16- 200mm range (14-400m is even better)
Optional – Tripod
Recommended Clothing
A variety of different layers (The weather in Iceland changes a lot)
Good waterproof boots
A hat and thin summer gloves
Warm clothes and wool underwear
Wind/rain shell jacket and pants
Need a more detailed idea of what outdoor apparel & photography gear to bring? Make sure to read this detailed article!
Almost every location on this trip can be flown from where the vehicle stops, so there is rarely any hiking involved. Occasionally the group walks a short distance to get clear of unfavourable wind or to find a better launch point. The ground underfoot can be uneven and slippery.
What Drone Experience Do You Need?
You need to bring your own drone and be able to fly and control it confidently before you arrive. You do not need any drone photography experience, and that is exactly what Jeroen teaches on the trip. A good mix of photographic experience in the group means everyone learns from each other. The highlands are remote and the weather moves fast, so practise flying, landing and navigating in open space before the workshop. Workshop participants also get a discount to the Drone Photography Masterclass after signing up.
Choosing the right photography workshop is about more than just visiting iconic locations. It’s about experience, safety, timing, and personal guidance. Below you’ll find honest reviews from photographers who have joined me on landscape, wildlife & drone photo workshops in Iceland, Greenland and other locations. These testimonials reflect real experiences in small groups, hands-on instruction in challenging conditions, and the level of care Jeroen aims to bring to every workshop.
I had the pleasure of being part of the West/North Iceland 2026 workshop with Jeroen and Mads Peter Iversen. I had already met them both on a workshop in Antarctica and signed up for this smaller workshop without any hesitation. The small group was perfect for continuing my photography eduction and I learned a lot more than I thought I would. Jeroen made himself available to help with settings, composition, and even drone photography techniques whenever I needed him. He’s easy to be with and makes any level photographer comfortable when in a learning situation. Our small group was fun to be with and a large part of that was due to the personalities of both Jeroen and Mads. Thanks for a wonderful week to everyone on this workshop. I highly recommend attending one of Jeroen's workshops without hesitation.

Great trip for aspiring and seasoned photographers alike. Kind and honest hosts, great food, and best of all fantastic photo opportunities. Highly recommend.

It was a fantastic experience, I learned a lot and the engagement with the workshop leaders and other attendees was excellent. I would highly encourage anyone to book a workshop on Jeroen's website. I am planning to rebook with him in the future to explore the highlands.

It was a fantastic, intensive, and highly varied week. Anyone who loves Iceland and wants to delve deeper into drone photography simply has to take part in a workshop like this. Jeroen is a true professional with excellent equipment. His 4x4 took us everywhere, his large DJI battery kept our drones in the air, and his Starlink kept us connected even in the most remote locations.

I've attended many photography workshops over the years, but Jeroen's aerials workshop stands out as one of the most rewarding experiences I've ever had. Jeroen is not only an exceptional drone photographer but also an outstanding instructor, and his ability to combine technical expertise with artistic vision made every session inspiring. Every day was filled with breathtaking locations, valuable insights and a genuine passion for helping each participant improve. I arrived in Iceland with almost no experience flying drones, and in just one week my confidence grew from 1 to 100. I wholeheartedly recommend this experience to anyone who wants to take their drone photography to the next level.

I attended Jeroen´s Aerials of the Icelandic Highlands Workshop in August ´26 which was well organised and a great experience. Being a small group of only 3 participants, Jeroen was able to provide individual attention. I gained confidence in flying my drone beyond my comfort zone.

I recently completed a photography workshop in the Highlands with Jeroen, and it exceeded all my expectations. Jeroen's knowledge of Iceland's interior is amazing, from navigating rough F-roads and tricky weather conditions to putting us in the exact right spot at the right time for incredible light. Going into the trip, my drone skills were fairly beginner-level, but Jeroen was fantastic at giving me hands-on guidance, composition advice and technical tips, while also giving me the space I needed to practice on my own. Over the course of the week, my flying and aerial photography improved by leaps and bounds. We had a small, nimble and lighthearted group and Jeroen was the perfect leader!

I have admired Jeroen's work for a long time, so I joined the Aerials of the Icelandic Highlands workshop with very high expectations. His knowledge of the Highlands is exceptional, and his flexibility in adapting the workshop to the weather meant we were always in the right place at the right time. Driving through remote highland tracks, crossing rivers and reaching places that very few people ever see was an unforgettable experience. My biggest personal takeaway was the confidence I gained as a drone pilot, flying distances I would never have thought possible and in conditions I would previously never have considered taking off in. I returned home with images I'm genuinely proud of.

This was the second workshop with Jeroen. Same three customers from last year expressed the desire to do another aerial drone workshop in the Icelandic Highlands. Jeroen managed to fit in an extra custom made workshop for us this July. Jeroen took us to locations we didn’t manage to visit last year. Although many of the highland roads were still unusually closed, Jeroen was very flexible in checking roads and weather, and discussing all options with us. This was again a highly successful workshop. Jeroen was always very helpful giving us drone operating tips and showing us the locations and possible compositions prior to launching our own drones. En route we also had the opportunity to stop briefly at some of the iconic Icelandic waterfalls. Jeroen is very knowledgeable and a very skilled 4X4 driver on the highland roads and river crossings. It was great having everything planned for us in advance. Another highly successful workshop and we all want to go again next year.

I signed up for the puffin workshop after a disappointing experience in Ireland, where the puffins were always too far away to photograph well. That definitely isn’t the case on Grímsey. A great location is only half the equation. The other half is knowing how to photograph it, and that’s where Jeroen truly excels. The highlight for me was the daily image review sessions, discussing editing, cropping, and selecting the strongest frame from a burst. Jeroen has an exceptional eye for the things that matter. I arrived in Iceland hoping to come home with at least a single portrait of a puffin carrying fish in its bill. Instead, I came home with what feels like an entire puffin portfolio.

I can highly recommend the Winter in Iceland photo workshop; it was a great experience. The trip was run very professionally by Jeroen and Mads, and the other participants were interesting and great fun, which made for a great group. Apart from advice on getting the best compositions and techniques at each location, there was also some important safety information given out. I thought that was very good bearing in mind how dangerous Iceland can be (Black Sand Beach in particular). Two things which I found particularly useful on this trip were Wellington Boots and micro spike type crampons-essential in many places. I took my drone and had many fantastic opportunities to fly in some amazing locations, so I would definitely recommend bringing one. All in all a fantastic week!

I can highly recommend Jeroen's photography workshops! I recently had the pleasure of joining his winter tour through Iceland and it was wonderful. The tour was very well organised (a helpful booklet ahead of the tour, great hotels, a clean and new car, enough space for luggage, clear communication on what to expect of each day). Jeroen is a careful and good driver, which I appreciated in winter conditions. He and Mads planned all our days with the optimised photo spots for each day's weather, realistic driving times on the road and sufficient coffee breaks. Both Jeroen and Mads are fun to travel with and wonderful coaches, always making sure to explain the possibilities of each location, what to watch out for and giving suggestions for improvement, while at the same time allowing for enough creative freedom for each of their clients. All in all, I had an amazing time, and look forward to joining further tours in the future.

What an amazing workshop in Southern Iceland. Fantastic scenery, a great group of people but most importantly, superb support from Jeroen and Mads. They knew precisely where to take us for the best photographic opportunities and when we were on location they provided really useful help and guidance. The banter in the evenings was also great fun - what else can you ask for! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend going on a workshop with Jeroen and Mads.

JVN provided an amazing experience full of useful skills, tips, guidance and knowledge. This workshop helped me level up my photography capabilities whilst immersing myself in an amazing landscape, one that will leave you in awe. The adventure started the first night of the workshop and did not end until leaving the hotel for the plane ride home. At every step of the way, Jeroen was there to offer friendly and compassionate guidance about how to take my own photography, videography and drone skills to the next level. I would highly recommend JVN for anyone at any stage in your photography aspirations, novice to expert. The investment is well worth the value received; new skills, widened perspective, new friends, and capturing life in such an amazing landscape!

I spent 8 days on a workshop led by Jeroen to Western Greenland. My experience was absolutely delightful from end to end. Given the limited infrastructure in Greenland, Jeroen as a planner had anticipated so many ``what ifs`` that he always had an alternative plan if/when something came up. His attention to all the details for our trip was amazing. The accommodations, food, transportation, and activities were all superb. As a teacher he was patient and supportive. He also worked hard to create unique photographic opportunities for us - both landscape and wildlife. His passion and enthusiasm is infectious, as is his sense of humor. As a woman in my 60's, I always felt so safe with him as our leader. I also spent a day with him up in the highlands of Iceland where he worked tirelessly to put us in the best position(s) and in the best light and helped me capture the most insane landscape shots with my new drone. Jeroen is a wonderful human being and great fun to be with. I definitely plan to go on another of his fabulous workshops in the near future!

Just been on a workshop with Jeroen and Mads to West and North Iceland. Amazing trip made all the better by JVN's organisational skills, photographic vision and sense of humour. We were a group of nine with mixed abilities and he always had time for those both at the start of their photographic journey and the more experienced. This was my second time in Iceland and the epic scenery needs to be seen with your own eyes to be believed. If you are even thinking about it, just do it and I recommend JVN.

Jeroen puts on a first class workshop. His drone coaching alone brings tremendous value. Unlike the saturated and competitive land based photography market, great drone/aerial photography instruction is hard to come by. In just a few days I learned new skills, pushed my personal envelope and gained a new level of confidence. That said, the land based opportunity was available all day, every day. The full agenda hit amazing waterfalls and iconic locations. Both Jeroen and Mads were readily available to assist at any level catering to both the professional and those with less experience. Most importantly, the trip was fun, upbeat and positive , even on those few days the weather didn't cooperate. The hotels were super comfortable and the food was great. If looking for a workshop from a local pro with local knowledge, I highly recommend taking one with Jeroen.

We just returned from North/West Iceland. What an amazing adventure! Jeroen was an amazing host and guide (and driver) and truly went out of his way to make sure everyone on the trip was not only taken care of from the point of view of comfort with their accommodations and daily needs, but also made sure to help each participant elevate their photography and drone skills. He was accompanied on this trip by Mads Peter Iverson who complemented Jeroen’s skills as well. Both Jeroen and Mads went out of their way to take care of even the most difficult participants, never acting demeaning and always teaching. I can’t think of a better way to see Iceland and learn photography in an immersive and nourishing environment. I highly recommend this adventure!

I attended Jeroen's Autumn in West/North Iceland Photo Workshop and couldn't be more pleased. In addition to being a world class camera and drone photographer, Jeroen excels at guiding a group tour. He did an excellent job in managing the logistics of the workshop and had the perfect balance of offering photo suggestions without being condescending. I look forward to attending another of his workshops in the near future.

Jeroen really cares about the experience that you have on his workshops. He has impeccable organisation and communication prior to and during the workshop. Jeroen actively sought feedback afterwards, which demonstrates to me that he is constantly working towards providing the best experience for participants. He handled one difficult situation that came up unexpectedly on this trip with grace and made sure the impact of this on the group was minimal. The photographic opportunities we had in East Greenland were incredible. As a total newbie to drone flying, I felt supported and encouraged to venture out of my comfort zone and as a result, I learned so much and captured some amazing photos that I am really proud of. The crew of the boat was fantastic, making sure we were safe and comfortable at all times. The food was excellent. All of these little touches curated by Jeroen made this workshop an incredible experience beyond taking photos.
