Photo Competition

More categories and more chances to win

We’re celebrating another wonderful year of our photo comp with the introduction of three new categories! So get creative with what you eat and enter ‘local bites’; get your groove on for the ‘festivals and events’ category; or dive into capturing your exploits for ‘active adventures’. Good luck!

How does it all work?

Travellers from all over the world are invited to send in their best travel snaps in digital form. You don't have to be a pro. You just have to have a keen eye and a great travel spirit.

The competition closes on 30 June each year. Entries received after this date are entered into the following year's competition. All winners are announced in our weekly email newsletter, Intrepid Express and are notified directly.

See below for entry and prize terms and conditions.
