Personal Tutorial with a Professional - My tour group of 3 was small enough to feel like a private photography session. Miguel selected a route that included important sites as well as out of the way areas, all designed to provide interesting & compelling photographs. Although he is clearly very skilled as a professional, he was generous with advice for an amateur, & made sure we came away with a selection of images we couldn’t have taken on our own. Seeing Lisbon through his eyes made my experience richer & I hope to apply his lessons as I continue my travels.

One of the best Photo Guides in European cities - My husband is an avid hobby photographer with serious DSLR equipment and I am a purely hobby photographer with an iPhone! Both of us travel the world in search of photographic memories and our teen son comes along everywhere. We did two different walking tours with Miguel on our June trip to Lisboa. He is one of the BEST photographic guides that we have worked with in any of the European cities. He has a great eye for the best locations, adjusts on the fly based on picking up your interests and also adjusts as needed based on your complete itinerary in Lisboa. We did an early morning tour with him one day and he took us to some of the best locations and some very hidden spots too that we would not have discovered on our own. Next day, when we had booked an evening tour with him, he instead encouraged us to come to Cacilhas with him since we now knew our way around Lisboa and that would be unique. And it truly was!! He is also a truly gifted street and portrait photographer himself so it was super cool to pick up tips & tricks from him. One can always grow by learning from fellow photographers, and he definitely added to our skills!! Would happily spend time with him again in Lisboa.

Different view of Lisbon - Photographing Lisbon at the crack of dawn when the alleys are still semi-deserted is definitely a different way of visiting the city. My guide, Miguel, was very helpful and professional, giving me useful advice both on photography and on the particularities of the neighbourhoods we visited. Recommended!

Awesome walking tour! - I had a 17 hr layover in Lisbon. This was a sunrise walking tour. I’m so happy I did it! Miguel was great! The views were amazing! The area we were in had lots of hills so comfy wear shoes and be prepared to get your steps in.

Great photowalk - it was an early start for the sunrise tour. The streets were quite empty, so we got some great shots. Miguel gave me real helpful tips and feedback for taking pictures, we also went to places which I wouldn't have known about. This was the highlight of my stay in Lisbon, I would strongly recommend it.

Miguel is knowledgeable... - Miguel is knowledgeable and amazing! He brought us the best of Alfama. The best photographer tour I have ever had.

Great experience for the serious Photographer - My photo tour was set by my travel agent. Miguel was on time at my hotel. I had an immediate feeling of like,respect, and confidence in him. He is a highly knowledgeable photographer but a gentleman as well. He was helpful with settings and composition and locations but mostly shared his passion. He is very familiar with the hidden spots in Lisbon as well as beyond the confines of Lisbon. He was very free with his knowledge and recommendations. I would share more time with Miguel next time I am in Lisbon.

An experience I would highly recommend - Excellent walk. I opted for the early morning tour which meant it was less busy and made for some great photos in the morning light. Miguel was very knowledgeable in both photography and the local area. He gave great photography tips and recommendations for places to explore next. We went to places I would have almost certainly missed had I not took the walk with him. I would highly recommend this experience, whether you’re a keen photographer or just wanting to get good pictures from your travels.

Excellent walking tour with lot's to learn about photography - As I was spending a day solo in Lisbon, I wanted to take advantage of a private tour through Lisbon to learn more about the city while improving on my skills as an amateur photographer. I did an early morning tour with Miguel who is a great guide. We started our trip at one of the viewpoints to catch the first morning light and I learned about the advantage of using a tripod to get sharper shots, and then leisurely strolled through the old city. He knew all the nice spots to take a photo and I even got a really really cool photo from the famous yellow tram no. 28 :) But not only did he show me the nice places to take a picture of, he also told me a lot about how to use my camera settings better, about light, angles, aperture and shutter speed. After explaining, he made me try out the different settings and angles to actually experience the difference myself ... In short, he shared so much of his knowledge it was amazing. And all very understandable for me as an amateur. Also, and this was a really special experience: I saw an old lady at a window in one of the small alleyways. And I thought: Oh, what a wonderful photo that would be. And Miguel said: Go, ask her. I felt too shy but he insisted and finally I went to ask her. She was lovely, was happy to be photographed, told us that she was a bit famous because people always see her at her window and told us some more funny stories about her life. And I got the wonderful photo I so much wanted :))) I can fully recommend this tour to anyone who is keen to experience the city through his/her lens and to learn from someone who really knows what he's talking about and is super friendly. If solo or as a group, I believe you'll have a really good time with Miguel as your guide.

Photowalk - Miguel is a very knowledgeable guide and showed us around the Alfama district and close by. He had some interesting views to show us and we had an enjoyable morning with him.
