About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- popsimina-100 contributionsPhotography tour – great experienceOne of my favorite thinks in Barcelona was this walking tour. Abundance in local history facts and rich photography tips make a unique experience. Andrei customize it for us, taking care of our necessities and explaining us how to improve our way of taking photos. We interacted all the time. Very personal treat. Thank you Andrei!Written August 14, 2019
- LuminitaBa0 contributionsGreat tourI went in this tour as I'm interested in history and my hustband owne a we camera and is was interested to learn to used it. In the end I learn a lot of photography tips and I played a lot with my Smartphone camera. Recommend it!Written August 3, 2019
- V6609XTmarct0 contributionsFabulous way to spend an afternoonMy wife and I were looking for a walking tour of the gothic quarter and stumbled on this tour which combines photography instruction and history of the area. Andrei was fantastic. Super knowledgeable and a great teacher. Strong recommendation.Written May 4, 2019
- 464travel_andr0 contributionsPhotography and culture lessonI have to admit I hesitated to go at first because I had little to no experience in photography. But it turned out to be a great decision because the tour is tailored to the participants' experience and it is not only a photography class, but also a history and culture tour. And lots of fun, too! Totally recommended!Written April 29, 2019
- Andreearr0 contributionsGreat tips and cool routeI took this tour with my partner and we had an amazing time. I had no previous photography knowledge but after the tour this definitely changed. Andrei, the guide, gives a quick theory lesson full of useful tips and examples which you later apply during the walk. The landmarks visited are harder to find on your own and are paired with great stories and professional photography advice. I would recommend it regardless of the type of camera you have, you can even use your phone's, one thing is sure - you will go home with some great holiday photos.Written April 3, 2019
- 1462140 contributionsEnriching ExperienceWe had an amazing time with Andrei and Valentina walking the various districts in and around Barcelona. Andrei ability to combine history, architecture and art opened our eyes to a personally very enriching experience and was worth much more than the cost. Valentina was able to give us insights and bring us to unique and small local shops where we found treasures far beyond what was offered in the typical tourists stores. We are not photographers by any stretch but left with amazing pictures thanks to advice given by AndreiWritten March 29, 2019

When in Barcelona in May 2019, I took two photography tours. This tour with Andrie and Valentina was clearly the better of the two in two ways:
1. Staying focused on the single purpose of the tour (and not trying to do a private photo shoot at the same time as the other tour operator did); and
2. Price, duration, and flexibility. The price was better. The duration went a little longer than advertised. I was able to do somethings "my way" as a semi-professional photographer.
What did I get:
- Some great company.
- A tour of the Gothic Quarter of Barcelona.
- Some great history lessons.
- Some new photography techniques and some pointers on minor things to which I was not paying close enough attention and made a difference.
Grab your cell phone, your point-and-shoot, your DSLR and take the tour! NO EXPERIENCE REQUIRED. It was fun.

I loved this! Andrei’s deep passion for photography shines through his teaching, plus his knowledge of the city made for a wonderfully unique tour of Barcelona. He also taught me about the tools on my camera so I can stop relying on the Auto function. I highly recommend this experience if you want to learn how to tour a city and view photography with a new perspective.

Andrei has a lot of Barcelona history knowledge and also he is a good teacher when is about photogrpahy.
We start the tour in front of Barcelona Cathedeal where he expained us about the photography and the composition rules. After that we start to practiced them and he guide us with individual advice
I liked he told us the stories of the place we visit and that helped us to build the story in our own photo.
Recommend it!

I booked the tour four my daughter (13y) passioned about photography and myself, and we were lucky to be just the 2 of us on the tour. We absolutely enjoyed it. We received very useful tips and advices for taking great pictures, pros and cons of different the photo equipments. All this together with interesting stories about Barcelona, while walking some narrow pitoresque back streets of the city.
Thank you Andrei for this great experience!

What a great guide and experience. We had a great time scurrying about some of the side streets of the gothic part of town. I was shown elements of this interesting area that I would normally have walked passed. It was raining in the morning quite heavily and I was offered another time out of courtesy but decided to go ahead with the tour anyway due to my tight schedule. I was still accommodated and the weather got better as the tour went along.

There is a list of times on the site. Though I think that there maybe some flexibility. Best to choose your day and than contact the guide.
