My photo tour with Lisbon Photo was challenging but very interesting. We explored a new part of Lisbon and shot B&W photos on digital and film cameras. My sessions with Miguel has always been inspiring and enjoyable.

Review of: Lisbon Photo Private Night Tour
This was my third photo tour with Miguel at Lisbon Photo and, once again, it was a fantastic experience. Miguel showed me great photography spots in Chiado that I never would have found on my own. His enthusiasm for the city and photography made it even more fun. He has an exceptional ability to see the perfect composition and to share expert tips on night photography that will help me long after the tour. If you want to capture the essence of Lisbon at night, don't miss this tour.…

Review of: Lisbon Photo Private Day Tour
I was looking for a relaxed city break activity so I booked the Lisbon Photo Private Day Tour. It turned out to be such a great experience that I booked for the following day too! I had some basic knowledge of photography before the trip, and brought my camera along (though the tour would suit beginners and mobile phone photography too). What made Miguel's tour so special is that he is not only a brilliant photographer, but he is also Lisbon born and bred so he has a wonderful inspiring knowledge of the city and knows all the best places and hidden gems for original photos. He’s a real gentleman too, and is good at adapting the tour to make sure that the customer gets the opportunity to spend as much time as is needed to get the shot they want along the way. On my day tour, he shared his knowledge of Lisbon’s history and culture as we walked around between shots. With his camera and city knowledge, he also knows what time of the day to be at each location for the best natural light, something that would usually be a matter of chance for a tourist like me with a terrible sense of direction, at least this way I did not get lost haha. And last, but not least, Miguel knows the best hidden cafes for authentic rejuvenating pasteis de nata and proper Lisbon coffee, the places where the locals go. You just can’t beat that kind of inside knowledge. On the photo tour, I took pictures of people, street art, architecture, and doorways in Alfama, Castelo, Mouraria, Graca, Baix and Bairro Alto, and picked up new photography tips along the way. I couldn’t believe how much was packed in - everything was so perfectly organised yet it all felt so easygoing. I would recommend this tour to everyone who wants to see and learn about Lisbon through the eye of the lens and in the local way. I hope to return in the future to try the night tour too. Thanks for a great experience Lisbon Photo! Até logo Lisboa!…

Review of: Lisbon Photo Private Night Tour
Miguel is not only a great guy but an accomplished photographer and did everything to help me ( a professional photographer) shortcut to the absolute best and most picturesque places I needed to be. My needs as a professional were a little more specific than most I think, and Miguel was able to adapt the tour to exactly what I was looking for. He was tireless and completely bilingual and able to turn on a dime when my needs changed. Plus he knew all the best cafes and restaurants of the locals so we avoided the tourist traps. It was an honor to work with him and I look forward to seeing him on my next trip to Lisbon, which I hope will be soon!…

I would highly recommend Miguel to both beginner photographers and to more advanced. I am a more advanced photographer and really enjoyed that there was still a learning opportunity (Miguel has a very graphic style which is not my norm, so it was quite interesting.) Also, we spent the entire time outside and in masks, and I felt very safe, even during these stranger times. Miguel knows Lisbon well, and not only chats with many of the locals while walking, but can tell stories and the history of the city. I would highly recommend him!…
