Fun and interesting photography tour - I had a fantastic photo tour with Miguel. He gave me some great photo tips and took us to some great locations for street and landscape photography. Miguel shared with us both his knowledge of photography and the history of the area. I highly recommend this interesting and fun tour.

See Lisbon from a different point of view - The Cacilhas tour with Miguel is essential once you have done his other tours in Lisbon. From Cais Sodre, we stopped at a pier with views of the April 25 bridge before boarding the ferry to Cacilhas. Once across we walked along the waterfront from the docks to Quinta da Arealva. Other points of interest are the panoramic views of the bridge and Lisbon and the local town and market. I greatly enjoyed the morning walk with Miguel and appreciate his valuable instruction and ideas for meaningful images.

Great time exploring Lisbon! - I spent a late afternoon and early evening with Miguel and had a great time seeing some areas I likely wouldn't have found on my own. Miguel was very accommodating and flexible with his schedule to help me maximize where we went during my short time in Lisbon, which I really appreciated. Plus, he's a phenomenal photographer and gave some great advice throughout the tour. Definitely recommend booking an experience with Miguel when in Lisbon!

Highlight of our trip - We had a wonderful time with Miguel who showed us Lisbon through the camera lens. We got the best pictures possible and visited hidden corners that we would have never found on our own. We enjoyed it so much that booked the second tour with him visiting the southern bank of the river. Even more amazing shots and lots of memories!

Cacilhas photo tour - I decided to do the discover Cacilhas tour as I really enjoyed the Discover Lisbon private tour with Miguel. This was an area I wouldn't have thought about going to on my own. Miguel is very knowledgeable & I learned a lot about the local area. I really enjoyed walking around the market, and along the banks of the Tagus river. Great area for photos.

Bespoke experience! - I had the opportunity to do the Private Tour - Discover Cacilhas with a Photographer program.
In addition to Miguel's friendliness and total availability and his knowledge of the place, we also had the opportunity to share more technical and conceptual knowledge about photography.
I strongly recommend doing the Private Tour program at PhotoWalks!!!
Thanks Miguel And see you in next tour ;-)
