Miguel is the Real Deal! - Honestly, this tour exceeded all expectations. It was engaging, surprising, pacy and yet still and even a bit reverent. Miguel clearly loves his city and his insights and depth of local history layered on a pretty intense photography class. We actually learned techniques and ways to observe and to distill singular elements from a scene, leaving with fantastic photos. Bonus: three teens, one joining at the tail end and two adults with wildly different personalities snd every one of us was engaged and energetic throughout.

Miguel was a treat! - Had a great time with a very nice photographer, Miguel. Knowledgeable about Lisbon and photography. We wandered some of the more off the beaten path locales. Traded photography tips with one another. Had a great time! Highly recommend this tour with him.

Phototogtaphy 101 while sightseeing - Miguel was very knowledgable about the history, the town and told many tales about the history of Lisbon while teaching you the basics of photography and making sure that the knowledge is retained while taking wonderful photos. He was professional during the tour.

Amazing morning in the Alfama - We booked a morning tour with Miguel. We've been to Lisbon three times, and have taken a tour with Miguel on each visit. We met at Rossio, and within 5 minutes we were snaking through tiny, picturesque walkways. Miguel just loves showing people his city, and how to photograph it. Regardless of your level of interest in photography, Miguel's energy gets everyone exciting about snapping photos. I do photography as a hobby, so it was fun to see Miguel get my friend using a smartphone, excited about snapping pics. It was a wonderful tour. I can't imagine visiting Lisbon without taking a tour with Miguel.

10 out of 10 would recommend - Our guide was great at personalizing our tour. My travel partner is no spring chicken and so our guide was constantly checking in to adjust the intensity of the walking and gave chances to take breaks. We also are extreme beginners when it comes to photography experience and the guide easily "dumbed down" the technical aspects of photography for us which we really appreciated. We saw great spots in Lisbon and took some great photos!

Full Day in Lisbon - Booked a full day tour of Lisbon with Miguel, it was a beautiful day. Gave me some things to think about like making simplicity out of chaos, as well as some others points to consider when making photos. Showed some tips when using the mobile phone, besides the typical vacation photos. Dont hesitate to contact him and you will have a history lesson as well.

A Perfect Photo Experience with Lisbon Photo – Even After 10 Years! - I had the incredible opportunity to reconnect with Miguel after returning to Lisbon a decade after my first visit. My initial photo tour with him left such a lasting impression that I knew I had to reach out again – and I’m so glad I did! Miguel is not only a true expert in uncovering Lisbon’s hidden gems, but he is also an outstanding photographer with a remarkable ability to share his knowledge. His guidance goes beyond just showing you where to shoot; he generously offers advice, technical tips, and creative insights that elevate your photography skills. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced photographer, Miguel’s passion and expertise make the experience both educational and inspiring. Beyond photography, what makes a tour with Miguel so special is the atmosphere he creates. It was a fantastic experience filled with great conversations, laughter, and, of course, amazing shots. It felt like catching up with an old friend while rediscovering the magic of Lisbon through my lens. If you’re looking for a truly enriching and fun photography experience in Lisbon, Lisbon Photo with Miguel is an absolute must! Highly recommended.

What a wonderful way to explore a city - Miguel loves photography and he loves his home town. Exploring Lisbon together with him is an overwhelming experience. Be prepared to get lost between the most beautiful viewpoints and the least expected picture-perfect backyards. Miguel not only leads you through this beautiful city with total commitment (and a LOT of energy), he also explains and gives you tips and hints both about Lisbon and professional photography. So, it is a city tour with a perfect twist! Absolutely recommend!

Super Patient, Knows the But Spots - Miguel knows all the best photogenic spots, places you would never find on your own. He was super patient, and showed us the fine points of using manual settings.
