A photo walk is a photography dedicated walking activity that can have photography tuition along the way.
At Photowalks.pt, we organize photography walking tours in Lisbon and all around Portugal, ranging from a couple of hours to several days.
Photowalks.pt was started in 2017 and since then has received terrific reviews from our guests from around the world.
Our activities are great learning experiences where you can explore beautiful places such as Lisbon’s old neighborhoods or some of Portugal’s most amazing villages and landscapes while learning and improving your photography. Our activities only occur at the best times from the photographer’s point of view and are guided by experienced and knowledgeable professionals.
By the end, we say goodbye with great memories and also amazing images that you could improve by attending in person or online one of our Editing Workshops.
Our walking tours range from 2 to 3 hours to a full day in duration. The pace is always effortless, and we stop plenty of times for talking and shooting along our path. Although some trails can have a higher difficulty level, we make sure everybody can walk them and have a great time.
No, we can host in Portuguese, English, Spanish, and French.
