Photo Trips · PHOTOGRAPHY TOURS IN LISBON
This is the shortlist you would send a friend: 5 photography tours in Lisbon worth the money, each with its price, its traveller verdict and the one thing to know before you commit.
Join Pedro, Vasco, or another English, Portuguese, or German-speaking guide for a two-hour street art walk from BessaHotel Liberdade toward Lisbon’s castle hill. Explore old streets and alleys, hear how street art grew in the city, photograph murals, and finish back at the meeting point.
“Pedro is kind and sweet! He showed us the best art in Lisbon! It was very interesting and fun! Thank you Pedro!”
Spend about three hours walking Lisbon’s Alfama, Graça, and São Vicente with photographer-guide Carlos Reveles. Bring your own camera or phone and learn how to read light, frame street scenes, photograph trams in motion, and work with viewpoints, churches, and everyday neighborhood life.
“Carlos is friendly and knowledgeable. He was generous with his time and experience. Saw lots of unique sites and the pace was just right.”
Spend 2.5 hours with a private photographer-guide exploring Lisbon’s viewpoints, Bairro Alto, Pink Street, Commerce Square, Rua Augusta, and Rossio. You’ll receive help finding good photo locations, enjoy a drink at Pensão Amor, and finish where you started.
“We were at the meeting point on time and no guide showed up. I called and they said they had cancelled our tour because of “a problem with the guide”. No one ever told us ahead of time, and we wasted an Uber ride to the meeting point. My credit card was charged the day before and I had a confirmation number. Very disappointing.”
Meet Lisbon-born photographer Carlos at Chafariz das Moiras for a three-hour Alfama photo walk. Learn composition, light, and street photography with a camera or smartphone, then finish near Sé Cathedral after exploring scenic viewpoints and quieter lanes.
“This was a good fun activity and Carlos was a great guy. He gave us some tips on technique and took us to some great spots to get some interesting shots. We got to see some interesting parts of Alfama and not just the usual tourist stuff. A really enjoyable morning.”
Join a Lisbon-born photographer for a private two-hour walk from Miradouro da Senhora do Monte through Alfama to Largo da Madalena. Learn golden-hour, low-light, street, and motion photography with your camera, film camera, or smartphone.
“Very knowledgeable and friendly tour leader. I got some amazing night photos and learnt some knew tricks with my iphone”
