“Juca was amazing! He knew all the hidden spots to take the best photos and was so accommodating the entire time. He is an excellent teacher. I know my photographs will improve because of the tips he shared. Juca shared island history with us so we learned a lot about Terceira, too. We finished the day with some great memories and photographs to remember them by. Huge hug from Michigan!”

He made me feel comfortable in front of the camera (which is not usually my thing), and the photos turned out beautiful! What made the experience even more special was how much he shared about Lisbon – lots of fun facts, hidden corners and local stories I wouldn’t have discovered on my own. Highly recommended for anyone who wants great memories and a relaxed, authentic experience. Thank you so much – I’ll definitely book again when I’m back in town!”

4.Private Highlights Photography Tour in Lisbon

★★★★★★★★★★3.0 · 8 reviews · from $41

“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.”

“We have used Flytographer all over and have always had great experiences. But I think our shoot with Claudia tops them all! This was a last minute trip and my husband wanted to do a Flytographer as well. I was on the fence as we had one booked for an early April trip. I am SO glad we did. Claudia was AMAZING with our 4 and 6 year old. Shooting with kids is never easy, but especially young ones who are jet lagged. Claudia never made us feel like she was rushed or annoyed with the kids. At the end, she recommended a playground nearby for them to enjoy. And…”
