Stunning coastal landscapes & towns

Porto

The beautiful city of Porto is the second largest city in Portugal. Situated on the Douro River, its incredible beauty was recognized and listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is a picturesque city with a rich history, vibrant culture, and stunning architecture.

The Ribeira District is the historic region located along the Douro River. Its splendid colorful buildings, narrow streets, and charming squares make it particularly photogenic, especially during sunrise and sunset.

Additionally, the Douro River and its many bridges offer fantastic views of the city and river. Our guide will show you all the best angles and viewpoints to shoot from, along with the best time of day.

Ria de Aveiro

Aveiro is a wonderful city set along a coastal lagoon known as Ria de Aveiro. It is often referred to as the “Venice of Portugal,” as the canals and bridges resemble the famous city. This is a charming place famed for its picturesque canals, colorful boats, and fascinating architecture.

The lovely boats lining the canal are known as moliceiro boats, and are all painted in vibrant colors. These are perfect scenes to photograph in the early morning or late afternoon when the light is soft.

The city itself boasts some exquisite examples of Art Nouveau architecture, especially in the area known as the “Beira-Mar.”

The Sé Catedral de Aveiro is a notable landmark with its distinctive bell tower.

Lisbon

Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, is a vibrant and picturesque city with a rich history, stunning architecture, and diverse neighborhoods.

During our photo tour we will photograph the peaceful estuary of the beautiful Sado, where we will have Carrasqueira as the dominant landscape, and the famous Vasco da Gama bridge.

The Algarve

While the Algarve is famous for its holiday resorts, it’s also a Mecca for photographers. This stunning corner of the Iberian Peninsula contains some of Portugal’s most compelling rock formations, dramatic cliffs and incredible views from their high ledges.

Feedback from our clients

Photo Tour Attended: Tuscany in Autumn
Review by Leona

This was a trip that was on my bucket list for a very long time. The trip was promoted on FB and it delivered everything and more than it described. Claudia went above and beyond to make it a trip of a life time. Accommodations were first class. Outings were well planned - meal locations were varied and took advantage of local food and restaurants. A first class trip and would recommend it to anyone that loves photography.

Photo Tour Attended: Azores - The Hawaii of Europe!
Review by Venkataraman

The workshop was wonderful. there was lot of hands on education. The locations chosen were very good and the chosen timings were great. The group was small (only 5) which made it a very personal workshop.
