An In-Depth Look at the Experience
What to Expect on Your Photo Tour
Once you book your session, the organizer will contact you to customize your itinerary. That’s a key perk—you’re not stuck with cookie-cutter locations. Instead, your photographer will plan a route based on your interests, whether that’s capturing the vibrant Old Town, the panoramic seaside views, or lesser-known spots that only locals know.
You’ll meet your photographer at a designated point, tailored to your preferences, and then set off. The photographers are described as highly experienced and personable, which makes a big difference in how relaxed and natural your photos will look. Several reviews emphasize how friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable the guides are. One reviewer said, “Elina is a amazing photographer. She is so friendly and we immediately felt at ease with her.”
The Style of Photos
The photos are described as contemporary and candid, meaning they aim to capture your genuine expressions rather than stiff, posed shots. This style works well for families, couples, or groups who want authentic memories rather than overly staged images. Many travelers appreciate this approach—one reviewer noted how “over 146 photos to choose from, and every single one was just too good.”
More Great Tours NearbyLocations and Timing
The beauty of this tour is that it’s completely customizable, so you won’t be stuck with a preset list. You could choose iconic sights like the Promenade des Anglais or the Castle Hill for sweeping views, or opt for more intimate, tucked-away corners of the Old Town.
Since the session lasts from 1 to 3 hours, you can fit it into a morning wander or an afternoon break. The actual timing is flexible, and your meeting point will be arranged based on your needs. The shorter 1-hour option is great if you’re short on time, but many reviews suggest that even an hour results in a surprising number of beautiful shots.

On the other hand, if you’re budget-conscious and don’t mind taking your own photos or have specific entries or food plans, you might want to weigh the added expense.
