Unfortunately it was a little raining and overcast, but our photos still turned out very good!”

Review of Venice’s private photo shoot and gondola ride, with practical advice on price, timing, pickup, photo quality, and who should book.

We were in Carnival costume so was stopped every few minutes by other tourists wanting to take our picture. He patiently waited as we were celebrities for a few minutes. The gondola ride was so amazing. I can’t hardly wait to see the pictures.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 57 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $181

Review of Venice’s private 3-hour photo walk with Stefano, including quiet streets, photography tips, local stories, pricing, timing, and booking advice.

“Stefano led us on the most wonderful 3-hour photo walking tour of Venice. We, including our teenage and tween sons and (toddler) daughter, as well as grandma, found his tips and stories so helpful and informative. He helped make Venice come alive for us. More importantly (for a family of six with an older individual AND a 2.5 year old), Stefano was very patient and engaging, modifying his tour itinerary to accomodate our much slower pace while keeping everyone engaged with framing and taking wonderful phone photos of some of the best views of Venice that only a born-and-bred Venetian (and photojournalist) like Stefano can recommend. We highly, highly recommend…”

And Mario was fantastic. He really helped me with the artsy side of my photography and was able to help me take better pictures of our holiday.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 46 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $204

Learn camera skills while photographing Venice landmarks, sunset, and night scenes on a private three-hour lesson with a professional guide.

“Things didn’t go quite as planned (a nice way of saying “camera trouble”) but we made the most of it. I’m more of a hands-on learner and never knew where to start with this camera after moving up from a bridge-type from a different company, so let it languish in a drawer for years. This tour was a great opportunity to figure things out with some expert guidance, and also see some locations I might not otherwise have found. I booked this experience for the beginning of my trip and I’ve been able to use the knowledge I gained pretty much every day since.”
