Great session

It was a fabulous three hours walking through the streets and canals of Amsterdam with Mick. I got to learn so much more about the city’s history, and things to do and see as we walked through the streets, talking about photography and shooting good pictures. Got to learn quite a bit more about my camera and shooting good photos from Mick in terms of settings for manual mode, aperture mode and shutter speed mode. I’ve always used the auto mode on my camera, but now will be using the manual mode as it makes a huge difference and gives you greater control of the picture. Good learnings that I will take back with me along with some really good pictures that I was able to shoot with Mick’s guidance. I would recommend this for anyone who loves photography, is visiting Amsterdam, wants to enhance their skills and take some good pictures.

Great fun and photos in Amsterdam despite the rain!

We had a great time with Mick on our (very rainy) night photo walk! Mick was very helpful with camera settings and composition ideas (as I haven't been practicing much lately at night with my z50) so with Mick's help I was able to get some great photographs of our night in Amsterdam! I highly recommend Mick as your photography guide in Amsterdam! I also recommend Aperture Tours; this,was my second time using them on my travels!

Operator response

We can't control the weather, but we're glad we could make the most of a rainy night together! Happy to hear you had a great time with us and improved your photography skills. We hope to see you again for a third tour!

A+ teaching!

Charles was outstanding. He was able to quickly assess my photographic skill level and tailor his tips to my abilities. He provided helpful tips and helped me advance my street photography skills. The most helpful things he did were to provide me with in-the-moment feedback with tips on how to minimally adjust my stance, exposure, etc.to make my compositions better.

Operator response

Thank you for your review! We're delighted to hear that you had a valuable experience and that our guide tailored the tips to your skill level, providing in-the-moment feedback to improve your compositions

Fabulous Class … Well worth !!

Afraid I went to the wrong meeting place but Renzo was easy to reach and promptly connected with us. Renzo was amazing!!! I had no idea about the capabilities of my camera…but Renzo helped me learn how to shoot night photos. I have never been successful with this before tonight! Renzo had me shooting beautiful pictures in short time. I know this was a starter class for me as I will need to grow more in my knowledge and experience but could not have asked for a more polite, pleasant and proficient instructor .. he was wonderful !! Would highly recommend this tour - wish I lived closer to take more of his classes but I was extremely pleased to have invested in this experience! No Regrets!!! Thank you Renzo!

Operator response
