Private Photography Tour in Buenos Aires

Great guide and photographer. Nicholas showed us the best spots and best angels to take the best photos. One could not find a better guide in BA. Finally, he is not intrusive which is important for us.

We had an amazing experience with Nik in Buenos Aires. He’s incredibly kind, soft-spoken, and made us feel welcome from the start. What I loved most was how personal the experience felt—he took the time to get to know us and shared his own stories, making it feel like we were exploring the city with a friend. Seeing BA through his eyes was truly special. As a photographer, he went above and beyond. He had looked at my work in advance and tailored the tour to my interest in street and travel photography. He pushed me to think more intentionally about my compositions and shots, and that made a real difference. He never rushed us - the focus was always on the experience. The thoughtful and constructive feedback he gave me in our photo review session is something I’ll carry with me going forward. It was such a fun, enriching experience - learning, exploring, and seeing BA in a completely new way. Nik - I hope you organize a tour in the US someday, I’d love to join again or hopefully in another corner of the world!

We hired Nicholas Tinelli for a full-day tour in Buenos Aires before our Antarctic cruise, and it was the highlight of our stay. Nicholas took us through several diverse neighborhoods, each with its own unique character, and helped us capture truly fantastic photos. We were so impressed with his expertise that we booked him again for a half-day tour when we returned from our cruise! Beyond his technical photography skills, Nicholas is a wealth of knowledge. He shared fascinating insights into the city's history and culture, which added so much depth to our visit. If you want to go beyond simple snapshots and really see the authentic beauty of Buenos Aires, I cannot recommend Nicholas highly enough.

Nicholas curated two fantastic days of photography experiences for me, including a trip outside Buenos Aires to visit a gaucho and his horse plus a combined city from above and twilight tour. From golden hour epic country scenes, to iconic urban twilight shots, this was an amazing opportunity to see what makes this region so special. He offered great advice throughout our time together, and I’m thrilled with the results. Don’t hesitate to book with him if you come to Argentina. You will not regret it!

Nicholas Tinelli is absolutely incredible — a 5-star review isn’t enough for this fabulous soul! He is knowledgeable, passionate, patient, and genuinely caring. I learned so much during our time together, felt completely at ease, and had so much fun. His love for photography and for Buenos Aires shines through in everything he does. What makes him truly special is that he offers assistance and guidance even after your private session, ensuring your photos turn out beautifully. We only wish he lived closer so we could see him again!

Custom location and experience based on my photo interests and camera. Incorporated several areas include one that was discussed during the tour. Guide known to some historic establishments for exclusive access and photo subjects. Received suggestions on good compositions for those areas. Guide also took some photos of us, the guests, and shared for our memories.

I was traveling in Buenos Aires with my mom and her friend, both of whom are avid photographers. I booked a semi-last minute photography tour for them with Nicholas on our first night here, scheduling it for the following evening. I was able to message Nicholas over WhatsApp. He was very responsive and took all the information I gave him about our goals. I explained to him that while I was familiar with the city from having lived here, I did not really know what the optimal photo areas were, particularly when it comes to evening and nighttime photography. Moreover, since my mom and her friend were experienced photographers, they wanted to take photos of specific things (notably the street art in Palermo Soho). Nicholas was very helping in coming up with an itinerary for us. He met us at our apartment before the scheduled time and even brought two tripods for us to use (which we requested and ended up not using - poor guy had to carry them around for a few hours). We were able to shoot photos during the golden hour and at sunset into twilight of various views of Buenos Aires, in line with what we asked for. Nicholas is an extremely friendly and personable guy. It was clear from speaking with him that he's very passionate about photography. During our outing, he was highly attentive of our needs and even provided both my mom and her friend (who's an award winning photographer), many pointers and suggestions. It's rare to find someone who is so willing to teach others his tips and tricks of the trade, much less being able to effectively communicate them to others. I highly recommend Nicholas as a photography tour guide or as a photographer, and 100% wouldn't hesitate to schedule this again.

Thanks to a birthday present I had the opportunity to take this photo tour of Buenos Aires City. I arrived without knowing what to expect: what Nicholas would be like as a guide, what places we would visit, or how much I could learn to improve my photos. Nicholas was the perfect guide. He took me to really interesting places and, with a very practical approach, taught me techniques that I could incorporate immediately into my way of photographing. In addition to being a great professional, he is a very friendly person: his treatment is cordial and his way of explaining, clear and patient, makes learning a pleasure. Like I said, I didn't know what I'd be up against. Today, after experiencing this experience, I am convinced that this tour can contribute a lot to anyone who does. I highly recommend it and thank Nicholas very much.

I had an amazing photo tour in La Boca with Nicholas Tinelli, and it was truly one of the most memorable experiences of my time in Buenos Aires. From the very beginning, Nicholas was professional, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. He took the time to understand what kind of photos I wanted and explained how the session would flow, which made me feel relaxed and confident right away. La Boca is vibrant, colorful, and full of character, and Nicholas knows this neighborhood perfectly. He guided me through the most iconic spots as well as lesser-known corners that made the photos feel authentic and unique. From the famous colorful streets to artistic details and textured backgrounds, he knew exactly how to create stunning images. He has an incredible eye for light and composition, and together, we were able to capture the energy, culture, and soul of La Boca. He was patient, encouraging, and full of great local insights, which made the tour feel more like exploring La Boca with a local friend than a formal photo tour. His professionalism, combined with his warm personality, made the experience effortless and fun.
