Amazing photo tour!!!

5.00The night photography tour with Giulio was an excellent way to photograph Rome and learn about the history. He is so knowledgeable after travelling the world and being in this industry for so long, especially around Rome. Not only did he teach us new things about our cameras and framing, but while we walked to each destination he talked about the locations and gave us background information surrounding Rome and its history in those areas. It was a very peaceful experience where we got lots of beautiful photos out of it and learned a lot. Truly a 5 star experience, Giulio knows his stuff!

5.00This was a fantastic experience! Guilio was such a gracious host and guide! He was very flexible with some circumstances that were beyond our control and went out of his way to make our experience great. He is very knowledgeable - teaches photography at the college level. Two people in our party came in with a decent amount of photography experience, so Guilio adjusted his interactions and direction to meet their ability level. He provided lots of great historical context and detail to the places we visited and photographed. We got some amazing photographs of some of the most iconic locations in Rome! He even tried to take us to a highly recommended gelato place to cool off after a long, hot evening (it was closed, but he gets an A+ for effort).
Great way to see Rome

5.00Great experience. Giulio was experienced, knowledgeable and kept great company during the tour. He took me to beautiful places and was flexible to take into account a thunderstorm. Rome is so different at night and really beautiful all lit up.
Highly recommended, wonderful unique tour

5.00Guilio, thank you so much for your expert knowledge and history in Rome. I have been taking pictures through my travels and thought I knew it all. Well, at least I thought so, but learned so much more through your coaching and vision. I Iearned more in depth camera settings and definitely wiser choices on composition that made me re-evaluate my picture taking. For those that either are starting or more advanced, it would be an honor to have a mentor like Guilio! Thanks my friend, be back soon!
A great photo tour of Rome!

5.00Giudo was great! I had an injured ankle and he literally carried the tripod and camera through the whole tour for me. He was a fabulous teaxher as three other friemds leqrned how to use their cameras and settings for night pictures. He brought us to major sites with unique angles for the best pictures. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone with any skill level of photography.our pictures came out great and Rome is even more beautiful at night!
