Venice Photography Walking Tour with Private Guide

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 57 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $271

Spend three hours walking Venice with a private photographer guide, often including local pros such as Vinicio or Mario. Choose daylight or sunset, then practice composition, light, camera settings, and reportage photography around St. Mark’s Square, Rialto, quiet canals, and lesser-known neighborhoods. Smartphones and advanced cameras are welcome.

“We spent 3.5 hours with Mario yesterday, and were pleased the tour was just for our family of 4. The photography tour was a refreshing way to spend our time and we loved seeing some of the back lane ways of Venice. Mario also told us a lot about the areas we were walking through. Mario was fabulous with our children (15 and 12 years). Our daughter had bought a camera the day before the tour and Mario even set the camera settings for her and explained the principles of using a camera really well. We loved learning more about composing photos. This tour was a highlight of Venice.”
