Hi, I had a fantastic experience on this photography tour. I arrived for my holiday with a good camera and zero knowledge on how to use it. I wanted to get the best possible pictures of cape town as well as learn how to use all the functions on my camera. Ryan was so friendly and professional. He explained and demonstrated how the camera worked and its different capabilities & functions while we took photographs around The Company Gardens. He was so patient while I practised and explained things in a way that was simple for me to understand. When I mentioned I was going on a safari he gave me great tips on how to photograph animals that were moving and different techniques to use. He took me to some wonderful places to photograph Cape Town, I definitely wouldn't have found them on my own as they are off the tourist trail. I would highly recommend this tour, I learned so much and it was a great way to get some really amazing shots of the city. Thanksread more

Some much fun! Cape Town is a beautiful place and has endless things to see, but we were looking for something different. So we decided to rather go with a Cape town local guide to take us to some places, other standard tours don't go to. Ryan was great, a very good photographer, he taught me some super cool photography tips that i never knew. MY girlfriend also learned a thing or two on how to take better photos using her camera phone. All round great experienceread more

My husband and I have been hobbyist photographers for a while and wanted to learn more on how to properly use our dslr camera. Ryan's photography tour did just that. We were able to not only experience some of his secret spot in Cape Town, but now have a much better understanding of how to use our cameras to their full potentialread more

I am a veteran traveler, this being the first time to Cape Town and must say, it is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been to. My time here would not have been complete if it weren't for the Cape Town Photography tour team, who not only showed me all the great hidden spots that only locals will know, but also showed me how to better use my camera in order to get the best pictures to take home and show loved ones.Thank you guys, I will certainly be back soon!read more
