Morning in Ribeira

Morning in Ribeira is a hands-on adventure designed to inspire photographers of all levels—whether you’re just starting out or you're a seasoned pro. It's not just about snapping pretty pictures of Porto's stunning cityscapes; it's about sparking your creativity, experimenting with new techniques, and seeing the world from fresh angles.

Yes, even if all you’ve got is your smartphone!

We’ll explore Ribeira and its surrounding areas. Ribeira is the oldest part of Porto, so not only will you step back in time, but you’ll also discover amazing viewpoints overlooking the city and the Douro River.

Along the way, we’ll make brief stops at spots that inspire and offer learning opportunities. Expect mini-workshops on topics like composition, working with shadows and highlights, capturing movement, and even editing tips to enhance your photos. There will also be fun photo challenges where you’ll get creative prompts and have the chance to interpret them in your own unique way.

The tour is tailored to fit your personal style and goals. If you’re here to take in the views and snap some great photos without the challenges, that’s totally fine too! It’s all about what works for you.

This isn’t just about taking beautiful pictures—it’s about engaging with your surroundings in a whole new way, pushing your creative limits, and walking away with fresh skills and a new perspective on photography.

Whether you’re looking to learn new techniques or simply want to enjoy the views and take some stunning shots, this tour is for you.

There is also an afternoon tour with the same itinerary. There are a few differences. At that time of the day there will be some street performers here and there and at the end we will witness the sunset over the Douro river (weather permitting!). That tour also has the option to be extended for one hour of low light photography.
