My instructor was amazing... - My instructor was amazing and took the time to really teach everything from the beginner as I have 0 experience. Lots of information to help guide me to continue to learn. Lots of great sites seen during the time as well.

Great Rome Photo Experience. - I have taken multiple Aperature photography tours and all have been very positive experiences. My experience with Emanuele was particularly rewarding. He kept me in perfect communication with our connections. The photography location, along with his gentle and helpful suggestions and educational tips were great. I would recommend Emanuele without reservations.

Fantastic class and instructur - I have taken photo lessons with Aperture tours all over Europe, and I can easily say that Emanuele was the best teacher I have worked with. He went above and beyond to find the best shots, and worked patiently with me as an iPhone user. He even stayed 30 minutes after the lesson to shoot the Trevi fountain at night. The next day, Emanuele provided me with additional tips to shoot the sunset from the ideal spot. I highly recommend this tour for experts and hobbyists alike.

Rome at Night Photo Tour - Emanuele was a delight to shoot with in Rome. I wanted to focus on composition and Emanuele delivered! I am grateful for the experience and was very pleased with my images. Thank you Aperture Tours.

Novice photographer visits Rome - My husband and I had a great day shooting photos with Emanuele. It was awesome learning perspective from a professional urban landscape photographer. He was patient and informative and knew all the scenic gems of the city! We would love to go out with Emanuele again the next time we visit Rome.

Learn a lot while shooting with a great guide in an amazing city. - Emanuele was excellent. Took time to understand the level I was on then work with me to learn my camera and have me look at photography from a different perspective. He provided some amazing spots to take pictures of sites around the city (including a secret place to get an amazing shot of Trevi fountain!) My non photographer wife tagged along and was really impressed with how much I learned in a short time.

Roma as I have never seen it before. - To start with I am a visually impaired photographer. I am not able to see the 'Big Picture" (Pun Intended) when shooting. I did not inform my guide Emanuele from Aperture Tours about my disability, because I did not want it to color his guidance. That being said, my experience was fantastic. I text Emanuele that I did not want to just shoot general 'Tourist" shots and that I wanted to document the street life of Roma.
Emanuele was so educated and Roma as well as the exact times of the evening to shoot different areas and take advantage of the sunlight as well as the lit up architectural gems of the city. He took me on streets what I would never have found on my own. He offered patience and visual guidance and it was great to work with a peer.
Next time in Rome I will reach out to Emanuele from Aperture Tours another adventure.

Want to do something fun and to learn new skills doing it!!! - What an experience. Meeting Emmanuele for our photo class was a great experience. He showed us some great vantage points to take photos and our group were novice photographers and he was patient and knowledgeable! The pictures we were taking from the beginning of the tour to the end were remarkably improved. Emanuele shared his approach to taking great photos amongst the amazing back drops around Rome. The three hours flew bye and we were wishing we could have done more. Suggest taking this on the front end of your visit to capture better pictures throughout your stay. Our group was applying the techniques we learned the balance of our trip. Well worth taking this tour!

Exceptional experience!! - I've been on many professional photo tours around the world and this one was by far the best. My professional (Emanuel) was excellent at finding the perfect locations at the perfect times, and my photos are truly exceptional!! I can't wait to print them. Several are so good I will hang them in my home.
Thank you!!!

Great experience - This is the second time I book a guided tour with Emanuele. I had enjoyed it so much the first time that, returning to Rome, the first thing I booked was this tour. This time it was the Rome circuit at sunrise. And it was great. Emanuele always gives good advice and takes you to the right places to catch Rome when he wakes up. It also recommends other places for the rest of your stay. An experience to live!
