About our Photo Tours

Adventures thru the Lens Photo Tours are Urban Adventures. The goal is for travelers to:


• Discover and experience a city through the eyes of a local photographer.
• Encourage the observation of new viewpoints and interesting details which might easily be overlooked.
• To improve photography technique.
• To have a more interesting experience and involvement when visiting a city.
• Have fun
 

Our English-speaking Photographers have in-depth local knowledge, a passion for their city and for the art of photography. Photographers are carefully selected for their breadth of style and experience in either travel or photo-documentary/reportage.
So bring your camera and be prepared to walk, shoot and click

Tour 1
Paris thru the Lens - Mysterious Montmartre

Montmartre... the very name conjures up images of penniless artists and steep winding streets, weather-beaten windmills and timeless cafes, and... they are still there!

Avoiding the typical tourist traps for the most part, this superb tour will show you the secret Montmartre, the hidden corners and unexpected sights which you will capture forever with your cameras. We finish up, nevertheless, at the stunning Sacré Coeur and its panoramic view of Paris, before retiring to a typical bistro in the artists square Place du Tertre for a glass of wine and a friendly photo critique of our efforts (for those of us who took our photos digitally, of course)!

STARTING POINT: Right next to the historic Abbesses metro entrance, line 12

ENDING POINT: Place du Tertre (the artists' square), next to Sacré Coeur

Tour 2
Paris thru the Lens - Latin Curios

From humble church to towering cathedral, Notre-Dame is the world-famous jewel in the crown of the Ile de la Cité, the original Paris before the city outgrew its island boundaries. But this whole area is steeped in history and secrets just waiting to be discovered.

We will enter the moving and visually stunning monument to the deportation. We will roam the banks of the river and the twisting backstreets rich in atmosphere and echoes of the past. And we will investigate the legendary Latin Quarter, ending our tour in a typical French bistro for a glass of wine and a friendly photo critique of our efforts (for those of us who took our photos digitally, of course)!
