What Do You Get on the Tour?
You will discover the major sights of Melbourne as well as many other photographic attractions that you may well have missed on your short visit to Melbourne. Unlike other Walking Tours in Melbourne, Photo Walking Tours offer expert photographic advice on how to frame pictures, utilise light and get the most out of your camera, regardless of its make or model, and many other useful tips. You will also get a pamphlet with these photographic tips. The purpose of these walking tours is to not only discover the sights of Melbourne, but to enhance your images with stylish photographs you will be proud to call your own.
To make the best use of the two hour tours, I take a maximum of 6 people per tour. If you require individual or specialised attention, you may wish to consider a private tour.
What To Bring?
Participants on these walking tours need to bring their own camera and accessories such as camera bag, tripod, lenses, etc.
The Cost!
The cost of the three-hour Photo Walking Tour is $89 per person in groups of up to six people.
Every additional hour is $28 per person.
Discounts for backpackers and special interest groups apply.
These three-hourly tours can upon request, be customised to suit your plans. Unlike regular walking or bus tours, the Photo Walking Tours enhance your photographic images by also conducting tours at sunrise, sunset and twilight hours, in addition to regular day tours.
Nine-hour photo course
This course is for the more demanding photographers who would like an extensive workshop that covers basic photography in depth. It is divided into four sessions, that concentrate on how to take better pictures of city/street scape, architecture, portraits, action, sports, flash and tripod skills. The introductory three-hour session includes a lecture on the basics of photography and getting to know your camera, followed by two hours of taking pictures along the Yarra River in the City. The second two-hour session covers the streets and lanes of the City. The third two-hour session is at St Kilda, around The Esplanade, Acland Street and the beach. The final two-hour session is a twilight and early night tour of the City, along the Yarra River, learning how to take night shots with a tripod. A free pamphlet introducing photography and how to take better pictures is included. The cost is $260 per person. This course can be taken over four days or four weekends. |
