Posted onVerified Beautiful Cape Town Greg took me around Cape Town for a whole day trip from Signal Hill, colourful Bo-Kaap to Boulders Beach with cute penguins... It was a very enjoyable day with chances to take beautiful photographs from the places he had shown me, at the same time getting to know Cape Town. Greg is friendly, pleasant, knowledgable and very accommodating. It is a excellent combination of able to see Cape Town with photography opportunities. I would highly recommending it for a marvellous experience. Tq Greg.Posted onVerified Outstanding photo tour in and around Cape Town I was in Cape Town on a solo trip, and Greg helped make my time there extra special. He is a very professional and knowledgeable photo guide and took me to a lot of cool places in the area. You can see he is truly passionate about what he does and likes to see things differently. I had a few location wishes, and Greg was so flexible and attentive, always adapting the plan to my requests and to the weather so we could make the most of every photography opportunity. I had always been a bit apprehensive of shooting full manual, and, following his teaching and encouragements, I finally made the jump and never looked back. I learned a lot, so thank you Greg! If you enjoy photography (or not), I cannot recommend him enough as a guide, and I'd absolutely hire him again if I'm back in Cape Town.Posted onVerified Southern Africa Apr 2025 We had a wonderful time travelling along the Garden Route in South Africa followed by a 2800 km journey through Namibia. The photographic opportunities were boundless and Greg’s enthusiasm and expertise were a big part of our enjoyment and we have very special memories and photographs of Africa. Thank you GregPosted onVerified Inspirational... Big shout out to Greg for the amazing guided tour today in Cape Town, overall a big winner managed to capture some great images. Would highly recommend Photography Tours, true professionalism. Thank you for sharing the knowledge you have and opening my mind to looking at capturing images. PS thanks for arranging the spectacular shoot in the gardens : )Posted onVerified Gregs magicalKapstadt Alamy17.jpg mystery tour! The guided Tour with Greg was THE highlight of my vacation. His inspiring and professional advice led to immediate improvement of my fotos. The hours with him were pure fun!Posted onVerified Awesome day! We spent an awesome day with Greg, taking tons of pics and driving around the Cape. He picked us up at 6am and we headed to Signal Hill to witness Cape Town unfold before us with a perfect sunrise. We went to a local restaurant and had a delicious breakfast. We saw penguins, colourful beach huts, tide pools, and breathtaking views. Apart from all of that, we also truly enjoyed our conversations. Greg is a knowledgeable guide, not just of photography but of Cape Town and its surrounds as well. We could not have had a better first day in Cape Town!Posted onVerified Awesome tour, awesome experience! My wife and I traveled to Cape Town in April 2024 to enjoy a few days of sightseeing before we boarded a cruise ship to sail up to Barcelona. Being a photographer, I love to spend time with local photographers to help show me the best places to see and photograph and maybe even pick up some new tips and tricks. After some research, I reached out to Greg to see if his Cape Point & Penguins Full Day Photo Tour was available. So glad I did! If you take one of Greg's tours, you will find that Greg quickly responds to any questions pre-tour and is very easy-going creating a relaxed atmosphere during the tour. He is prompt, keeps the tour moving yet gives you plenty of time to accomplish, see and learn what you want to. Greg will also mold himself to whatever level of learning or experience you are looking for as a photographer. My wife is not a photographer, so Greg was very helpful and patient with her really showing her how to utilize a camera to it's fullest in a very easy to understand manner. For me as a photographer, he gave me advanced tips and tricks along with some suggestions on different angles of the standard tourist photos. We highly recommend Greg for all your photography and touring needs!Posted onVerified Cape Town Photo City Tour with Greg We took a half day trip with Greg around Cape Town and Bo Kaap. My wife is a professional photographer and I am normally just the camera caddy. As Greg and my wife explored a creative view of Cape Town, Greg gave me a concise lesson in using the manual mode of her second camera and I was able to learn quickly. We enjoyed our trip through Cape Town so much we decided to ask Greg to take us on a five day tour of the Western CapePosted onVerified Photography outing with a "Twist" Had a great morning with Greg. We met in the chocolate shop for a chocolate delicacy and a chat, which works well to start the morning off on the right foot.. Then we walked over to Bo Kaap, an area in Cape Town with brightly coloured houses. We did some photography and then had a go at some experimental photos, with movement etc. Have done other trips with Greg and what I particularly like about the trip, is that, first of all Greg is very laid back and easy to be with. Also, he is a very experienced photographer and after looking at the straight forward shots, he then looks to more abstract and different and experimental photography which you can then apply to other trips on your own at a later stage.Posted onVerified A tour that exceeds expectations! Greg is a tour guide that knows, places, events, and experiences that will make your tour unforgettable. We toured eateries, experiences and must see places around Cape Town and Table Mountain. We learned a bit about photographing scenes, food and each other. Thank you Greg.
