This was a fabulous photo tour packed into three hours! It included Grand Central Terminal, Times Square, the Chrysler Building, and other interesting shots and compositions. We had an extremely small group and the instructor, Zim, was beyond helpful and personable, and extremely patient while we were getting each shot! She gave us great background information about GCT so it was also a mini tour! I would love to do one of the night safaris after I learn a bit more about my camera settings. The most important thing is I now know what to look for in shooting my shot to make it more interesting instead of a building centered in the shot. Learning how to get up close and use angles was the most interesting part for me!! Whether you are a visitor to NYC or you live nearby, you will enjoy this photo tour and leave happy. Thank you, Zim, for a great morning!

Thanks to Zim I had a fun morning in NYC walking around the iconic buildings, central park and even on the subway, trying to get the best from my camera. Thanks very much. Great tour if you want a relaxed friendly lesson in how to improve your skills and confidence.

Dear faye_midgley - Thank you for taking the time to write a very positive review. It sounds like you had a great time and acquired some new photography skills too. Do share some of your photos with us when you have a few minutes! Thank you, Diane NYC Photo Safari

This is a great course, so much was covered in our morning session. We were a small group of fairly average photographers and we were guided patiently and informatively by Zim, our guide. Each of us got the attention we needed to achieve some fabulous pictures on the day and we each took away a vast amount of new knowledge and confidence with our cameras. I'd highly recommend this course and can't wait to sign up for another.
