Photography tours

From 2013 until 2024 I have done photography tours in Hoi An, Vietnam, with the name Hoi An Photo Walks.

In 2024 I relocated to Porto, Portugal. Once the new tours are up and running you can see them here

Some of the testimonials

I reached out to Pieter for a private photography tour. He was very knowledgeable, could capture photographs that only a good artist could and was great company. We did a combination of alleyways and landscapes. I learnt a lot from my session with him and feel more confident about my approach with using more advanced cameras. Lastly, he is a wonderful person and is sure to positively impact your day in more ways than one. Thanks Pieter!

I had an excellent time with Pieter. We went out on 3 outings together, and I can fully endorse his photo tours. Pieter is a wonderful guy, good company and I can see very committed in doing his absolute best to give you an enjoyable, informative and very memorable experience. He is a great observer looking at all the elements, fully understanding the nuances of light and shade and how to approach and frame the shot. He discusses photographic techniques and the different ways of looking at a scene.

I loved this experience! You get amazing tips and insights into both photography AND Vietnamese life.
Pieter is incredibly gifted and and has a lovely and patient manner when imparting his knowledge.
It was a great balance between technique, composition and mindset. I went in a little anxious about my skill level but it doesn’t matter at all. He’s great at reassuring you, suggesting new angles to take photos from and most importantly helping you to confidently interact with locals and capture moments. It was lovely walking through the village and farmland in golden hour and cruising down the Thu Bon River. Thanks Pieter for my most memorable Vietnam experience.
