Lima Photo Day Tour
Amazing first day in Lima
Mar 2022 • Solo
I’ve had such an amazing time with Dan. He is knowledgeable about Lima, its history, culture, you name it. Dan strives to makes his guests feel welcomed and comfortable on his trip. This was a terrific experience. You certainly will not regret it.

Reignited my Love for Photography!!
Mar 2022 • Solo
The best money I’ve spent in a long time!! You will see all the highlights of Lima, catered to a love of photography!! The cultural experience is unbeatable. Dan is a phenomenal guide with unique stories of each place. I felt safe and engaged the entire tour! It has reignited my love for travel photography and brought so much inspiration to pivot my career to photojournalism. I will be going on more tours with Dan and his company in the future!

The Real Deal (non-tourista) Lima
Jun 2022
Arriving for our first time in Lima, we sought a local guide who not only catered to photographers but also would show us the lesser known and emerging spots, places where real Limenos hang out. There’s no one better to do that than Dan and his crew at Andean Photography. He provided a cultural perspective of both its history, politics and current scene . Note: downtown Lima suffers from crazy heavy traffic, so Dan and Cesar’s local knowledge really saved us from a lot of unproductive “stumble around” time. Really important to us: We were able to go into neighborhoods we wouldn’t do on our own. (Lesson: You can go edgier when you’re with someone who knows what would and would not upset the culture while photographing.) BTW- while my husband is a serious DSLR guy, I was using my smartphone and Dan was equally helpful to both of us. When we come back to visit Cuzco, we’re definitely checking in with him again, as we hear he does a great Andes tour as well.

Truly excellent!
It was amazing!
We had an incredible 12 day tour between Lima, the Cusco Region and the Amazon rainforest.
Everything was perfect. Amazing logistics and Dan crafted an itinerary with unique, unforgettable experiences which we were able to capture on film.
Thank you!

Fantastic Photo Tour
Aug 2022
A huge thank you to Dan at Andean Photo Expeditions for being such a great guide and teacher during this tour from the moment he picked us up at our hotel to the moment he dropped us off at the end of an outstanding day. The tour was a great overview of Lima and really showed us how beautiful the city is, including some sights you might not find on your typical run-of-the mill tour. Dan managed the time perfectly and made sure we were able to fit in all the things we wanted to see and much more. And as someone who relies on my smartphone to take pictures, I appreciated that he had great tips for me as well as my friends who had photography equipment. If I ever make it back to Peru, I will make sure to book with Andean Photo Expeditions again.

Cusco Photo Day Tour
Excellent Choice - Great Memories
I have written hundreds of reviews and believe in the power of feedback; I hope my review is helpful.
We met up with our guide, Noe, in the lobby of our hotel. Noe was excellent from A to Z. He took us to some less touristy spots as well as some of the normal spots and helped us capture memorable pics.
Noe is a local and helped us understand some of the history, culture and even foods the locals eat.
This was our first full day in Cusco and it was a great way to orient us to the city.
We even asked Noe to take us to a non-touristy, locals-only restaurant for lunch and that was very memorable and gave us an insight into everyday life for locals.
I highly recommend this tour especially for those who want to make sure they come away with some great pics and memories.
Bravo, Noe. ¡Gracias!

Cusco Photo Day Tour
Cusco Morning Photo Tour
Jun 2022
I did a Morning Photo Shooting Tour with Noe Turpo Cruz in Cusco which I can thoroughly recommend. We started our tour around Plaza de Armas taking some photos of the Cathedral and Iglesia La Compania from a position allowing reflections of the churches in a fountain. We then continued and shot some photos with star effects into the sun under the arcades of the Plaza. At the upper part of San Blas we photographed the famous Gate as well as the street and buildings winding down to the town centre. Attending the Procession of Locals during the Meeting of the Mary Statue of Santa Ana with the One from Poroy was my personal highlight being the only Western Tourist there while Inti Raymi was going on. This opportunity allowed a non touristic photography of locals and scenes of the procession. Towards the end of our session we walked down to Mercado San Pedro taking pictures of several shopkeepers. Without Noe it would simply have been impossible to visit as many locations as we did within a relatively short time frame and getting access to people who were willing to be photographed. Noe not only gave me a lot of tips for composition but also encouraged me to shoot in full manual mode in the future making better use of the function buttons of my camera. A short photo critique and some advice on Lightroom post processing functionalities, I had not been aware of, completed our seession. Noe is a very creative, talented and experienced photographer so that I enjoyed our common tour a lot. He is empathic and an excellent mentor on what to improve in ones photography. It was a real pleasure being with him on the Cusco Morning Photo Shooting Tour and I can strongly recommend to engage him for photography in Cusco.

I started off with a day tour with friends around Lima with Dan and had a lot of opportunities for awesome photos of wonderful vistas of Lima, and got some great photo tips 🙂
Then I spent 4 days with Noe on photo tours based out of Cusco. We started with the Alternate Rainbow Mountain, which was amazing!
Then we continued with getting outside the city and seeing some amazing landscapes and learning more about landscape photography.
My favorite day was when we went to visit a local family up in the mountains and learned about portrait photography.
Bernardino cooked us a wonderful lunch and his family was so welcoming!
My favorite moment was when we all piled into the van and drove up to a scenic spot overlooking a lake, and we all just sat there and enjoyed each other’s company 🙂
Bernardino’s son even let me try to play his recorder lol
Noe is a great photographer and guide and was so patient with my friend and I, and by the end of the 4 days he had both of us shooting in manual..that’s quite a feat!
I highly recommend Andean Photo Expeditions and would love to go back and take some more tours with them, especially to the Amazon!

Simply perfect!
Dan is charming, knowledgeable, smart, interesting, fun, enthusiastic, adventurous, thoughtful, and informative. He felt like a friend as soon as he picked us up at the airport. He is an absolute delight and a joy to spend time with!
Dan gave us full flexibility in scheduling, tailored the tour for us on the spot, and timed everything perfectly. He made Peru come alive for us, and hit all the points we wanted to see. And, one of the most amazing things Dan had done was to adapt to the last-minute alteration of our Machu Picchu tour. He perfectly rescheduled and re-planed our itinerary due to Machu Picchu's last-minute shutdown because of protests by residents.
We saw such amazing sights, went to secret places, met many incredible local people, and had some really delicious authentic Peruvian cuisine. The tour was exactly as requested - actually expectations exceeded. It could not have been better.
I would definitely tour with him again. Highly recommend Dan!
