“This was an excellent tour. The primary purpose was to take night photos, and the tour guide exceeded expectations in that regard. He not only took us two familiar sites, but also took us to areas that we never would’ve found on our own to get a unique perspective for the photos. Great tour, great tour guide!”

“So I booked a photoshoot with Valentina for 10am outside of trevi fountain, I wanted to propose to my partner obviously without her knowing, so I emailed and got a really quick response back from Valentina suggesting to meet earlier because I would be quieter which I was really happy about because it gets crazy after 9am! So I booked it for the 10th of may but it was going to rain all day! So Valentina emailed me telling me it was going to rain and if I would prefer the day after! Which is something she didn’t have to do and I was extremely grateful for I opted for the rain to be different which didn’t bother our photographer or us, she was awesome guys! The way she suggested the where we should stand and for my partner to turned away from me so I could get down on one knee. (She said yes) I couldn’t and wouldn’t recommend anywhere or anyone els to have this experience with! I’d give them 1000 stars if I could!! Thank you again we loved our photos!”

“Excellent tour guide! Our guide was very passionate about history and truly loved the Vatican Museums. The security line for our group was almost non-existent (what a breeze). Breakfast was really good too. Ham, eggs, bacon, pancakes, juice and coffee… Eating in the garden was lovely. The tours of the tapestries and galleries was not overcrowded at all and we saw everything we needed and all questions were welcomed. The Sistine Chapel was a little crowded, but our guide prepped us and showed us to the bathrooms beforehand. Then we were dropped off at the front doors to St Peter’s Basilica.”

Recommended Photography Gear for Rome Photo Tours

✅ Drone

The DJI Mini 4 Pro is one of the best drone options for travel photography, since lightweight and folds to fit in a camera bag.

✅ Camera

It’s a good idea, when you’re focusing on photography to get a mid-to-professional level camera to leave room for growth. You’ll want a Mirrorless or DSLR, and your choice will depend on your budget and preferences – then, the lens will make a difference, too!

I currently own and use a Canon 6D DSLR which has wifi connectivity and is a full-frame professional camera!

📸 For more affordable DSLR options, check out this post on the 5 Best DSLR Cameras Under $300.

✅ Lens

Depending on your photography style, you might want a wide angle, telephoto (for close-up nature and wildlife photography), and standard zoom for an all-around lens.

I use this Canon EF 16-35mm Wide-Angle Zoom Lens because I love wide-angle photos but don’t want to sacrifice zoom capability:

✅ 4-In-One Travel Tripod

I use this tripod because it’s the perfect versatile tool for travel photography! It works for both DSLRs/Mirrorless cameras and smartphones, pus it doubles as a selfie stick, monopod and trekking poles! It’s also lightweight and folds up small enough to fit in your suitcase (and did I mention, it’s also affordable?):

✅ Memory Card (for DSLR/Mirrorless)

SanDisk Extreme Pro memory cards are the best for cameras because they prevent issues with photography and video that happen with lower quality memory cards:

✅ Remote Shutter

A Remote Shutter, like this one for Canon, is excellent for low-light and long-exposure photography, including sunrise or night photos (perfect for the top tour in this post)!

Here’s a remote shutter (2-pack) for smartphones:

✅ Circular Polarizer

A Circular Polarizer is perfect for capturing lake reflections and getting the bottom of bodies of water – just make sure to get the correct size for your lens:

✅ Portable External Hard Drive

Backing up your photos is really important! Seagate is one of the best brands for these (it’s what I use). This one is 2TB so it’ll last awhile!

✅ Camera Case Insert Bag

This insert bag is water-resistant, and it fits into any backpack or bag! I use this to switch between my carry-on backpack and day pack.

More Gear You’ll Need for Rome, Italy

• Electrolytes
• Comfortable walking shoes
• Sunscreen
• Clothes for dress code (for certain sites)

What to Consider for Photography Tours In Rome

👉 Unique Tour Rules. Check your specific tour for any unique rules and regulations before you go – not all have the same rules!

👉 Outfit(s). You’ll want to pack outfits for photoshoots, plus make sure you have clothing that meets the dress code (shoulders and knees covered) for sites like the Vatican and St. Peter’s Basilica. I recommend carrying a jacket or shawl if you want to wear a tank top so you can have both types of outfits! For the best photoshoot outfits, try not to wear busy patterns, too!

👉 Weather. The summers in Rome can get very hot, humid or dry and the winters can be cold and wet, plus you may encounter a lot of cloudy winter days. You’ll want to plan for photos for the best weather and temperatures, because many sites require being outside a lot. I recommend shoulder season, and especially Fall for visiting Rome (I visited in October and there were both cloudy and clear days, but the weather overall was perfect)!

FAQs: Photo Tours & Photography In Rome, Italy

👉 Where is the best place to take a picture of the Colosseum?

The best places for Colosseum photos include:

• Oppian Hill (Parco del Colle Oppio), which is outside the Colosseum in Oppian Hill Archaeological Park (which contains of the Domus Aurea (Golden House of Nero), the Baths of Trajan and Baths of Titus)
• From places in The Roman Forum
• Near the Arch of Constantine
• Via Vittorino da Feltre
• Across from the Colosseum at nearby pizza shops
• The bridge over Via degli Annibali
• Inside the Colosseum on a tour

👉 Can I tour Rome on my own?

Yes, you can easily tour Rome on your own! You can do everything on your own, or get separate tours for things you want to get more information on, like the Jewish area, or a tour at night.

Look for tickets to sites like the Colosseum online and do your research ahead to know when to go to fit in all the sites (it’s more confusing than it seems)!

👉 Can you take pictures in Rome?

Yes, you can take pictures in the vast majority of places in Rome! You can’t take photos in the Sistine Chapel, and you’ll need to check rules for sites before bringing a tripod or using flash.

👉 What is a photo tour?

A photo tour usually refers to any tour that does one of the following: instructs and assists participants in learning how to take better photos, allows extra time for photos and/or focuses on going to the most popular photo spots in a destination, or involves a professional photographer taking photos of people on a photoshoot.

👉 What is the most photographed place in Rome?

There are more than one most photographed places in Rome! The Colosseum, the Trevi Fountain, the Spanish Steps, St. Peter’s Basilica, Castel Sant’Angelo and The Pantheon are arguably the most photographed places in the city.

👉 Is the Colosseum full experience worth it?

Yes, the Colosseum full experience is worth it, and here’s why: you’ll have 2 days to use it, and you get to see more than the basics, which will also allow you into places to get more unique photos! You’ll be able to go to the underground and arena floor of the Colosseum, which not everyone gets to do. You’ll also have access to Palatine Hill/Roman Forum and more sites, but you do need to pay attention to when the best time to plan to see these is – once you go in, you can’t return to see more of them!

👉 Are guided tours in Rome worth it?

From personal experience, I believe guided tours in Rome are worthwhile when you choose the best ones for you! I specifically enjoyed a night tour, and I definitely would recommend photo tours so you can get the best photos, guided by professionals who know about photography, the best angles and the best times to avoid crowds!

👉 Is Rome a walkable city?

Rome is a walkable city! For the most part, you can walk everywhere, but at times you may want to use the public transit system to get across town, for instance getting to the Vatican from most of the other tourist areas.

👉 Do you need to carry your passport in Rome?

You’ll need to keep your passport on you while touring Rome to get into certain sites.

👉 What is the most photographed street in Rome?

The most photographed streets in Rome are the Via della Conciliazione and the Via del Corso. The Via della Conciliazione connects Castel Sant’Angelo to the Vatican, and the Via del Corso is the main street with shopping and more!

👉 How many days in Rome?

I recommend 5 days to give yourself enough time to see the main sites of Rome, and more if you want to explore further! I was surprised at how much I loved this city, and I wanted to stay longer!

👉 How do I plan a travel photography trip?

When you’re going on a trip specifically for photography, you’ll need:

• More days to plan for blue hour and sunrise photoshoots (before the crowds and best lighting)
• Research what kind of camera and equipment is allowed at each site
• Make sure you know what gear you need and have room to pack it
• Research drone regulations for locations and airports
• Bring an external hard drive with plenty of space (I recommend 1-2TB)
• Bring backup batteries and chargers
• Bring plenty of high-quality memory cards with lots of space
