About this experience
Just think how much better your holiday photos will be when you know how to use your smartphone camera better. During the workshop you will not only see the sights of London but also learn how to take better photos. No additional equipment is needed - just your smartphone and to download a free editing app. Great for all ages - even teenagers enjoy it! We finish the workshop over a cup of tea or coffee (or soft drink) where we will edit the photos you have just taken. A fun activity for the family, couples, solo travellers - anyone who has a smartphone.

Smartphone photography technique, fun and seeing
Jett was teaching me very nifty techniques taking photos with my smartphone. She was wonderfully personable and open and personalized the time we spent together to the places I wanted to see in London. We had coffee at the end of the session where I got to work on editing the photos I took on our walk through the city. In addition Jett sent me an email listing the many details and instructions she provided during the class so. I will book her again in my next trip to London and highly recommend her work.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your lovely review, and I'm so glad you enjoyed it.

Why this scores 61
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
London Smartphone Photography workshop and tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for London.
How much does London Smartphone Photography workshop and tour cost?
+
Prices start at $50 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in London usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does London Smartphone Photography workshop and tour take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in London is not rushed.
Is London Smartphone Photography workshop and tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in London, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule London Smartphone Photography workshop and tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is London Smartphone Photography workshop and tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book London Smartphone Photography workshop and tour?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in London can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in London and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does London Smartphone Photography workshop and tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central London within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in London?
+
London's best attractions split cleanly: the museums are free and need no booking, so the paid market is about views, theatre and getting out of the city for a day. That makes value scoring unusually important here, and the Outty Ranking penalises anything charging premium prices for access you could get for nothing. On Outty we rank every London experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Soho Music & Historic Pubs Tour, London Small Group Tour of Historical Pubs, The Great British Rock and Roll Walking Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit London?
+
May to September for long evenings, December for the Christmas markets. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in London?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
