Phototourism is an emerging trend in the tourism industry where travelers combine sightseeing with photography. Travel companies are recognizing this trend and beginning to offer photo tours and workshops to exotic locations around the world. These tours are organized by travel companies, photography schools, and professional photographers. The tour organizers take care of logistics like transportation, accommodations, and itineraries so photographers can focus on taking pictures. Photo tours provide opportunities for photographers of all skill levels to improve their skills, share experiences, and capture unique images in beautiful destinations.

• Photo tourism today is a new trend in
tourism. This new destination is of
considerable interest to tourists who travel
"in an embrace" with a camera. This
direction did not go unnoticed by
representatives of travel companies. In
Western Europe, photo tourism began to be
popular thirty years ago. Foreign tourists
know well how to combine the pleasant
with the useful, relax from the hustle and
bustle of everyday life, and at the same
time improve your photography skills

3. Recently, many travel companies have begun to
offer new interesting offers for lovers of
alternative recreation. These can be out-of-town
master classes for photo enthusiasts, as well as
many different photo tours to unknown parts of
their country and to exotic corners of our planet.
Such tours are organized by both travel companies
and professional schools of photographers, as well
as professional photographers.
The organizers of such trips take on the
responsibilities of route planning, while
choosing the most attractive places for
photo tourists. In addition, the organizers
book places in hotels, develop itineraries
and compile various programs, thus
relieving tourists from unnecessary worries.

4. Such programs include theoretical classes in art photography, as well as
the implementation of practical classes for tourists after the progress of
the theoretical course. An integral part of such tourists discuss the
results of the creativity of tourists for common reasons. Countries such
as Ethiopia, India, Bhutan, Nepal, and Malaysia have recently become
very popular. It should also be noted that in our country there are many
interesting places to discover their amateur tourists.

5. You can see a very interesting picture - in recent years before photo tourism, many
people have begun to show increased interest. Photographers, both professional
and amateur, have the opportunity to travel with like-minded people who will not
distract you and constantly say: "well, how much can you take pictures?", "When
will we finally leave here" and so on.
Photo tours open up a wide range of photography enthusiasts the opportunity to share experiences
between beginners and professionals. Such tourists have the opportunity to increase their level of
professionalism, replenish their collection with unique photos, and finally, just enjoy contemplating
the amazing corners of our Earth.
