Testimonials:

My wife ,Merrilyn and I went on a photographic tour of Japan in November of 2008 organised by Alfonso Calero, A professional photographer from Lane Cove, Sydney Australia.
Alfonso had lived in Japan and speaks fluent Japanese. We both used Pentax Digital SLR cameras on manual settings with Alfonso instructing.
The beauty of having someone as knowledgable as Alfonso was wonderful as he was able to assist us in how to look for the best shots possible.
The other great asset of travelling with Alfonso was his knowledge of spoken Japanese and ability to talk to the average person in the street .
We also met a number of Alfonso's friends who took great delight in taking us to their local area,bars and eating establishments that the average tourist would never find.
I would recommend anyone to join Alfonso's Japan Photography Tour.
