​1. What is Diallo Destinations?
Diallo Destinations creates immersive travel and photography experiences that combine camera, culture, and connection. Each trip is designed to let you see a place through a new lens—literally and figuratively—guided by experienced photographer and tour leader, Ibrahima Diallo.

 

2. What makes your trips different from other tours?
We’re not your typical tour and definitely not your average photography class. Diallo Destinations is where photography, culture, and connection come together in the most unforgettable way. We take you to vibrant cities, guide you through hidden gems, introduce you to local people, and help you capture it all—through your camera and your heart. You don’t have to worry about a thing. Just show up, soak it in, learn new skills, and take the kinds of photos (and memories) you’ve always wanted. Whether you’re a beginner or a pro, this is travel how you always imagined it—rich, soulful, and real.

 

3. Do I need to be a professional photographer to join?
Not at all! Our workshops are for everyone—beginners, hobbyists, and professionals. We focus on creativity, perspective, and storytelling, so you can capture amazing memories regardless of your camera or skill level.

 

4. What destinations do you offer?
We currently host experiences in New York City, Jamaica, Mexico City, Senegal, and United Kingdom.
We are always reviewing and expanding our list of destinations. If there’s somewhere you’d love to explore with us and it’s not yet on our list, please get in touch—we’d love to hear from you!

 

5. What’s included in the trip price?
