I had a really enjoyable morning with Jeroen today on the photographic tour of Nerja. He made it fun and informative... for me and the other people taking part, showing us some simple ways to take better photos and look at things from a different perspective. I learned how to better use the different options on my IPhone camera, and we had a great time taking photos plus having a really good walk around the town. We finished up at a bar where we reviewed our photos and had a drink to complete this great outing. Highly recommended to anyone who enjoys taking photos and wants to improve, while getting some exercise and having fun too!read more

This was a great tour and also an eye opener in thinking differently and looking for motives to photograph.
The... town of Malaga has a lot to offer for photographers and we had a great time with our guide that gave us tips, showed tricks and gave great feedback.

It is well worth the time to take this tour!

Very nice activity!! Really enjoyed it. You'll discover hidden squares and unknown areas of Malaga city. Very... surprising. Jeroen teaches how to use your camera and how to 'play' with the elements in the environment. I never knew there's so many options on my mobile phones' camera!! Thanks Jeroen and Kassandra for a nice half day in Malaga.read more

J'ai passé un très agréable moment à visiter et à prendre en photo le centre de Nerja sous l'oeil avisé d'un... photographe professionnel, j'ai nommé Jeroen. J'ai pu voir la ville autrement, et j'ai pu même découvrir une magnifique vue sur la plage de Burriana que je ne connaissais pas et qui vaut vraiment le déplacement. Cette visite est vraiment à recommander à tout le monde.read more

I can absolutely recommend "Not a Treasure Hunt". We got to know Nerja from a different side and we took time for... details that we had previously rushed past. It's a creative challenge. The concept is great, very inviting. You notice that a lot of effort is put into making this tour a great experience. It' s beautiful presented and well put together. And you can do it even without a special camera or special photography knowledge. Thank you. We loved it.read more

Spanje, vakantie, wandelen, foto's maken. Yeah!

Echt een aanrader voor wie in de buurt van Nerja in het zuiden... van Spanje is.

Je krijgt een set 'opdrachten' opgestuurd met een kaart en routebeschrijving en dan kun je op eigen tempo op pad. Je hoeft echt geen superfotograaf met dure apparatuur te zijn, gewoon met je smartphone gaat ook prima. Je wordt uitgedaagd om eens anders naar dingen te kijken en zo andere foto's te maken.

Bijkomend voordeel is dat je de stad leert kennen als je, zoals wij, er nog niet eerder geweest bent.

Even though I have been in Malaga a few times before. With this tour I experienced the city in a different kind of way... this time.
We followed the map through different kinds of roads and ally's and were encouraged to take creative pictures of landmarks along the way.
Fun experience!

You can take photos like these too!

All of our photo hunts are created by professional photographers with great admiration for the Andalusian cities. Their tips and ideas will inspire you to create city photos like you’ve never done before!

You do not need to be a photographer or own a professional camera, this is for everybody! Just take out your phone or camera and let us teach you how to take creative and more interesting photos.

The Experience

Not A Treasure Hunt is all about fun and creativity. We challenge you to capture the city in a different way (Look up!! Go closer! Yes…even closer!!).

Our self-guided walk is a package that you order online. This contains a map of Málaga with a route, an information booklet and photo challenge cards. You can do this walk without a guide and whenever you want. Take your time, follow the instructions and try a few variations or ideas of your own as well. You will notice how quickly you can achieve a surprising result!

Take a break for coffee or a bite whenever you feel like it. One package can be used by up to 5 people, so this is ideal for couples, families or small groups of friends. So if you are a larger group of, we advice you to order multiple packages. That way everyone can participate in the experience of looking at the map and reading the photo challenges!

We can send the self-guided tour package to your home address (it’s small and light so easily fits in your suitcase!) or you can pick it up at one of our pickup locations.

We regularly organise guided walks as well. During these walks a photographer will join the participants and show you in a fun way how to create different kinds of photos in a city.

For larger groups, company trips or incentives we organise customised walks. These will always be about fun, creativity and photography. On top of that, here we can add specific wishes, themes or locations.

A detailed map with directions will guide you through the city.

About us

We are Kassandra and Jeroen, a Dutch couple living in Andalusia since 2014. We moved to a small village on the coast, about 45 minutes from Malaga and 10 minutes from Nerja. We love the surroundings, the people and the way of life in this part of the world.

Jeroen has over 25 years of experience as a filmmaker and photographer and has organised many workshops and courses. Kassandra has been working in the travel industry and Not A Treasure Hunt combines the best of both worlds. Many of our experiences and interests are combined in this project.

With our photo walks our mission is to show participants they can take much more interesting photos than the ‘standard’ tourist photos. And while doing so, they can have fun and feel creative. Or as our tagline says…’enjoy the city through creativity’!
