Fripito is mobile app with travel guides for photographers made by locals. We work every day to make your next photo trip of your dreams happen with our help.

Plan your dream photo trip

Fripito deliver photo guides for hundreds of destinations around the world offering not only information about accommodation, food and transport, but mainly tips on where to find interesting spots, local light conditions, recommended equipment and camera settings for a fraction of the price of printed tourist guides.

Travel like a photographer not a tourist

Fripito was made for photographers by local photographers. It does not matter if you prefer your mobile phone camera, a point and shoot or top of the line DSLR. Your experience does not matter either. What matters is to be in the right place at the right time, to catch the perfect light. That is why you will find no dry descriptions of historical monuments and tourist spots in our guides. What you will find are directions to quiet and interesting spots with instructions on how to capture their authentic atmosphere and spirit.

Always up-to-date

Every Fripito user can comment on the photographs and texts of our guides and help keep the information up-to-date. All published pictures and information are verified by a team of editors, ensuring the application offers only correct and up-to-date material.

Always with you

Fripito is an application for smartphones and tablets. It will travel with you anywhere you go. You can download all the necessary data to your device before your trip eliminating the need for Internet connection or signal coverage, making it easy to consult our guides in the middle of Africa, Peru’s deserts or Greenland’s glaciers.

Create your own guide

Fripito is open to all traveling photographers willing to share their good experiences. All you have to do is contact us and create your own guide using the provided template. After your guide is reviewed by our editors, it will be uploaded to the application and you can join the growing team of authors selling their guides on Fripito. More on Contribute page.

Who are we?

We are a start-up project driven by enthusiasts who work day and night around the globe. We aren’t traditional corporation with office buildings and yachts for managers. We love traveling, photography and life.

Why Fripito?

For a while now we have been thinking about how to share our experience and know-how with other photographers around the world. Even though there are hundreds of different galleries, social networks and services, none of them met our criterias and needs. So we decided to create our own application designed for photographers by photographers, a space to share up-to-date information, experiences and raise funds for new expeditions by selling photographs and travel guides.

Origins

“For many years now, I have been organizing for my clients, interested in traveling and photography, inspiring and original expeditions focused on discovering exotic countries through the viewfinders of their cameras. Together, we have visited six continents and places as diverse as the major US national parks, South Africa, Iceland, Peru, New Zealand or China. From every trip, I bring home not only amazing memories, but also beautiful photographs. My clients often ask me how I took specific pictures and one day as I was telling them about exposure, composition and what lens to use, I got an IDEA! I love sharing my experience, but I cannot possibly take everyone with me on an expedition. I decided to create an app to share all those beautiful places I have visited on this planet along with tips on how to photograph them. I named the app Fripito,” said Jan, professional photographer and founder of Fripito.

The idea of Fripito was born over a cup of excellent coffee in the Czech Republic, the very heart of Europe. While the team is based in Prague, one of the world’s most photogenic cities, its members spend most of their time traveling around the globe making Fripito a truly global project. To ensure close ties with Silicon Valley’s start-up community and investors, the company was incorporated in Nevada.

Our tips to boost your creativity

Everybody in our team loves photography and travelling as much as you do. We want every photographer and traveler to bring not only memorable experiences, but also beautiful photographs from their trips, to relive those special moments. We want to bring together experienced photographers and create a community where you can share tips on how to get those great pictures.
