Outstanding Tour and Tour Guide Beacon Hill Boston Photo Walking Tour

Saba Alhadl, founder of PhotoWalks, is not only a superb visual artist and an excellent tour guide; her enthusiasm for Boston locations is irresistible, and so is her passion for helping guests find imaginative photo opportunities. I enjoyed our Beacon Hill tour so much that I signed up for a second walk with Saba during the same short trip, and it was equally delightful. (...)

So good we did it again! North End Little Italy Boston Photo Tour

I did my first photo tour with Saba 7 years ago with my aunt. We had such a good time and took so many beautiful photos, that we decided to do the tour again last weekend again.

We even made some pals on our tour and I am in love with how my photos came out.
