Picture Perfect Reviews!★★★★★
Saba's tour was amazing! I hadn't realized when I booked the tour that it was just a private tour with my sister and I. We had a fabulous time. Took some amazing photos and got to see areas that we wouldn't have otherwise gone to. Saba was also so nice to email us restaurant recommendations for the North End and took so many photos of us. TAKE THIS TOUR!!!--Nicole L. | TripAdvisor
Great tour! Not the typical walking tour in Boston. Saba was great at telling the stories behind the architecture. The photo ops were awesome!--Kathy|TripAdvisor
Absolutely wonderful tour! Saba is warm, kind, artistic and knowledgeable. It was a a pleasure to learn so many tips for taking great pictures and see the view from a different perspective. I was so impressed by her knowledge of the city and its history. Really enjoyable experience, would definitely recommend it.--Anjana | TripAdvisor
We had an interesting and enjoyable time with Saba as she took us around Back Bay and Beacon Hill. She is a professional photographer and has clearly spent much time looking out interesting angles and compositions for images. She also has a very good grasp of the history of the city. She took time to understand our interests and needs and the result was a very engaging two hours with some good images coming from it - and some recommendations for further places to explore.--Steve W. | TripAdvisor
Saba was a superb guide, historically, socially, photographically all of it! We saw so many great sights in Boston and learned about our beautiful city in ways we never knew. Having her help and advise on photo taking was something that will live with me in the rest of my photo taking days as well. Thank you!--Elizabeth H.| TripAdvisor
It was an absolute pleasure to have Saba show me her favourite photography spots, and the best angles in Back Bay. Saba also told me lots of interesting details about the area. She even gave me some local shopping tips! I highly recommend taking a tour with Saba!--Dusty | TripAdvisor
