Picture Perfect Reviews!★★★★★
Cannot say enough about how wonderful this tour was!! Saba is very knowledgeable of the history and shared information we would have not otherwise known. The walking tour went at a perfect pace! Saba is also a talented photographer- took pictures of us and showed us great tips for our own pics. We took many tours while in Boston and this was our favorite!! She is absolutely delightful!! Highly, highly recommend her!!--Jacki F. | TripAdvisor
I can honestly say this was the best Boston Tour from a historical and learning experience. I have always had an interest in photography but after reviewing my photos over the years, bland and boring come to mind. However, after this tour I have the knowledge that allows me to capture the photographs I have so longed for. The historical information we received from Saba was extremely interesting and she is such a lovely person. Anyone interested in photography and history this tour is a definite must do.-- Andy C.| TripAdvisor
Saba has done this for 20+ years and is the best! She shares both history and interesting facts along with picture taking tips. The tour is not rushed and she still finishes on time. You will bring home both stories and wonderful pictures.--Frances | TripAdvisor
We throughly enjoyed our time with Saba. The tour was fun, interesting, and educational. Really enjoyed the stories and seeing the old photos of what Beacon Hill used to look like. If you love taking pictures, this tour will not disappoint.
Saba is enthusiastic and knowledgeable and gave us some good advice for our visit to lovely Boston. We explored some picturesque areas and took some great photos. We will use this advice for future travels. We really enjoyed it!--Sarah | TripAdvisor
While the weather was iffy. Being a cloudy day was actually a better scenario for the photo walk tour of Beacon Hill. Saba is very knowledgeable with photography and offers the best ideas for shots of Beacon Hill and the Public Garden. She's friendly and knows the area's history extensively. I highly recommend the PhotoWalks tour and would definitely participate in her other Boston tours.--Estelle R. | TripAdvisor
