| The photowalks tour with Saba on Beaconhill was fantastic. I was very unfamiliar with the area but instantly fell in love with it, and Saba was able to point out every little detail and knows the area intimately. I would definitely take this tour again and will recommend it to all my friends. |

| This was a nice side trip for my 15yr old budding photographer and I. Saba provided interesting historical information about the area, and excellent explainations about what makes a good picture. Although I've never been a very good photographer, I got several beautiful pictures. We will definitely be back for another tour! ~ Cyndi and Jenna, Springfield, OH |

| This being our first trip to Boston, we wanted to learn and capture the most we could of a specific area. We are a group of friends who are amateur photographers. We chose the Beacon Hill photo walk. We were truly surprised and greatly rewarded by this tour. Not only were we taught new photo techniques, but our instructor, Zaba, also gave us much history, and appreciation of the area which made it that much more interesting. She took the time to answer all questions and many times used her own camera and photo's to show us how to capture an effect. As a group we were sorry we didn't have more time to take advantage of her other photo walks. I highly recommend any tour she offers in Boston. |

| I went on the photowalk to get tips on shooting pictures, but was pleased to learn a bunch about Boston during the process. Saba does well to show you both the history and different ways to look and capture a scene. Well worth the price and time. |

| Walking through Beacon Hill was very pleasureable and interesting. It however was not a unique photographic experience. I would suggest reducing the number of opportunities for photographing flower boxes and doorknobs and substitute them with other subjects. |

Let's do it again!

| Because my friends and myself are from Boston or the immediate area, we were familiar with the geography of Beacon Hill and had walked the streets a number of times before. However, your narration added fun and interesting facts and we enjoyed being introduced to new aspects of our town. |

Excellent re. scope and info.
