Saba was an excellent tour guide - very personable and brought a lot of enthusiasm. She knew a lot about the area, so in addition to pointing out the unique photo ops, provided a good background of the area. She has a natural eye to find ways to present what looks like normal pictures in an interesting and creative way. Next time we're in Boston we plan on doing one of the other tours she offers.

This was a highly recommend tour and it lived up to the hype. It is a great way to see a city for any one who also wants to capture some great pictures. I would love to see this type of tour offered in other cities and will recommend it to anyone I know visiting Boston.

My husband and I were in Boston for vacation and he is a photography enthusiast, always taking pictures, and has a great camera. I'm a scrapbooker. Our guide was able to tailor the tour to all levels, giving us all shots we could try, but giving my husband camera settings, etc. But still keeping it easy enough for a casual user. Our guide didn't have a big fancy camera so it wasn't intimidating. And she mixed in tidbits about the houses and people in the area. Our tour group was small, which was great. If we'd been visiting longer, we'd have taken another of her tours. Can't recommend it highly enough.

Saba was so knowledgable about the sights and photography! When I come back for another visit I'm doing more of her tours.

It was a very informative tour and I learned some good composition techniques. If I am ever in the area again, I would consider going on another photowalk tour in a different area.

Saba was a wonderful ambassador for Boston. She shared a lot of stories about the area and guided us to some great photographs to remember our trip. The length of the tour was just right. I have already recommended the activity to several of our friends!

I live five miles from Boston, have worked downtown for over 20 years, am very familiar with Beacon Hill, yet Saba was able to show me new ways of looking at it and I learned a few things about it's history that I never knew before. I highly recommend a tour whether you are from out of town or local. I now need to get back to editing the 150 photos I took.......

I had just recently purchased a new digital camera and didn't know much about it. This tour provided me with simple instruction of my camera, historical information about the area and suggestions about subject matter. If i get the chance to go back to Boston I would definitely take another photowalk tour.
