| We were pleasantly surprised to have such a personalized tour of Boston. Our guide, Saba, gave us interesting perspectives and details of Boston's revolutionary history as well as great tips on how to take pictures of each site. The tips on picture taking will help us beyond just this tour. This tour is especially great for beginning and intermediate photographers. |

| My brother and I did this photo tour of the Freedom Trail on a very blustery cold day. Saba was our tour guide. She did a great job of showing us how to take dramatic pictures , and how to turn an ordinary picture into a great picture by changing the angle of the shot, or zooming in on a part of the subject, not the whole subject. We learned a lot about the history of the Freedom Trail and North End. I would enthusiastically recommend this to anyone who wants to learn how to take better pictures with whatever camera they have, and who wants to have fun while they are doing it. |

| We selected this tour as my parents have visited Boston many times, and almost exhausted the local routine historical tours. It met our needs: for my father the history buff, and my mother the budding photographer (in her own mind!).
Saba was friendly from the start, timely and respectful of all in the party. She asked names and where we were from and referred to participants along the way to keep them engaged and on track.
We had a beautiful day, and the 2 miles flew by as the pace was good for retirees', mom's with strollers, teenagers, and dogs. Great historical information was shared, and nice photos are a great asset to leave with.
Saba is knowledgeable and passionate about what she does and the result is a great tour in a great town. I recommend it for tourists, locals with visitors, or locals looking to experience the city in a different way. I can't wait to do another with Saba! |

| We really enjoyed this tour. The leader was fun and interesting. She knew a lot of her Boston stuff, and was very good with photography suggestions. We saw a lot of interesting sites and got a lot of good pictures. Our guide was also very helpful with some of the people who did not know how to use all of the features on their cameras. We would highly recommend this tour. |

| The photoguide was very knowledgable about the historical monuments of Boston and provided excellent photo tips, such as the trying to get different angles of buildings to make the photos interesting. One photo that was really cool, was taking a picture of the Benjamin franklin statue from an angle that makes him look like he is walking in the woods instead of being in the middle of the city. Very good tour, would recommend to everyone!!! |

It was worthwhile, informative and fun.

| My husband and I both enjoyed Photowalks tour of Freedom Trail very much. The tour guide was very patient and spent lots of time describing the various monuments and best ways to photograph each of them. I would recommend the tour to anyone. And it was not too expensive. |

Excellent activity for all ages...

| Having walked the Freedom Trail trough Boston 3 years ago this gave us both an interesting and informed tour of the sights with very helpful advice on how to look at taking unique photographs with a difference. Educational from every aspect, and highly recommended for all ages. |
