My sister and I went on the Beacon Hill photo walk and we both just loved it. We didn't want it to end. Saba was so nice and personal. I was amazed that even after doing these tours for 7 years, she still seemed just as excited to do it like it was her first one. She was very interesting too with all the facts she knew. She had a wonderful eye for pictures. It was so fun to walk through those beautiful streets and see things how she does. It was such a fun experience that I will definately do another tour with her. |

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! |

This is my second walk with Saba and it was so much fun. She has a great personality and some of the things that she scoped out for us to photograph were wonderful. Got great pictures out of it and I'm looking forward to doing another one soon! |

I enjoyed the small group and the one-on-one attention from Saba. She was very informative with the history of the neighborhood and had excellent camera tips. I wish I could have taken all of her Photo Walk tours. I highly recommend this. |

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. |

I was fortunate to be the only person on the tour of the Boston Public Garden, so I got to ask unlimited questions of Saba.
She was very informative and encouraged me to look at the usual scenes with a different eye, a different angle and a more intuitive approach.
There were so many more questions that I could have asked her! Not only was she an informative photographer, she had many bits of information of the history of Boston and I think she would probably be a great friend!
I would encourage anyone to take the tour, and to keep your fingers crossed that you were a part of a small group! |

Saba was warm and welcoming to myself and my young adult children. This was a great way for them to use their cameras of varying professional levels and for them to see Boston from a more personal angle. I would highly recommend this activity for Photographers of all skill levels! |

Saba has a great eye for composition and thanks to her advice I not only got good photographs and learned about the Boston Garden and Beacon Hill areas. I have taken a photography course but I think I learned more from Saba about composition and setting up a picture than I did from the course. My wife is not an avid photographer and only took a couple of pictures, but she also really enjoyed the tour. |

My daughter and I did this photo tour for her eighteenth birthday and both had a great time. Our guide did a very nice job of pointing out details in the city that could easily be overlooked as well as relating relevant history and showing us how to incorporate those details and history into our photography. By showing us how to capture a setting with her own camera, the guide also helped us develop more of an eye for creating more interesting pictures. We did the Beacon Hill tour last year and are looking forward to the Back Bay tour next year! |

We are from Finland and visited Boston for one week.
Before the trip we found Photowalk website and decided to go to the Beacon Hill Photowalk. It was money well spent and we enjoyed it a lot! Saba was really inspiring and gave a lot of good tips for better photos. She also told interesting stories about different places on the Beacon Hill. This was way better than the ordinary tourist guide tour! |
