Fun and creative!

Saba was great and gave some excellent tips about picture taking. She knows the history of the neighborhoods really well and makes the tour really interesting. She'll help you bring out your creativity and motivate you to take more and more pictures and explore other cities and neighborhoods on your own. The Creative Photography Guide she sends is also very helpful.

A great way to view and photograph the sites

My 14 year old daughter and I spent an afternoon with Saba on the Freedom Trail walk. We really enjoyed out tour and the advice Saba gave us for taking interesting photos. We came home with beautiful photographs and a new way to approach taking photos on future trips. We highly recommend this unique way to enjoy a lovely city. Saba was very accomodating and informative.

We had the most enjoyable Photowalk of Boston last Saturday. Our guide was professional, friendly and informational. I was well pleased with my shots of Boston. I plan on taking additional tours with this guide. This was my second Photowalk with this guide and highly recommend this tour.

Nice walk, something different
Sat, May 2, 09   10:00 AM louisayan Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
The tour is not about learning the technique, but about the composition. Nice walk, learnt about the history, took some nice pictures.... a bit of everything.

More than I expected.

The tour was fabulous, more than I expected. Saba is very knowledgeable with both the history of Boston and with photography. I am so pleased with my pictures and I know I would never have the same results on my own. Planning my next PhotoWalk.

Wonderful Opportunity

We had a wonderful time with Saba. She shared very creative photographic insights with her home town of Boston. We really enjoyed ourselves on the tours and appreciated her patient nature. We went on three different tours with Saba & enjoyed each one. Each tour was different.

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.

Great day trip

This was a great way to see and learn a little about the Back Bay area of Boston. The guide was informative with many great photo taking ideas. I learned a lot about composition and plan to use her recommendations in taking future photos. We also plan to sign up for more PhotoWalks tours in the near future. Overall, I highly recommend the PhotoWalks.

Not for Serious Photographers
Tue, Mar 24, 09   12:00 PM cmiskow Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
Historically, the walk was wonderful and the guide was very knowledgeable. The photography tips, however, were more geared towards "vacation snap shot shooters" than serious artistic photographers. I was expecting tips regarding aperture, depth of field and exposure setting; the tips I got were mainly "set the camera on automatic, point and shoot." She discouraged the use of a filter, which I thought was somewhat limiting to my own creativity and often suggested shots that I felt were traditional "post card views" rather than encouraging the photographer to look for a new point of view or a new take on a familiar setting. If what you are looking for is photographic memories of yourtrip to Boston, then this is your ideal tour; however, if you are a serious hobby shooter, take the tour, leave the camera in the hotel, then retrace your steps the next day on your own.

fantastic
Tue, Mar 24, 09   10:00 AM smlevy09 Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
My 12-year old son and I toured Beacon Hill with Saba and we both absolutely loved it. We both took gorgeous photos and learned so much. I purposely scheduled the tour at the beginning of our stay so that we could incorporate tips into the photos we took the rest of our stay - worked perfectly. Highly recommend!

a fun & educational event!
Sun, Mar 8, 09   10:00 AM seaster2 Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Unspecified
I learned more from Saba about photography than I ever could have imagined. We covered a lot of territory and she included local tales of our travels. It was a great deal for the fee charged. The various trips made it easy to fit in to a tight schedule. Highly recommended!!
