Learned about Beacon Hill, and creative ways to shoot more interesting photos! This trip was primarily for a conference so the sightseeing plans were made only a few days in advance. Having seen the large “in character” walking tours, I’m glad this was an affordable small group event (3 in our group). Saba is excited to help us capture visually interesting photos, to maybe tell a story or capture an interest, not just have random snaps or “I was here” shots. And she’s a sweetheart! Taking her tour made me think about composing a good photo, which I applied walking back through Boston Common’s wonderful scenery. Compared to a regular walking tour (guided or self guided) there’s more freedom to stop at any time. It was a good balance of history, tidbits of interesting facts, photo tips and getting around.Highly recommend this tour, great advice regarding taking photos and a lot of fun! Tour guide very knowledgeable.

Saba led us along an amazing route, telling us all about the areas we were walking through and adjusted our route based on questions we had a long the way.
