Good Tour - More photography, less architectural detail than anticipated . We had a professional photographer in our group which we should have mentioned sooner. However, good tour, interesting info, a few off the beaten tracks spots.

Highly recommended - Our tour guide Saba was phenomenal. She was kind, personable and patient. She offered a wealth of knowledge about the history of Boston and the revolution. She transformed our trip from something ordinary into something extraordinary. We learned so much from Saba while touring the historical landmarks. In fact we enjoyed her first tour so much that we booked two more! She also offered very simple advise on how to take incredible photos just using our cell phones. Thank you Saba.

Saba - Saba was knowledgable and thoughtful. She shared many great photo tips. Now we have our own "perfect' photos! We were able to compare the centuries and decades of architecture.

A perfect way to see Boston - Such a worthwhile, informative and fun experience! I have lived in or near Boston for fifty years and have never done a formal tour of our city's landmarks. I learned so much. We talked about the history, the architecture, pop culture, and more. Saba is delightful to be with. She is very experienced and knowledgeable! As a tour guide myself, and someone who takes walking tours wherever I travel, I am so excited to recommend Saba to you!
