Great Sights and Great Photos - We had done a couple different tours in the city before we did this one and were delighted to discover we were seeing almost completely different sights and neighborhoods than the other tours took us on. and not only did we get to see some amazing parts of the city and learn some incredibly interesting things about its history and architecture, we got some of the best vacation photos we’ve ever taken!

Make your own photo album of Boston history - This tour is terrific. It's both a photo tour and history lesson. Saba gives so much interesting history about Boston and is so easy to talk to that once or twice I forgot that I was there to take pictures. She gently reminded me and helped with places to stand, settings to use and other photo tips. I recommend this to folks from out of town and people like me who live here.
