Saba was great! Knowledge and kind. She kept pace with our group and took lots of fun pictures that I’m happy to have as a keepsake. I highly recommend if you’re in Boston!

The tour with Saba was informative and fun - I took my dad who loves Italian culture and the North End. He is a local and learned historical facts he’s excited to share. Thank you so much!

Even better than I expected (and I was looking forward to this for months)! Saba's passion and kind demeanor paired with her knowledge of the area, its history, and photography makes her an incredible teacher. She pulled up images of different buildings to show how they changed over the decades and talked about the drama and the humor of both (in)famous characters and the passersby who people the neighborhood. Her tips, techniques and ideas for capturing unique photos made me feel more confident in seeing good composition and creating interest in each picture. Saba is also kind enough to take pictures of you (and your group). Perfect weather, good conversation, low foot traffic (Thursday 10:00am session) Will be back to take the others the next time I'm in town!

Saba was a great tour guide. Her history is spot on and photography tips are amazing! We would definitely recommend this tour!

Andrea_D

Saba is just great. Her tidbits of information and knowledge of the area was only surpassed by the tips she gave about taking pictures with our phones. Would be happy to go on a tour with her anytime!!!

Saba exceeded our expectations by far. Her “inside knowledge” avoided tourist traps and crowds. Details on landscaping/architecture/history were fascinating. Add to that - she’s a photographer! Pics all included. We will request her again!

Learning how Boston's Little Italy came to be was fascinating, but the high points of the tour were the backstory to each point we saw on the Freedom Trail.

Saba was great! Grew up north of Boston and learned a lot. She was knowledgeable in history and photography.

Saba was so kind and such a knowledgeable tour guide! My Dad and I had a great time walking around the North End and learned a lot about the neighborhood’s hidden gems. Would highly recommend!
