    Great experience from a local
    Brittany_H, Dec 2023
    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!
    Response from Host, Dec 2023
    Thank you so much for writing a great 5-review, Brittany. I'm so glad you and your dad had such a great experience in the North End-Little Italy as locals. There's a lot of fascinating history that's not often told and it's very rewarding for me to know that you learned a lot on a 90-minute walking tour. Hope to welcome you back on another PhotoWalks tour. With much thanks and appreciation, Saba
    Great tour!

    Great Time in the North End
    Andrea_D, Oct 2023
    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!!!
    Response from Host, Oct 2023

    An amazing experience!
    Roberto_D, Jun 2023
    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.
    Response from Host, Jun 2023
    Thank you very much for your kind words and valuable comments regarding your experience on the PhotoWalks North End tour, Roberto. I'm so glad you and your wife had a great time and learned a lot about the North End and a few Freedom Trail sites. I hope the pictures you captured became photo souvenirs of your trip to Boston. With sincere appreciation, Saba
    Great way to gain some North End history and photography skills!
    Mary_S, May 2023
    Saba was great! Grew up north of Boston and learned a lot. She was knowledgeable in history and photography.
    Response from Host, Jun 2023
    Thank you so much for the wonderful 5-star review and kind compliments, Mary. What a fun time we had exploring Boston's North End-Little Italy for the best spots for taking great pictures. Glad you both enjoyed the neighborhood's fascinating historical commentary. Hope to welcome you back on another PhotoWalks tour! All the best, Saba
    Awesome tour!
    Olivia_C, May 2023
    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!
    Response from Host, Jun 2023
    Thank you so much for your kind words and great 5-star review, Olivia! The North End is a fun neighborhood to explore even for locals like you and your Dad. I enjoyed sharing the backstories behind the historical landmarks and places off-the-beaten path. Hope to see you and your Dad on another PhotoWalks tour! All the best, Saba
    Awesome for photographer and non-photographer to witness the neighbourhood
    Pornpop_U, Oct 2022
    This is an old town of Boston with places of historic beauty and architectures. For those who are interested in photography, there are many corners and angles to take a good photograph especially with the good suggestions by the tour director.
    Response from Host, Oct 2022
    Thank you so much for another amazing 5-star review! I'm so glad you enjoyed two PhotoWalks Tours of Boston. You now have a great collection of photo souvenirs from your visit to take home with you. With thanks and appreciation, Saba

    Rosa_R, Aug 2022
    Very good!!! Great experience I like the explanation and the visit to the church and other places. The tour guide was very nice.
    Response from Host, Aug 2022
    Glad you enjoyed the historical landmarks and iconic attractions on the PhotoWalks North End-Little Italy Tour, Rosa. Hope you're pleased with the photos you captured. Kind Regards, Saba
    Delightful guide in a fascinating neighborhood
    Avi_P, Jul 2021
    We really enjoyed our tour with Saba. The tour gives a nice spin and angle on a regular walking tour, with stops to cover unique stories and historical knowledge, but also stops to take beautiful photos and get tips about photography. The North End is a fascinating neighborhood, and while you can certainly explore it yourself to get the feel, having a guide like Saba with you makes it much more memorable. Also, Saba was very communicative ahead of the tour which was really nice for us as we had a few questions about bringing our baby (who loved the tour as well!) and the weather.
    Response from Host, Jul 2021
    Thank you so much for sharing your experience of the PhotoWalks North End tour, Avi. I sincerely appreciate your kind words. I'm so happy you all enjoyed exploring Boston's Little Italy from a different angle. All the best...Saba
