“Our guide Maura was very knowledgeable about the history of the Era and area. She had a passion for the subject and it was evident that she enjoyed what she was doing. We were very appreciative for that as opposed to someone who just recited dates and places. Highly recommend this tour and if you're lucky Maura will be your guide!”

Review of Boston’s Beacon Hill photo walking tour, with historic streets, Acorn Street, local stories, photo tips, price, and practical advice.

“Interesting stories. Loved the history. Interesting tour. The photo training refers to angles and positioning. Nice shots throughout if you’re into taking photos while touring. Saba is very sweet and gave a nice tour. I went on a rainy, cloudy and “brisk” day. I can imagine it’s stunning on a sunny day.”
