5.00Saba brought us into heart of Beacon Hill, Truly was one of the best tours we have been on in our travels 🩷 Thank you so much for bringing Beacon Hill, her stories, and her people to life for us- all the way down to the real life experience of meeting and chatting with a world famous author whose medical thrillers we’ve read.

5.00We spent an afternoon with Saba walking around Beacon Hill, and found at each stop we learned something new and interesting about the various houses and locations (we live in Boston and have walked through this area often). We also enjoyed seeing some of the hidden courtyard gardens, and Saba was very knowledgeable about the neighborhood and residents (both former and current) of Beacon Hill. A wonderful way to get to know Beacon Hill, and I would highly recommend this tour.

5.00I had the best time! It was a rainy day but very beautiful. It was just Saba and I. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the area and I learned a lot about the houses, buildings and people both past and present. She truly loves the area. I got great tips on photo taking with my iPhone and am excited to put my new “skills” to use! Thank you for such a wonderful time!
