Amazing tour with great food and lots of it! Bobby and his stories were well worth the price alone. But you also won’t leave hungry. Everything timed out perfectly- our favorite food tour ever. Definitely recommend!

    What an excellent tour!!! Bobby is so knowledgeable and passionate about the North End and thanks to his stories of growing up there we really felt as though we were part of the neighborhood. Everyone seems to know him and he knows them. Each of the food/drink stops were delicious and we left feeling as though we really knew the neighborhood. The tour is a great value and our party of 6 middle to old aged people all loved it!! Don’t hesitate to book this tour, we’d do it again if (when) we come back.

    Best tour!

    Go hungry! Bobby the owner and tour guide is very personable, fun and knowledgeable. Everyone knows him. He tours you around to the local places and the best food. So much so that we went back to the restaurant three days later! He tells you about all the north end history as a true local who grew up there.

    Amazing North End Food Tour

    Bobby provides a great tour that gives historical information and first hand accounts of the neighborhood's past. The food and beverage stops are good enough, but the history behind each make for a greater experience.
