our guide was extremely knowlegable about the Little Italy area. He was interesting and fun, and we had a great time. Were able to purchase delish food, at the recommendation of our tour guide (pizza, huge subs, incredible cannolis).

As Temps. dropped to an historic low, we requested a refund due to the hazards of falling on the walk during our tour of Boston one day earlier. A refund was denied. Not happy!!

Andy was a phenomenal tour guide with a great personality and deep knowledge of the subject matter. We learned a lot about the North End’s history and had the opportunity to try some great food.

A mix of information not only about the food of the area but also about the history. Well worth the money.

Tony was a great tour guide. He was very personable, knowledgeable, and informative. He made sure everyone was accounted for but didn’t rush us. The tour exceeded our expectations, and we highly recommend it!

Although fun I just don’t think someone walking me around is worth $35. I was under the impression that it included tiny edible items at a few distinct places not that we would pay for food and keep walking

I suggest going early in your trip so you have options to hit throughout your stay.Go hungry because there are so many places to get food you really can’t eat at all of them. Places are cash only and there is sometimes uphill walking for those who have health issues.

My husband and I were not able to take the tour. He got a stomach bug on Friday night. I tried to reach out to your company but could not access your website from my phone to request a date change. I am really disappointed. Also your first text to download the vouch would not work either.

It was great! Tony was so knowledgeable about the history and food venues of the North End! He showed us some secret spots that I’ve walked right past many times! Absolute gems!

We had a great time learning the history and enjoying some great food! We went back to several of the places we visited during the rest of our trip.

We heard from several sources that the North end was a great restaurant experience. This tour was our hope to get an over view before we picked a restaurant. Only saw 2 pastry shops and a pizza shop. Not worth the time or $$

All the history of the north end was so interesting. Cady was very knowledgeable and easy to listen to
Adam_B, Aug 2024
Very knowledgeable on the history and recommendations. Very affable person and it was a great experience.
Ken_J, Jul 2024
Tony is truly a local historian. We have lived here our whole lives and still learned a lot! That being said, we were misled by the website and didn't know the food cost extra.
Karen_L, Jun 2024
Experiencing the bakery and pizza shops, the Paul Revere and North Church history, and the candid Boston molasses disaster.
SHARI_S, Nov 2023
Waste of money and misleading. You can do this yourself. Food not included. No need for this tour. Better out there.
