A superb trip -- highly recommended The North End Cultural Heritage Tour
Sat, Nov 15, 08 2:00 PM	mjroweuk	Male	20-29	Domestic Tourist(s)	Family Without Children
There is no better way to make an outsider feel welcome in Boston than to take a trip around the delightful North End area with Chris Rossetti. Architecturally beautiful and full of history, the neighbourhood of North End felt like home walking around with Chris at your side detailing all of the things that made it so exciting and enjoyable for him. You'll find out everything about the strong Italian heritage of the area, get to know the charming people that live & work in the area. We were fortunate enough (due to the weather) to have been able to be the sole group in Chris's party, so were treated to an extra specially close experience of the wealth of knowledge that Chris has to share. To you Chris -- many thanks for such an enjoyable day, it was the highlight of our trip to Boston. I strongly recommend this for anyone visiting the area who is interested in history, food and architecture.

The owner/tour guide really knew the culture and heritage of the North End and presented it in a very interesting manner. He has an ability to tell a good story and the personal experience that we had with local shop keepers was exceptional.

Chris Rossetti is a well spoken, easy to understand knowledgeable person. His passion for what he does comes through as you walk the North End with him. We appreciated his attention to detail of the Italian heritage and the events that occured in this historical site. This was our first tour with Chris and will not be our last. We had a very memorable day! Gene, Ann & Zach Benard

Excellent Tour The North End Cultural Heritage Tour
Thu, Jun 5, 08 2:00 PM	bdeon28	Male	40-49	Local	Unspecified
I have lived within a few short miles of the North End almost my whole life and have been there several times (mainly to eat!). It is amazing to me after all those times what I had missed all these years. There was history all around me that I had just never noticed or had looked at it for years but never knew what I was actually looking at. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Boston or even anyone that lives in the area around Boston and just wants a greater appreciation of this area of our city! There is so much historically interesting areas packed in this community that it just amazed me. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and was able to answer the few questions I had easily. It made me think of all the history classes I took back in grade school and high school but never appreciated. This tour would be perfect for showing just how real the events and people of the past were by actually seeing where it all took place. I never had an appreciation for history or the historical significance of the area I lived in until I was much older. If there was a tour like this back then I am sure I would have had a greater appreciation at a much younger age. This is a must see activity in the Boston area!
Great tour, very informative. The North End Cultural Heritage Tour

Highly recommend. Since tour guide lives in North End we kept running into people he knew who had a story to tell. The "story behind the story" was the best part. The factual history is great, but the antidotes are much better. I never realized the history behind some of the buildings I've walked by many times, Now have new perspective of what our ancestors had to go through. Saw a procession of locals carrying a saint throughout the whole North End. Also saw a bocce tournament awards ceremony and talked to a player. The hardest part is wanting to stop in every restaurant and pastry shop. Went by fast. I live in greater Boston and come down to the North End many times a year and if you do too you owe it to yourself to take the tour to get the history. It more than just great food and deserts.
Truly the Best Tour of Boston The North End Cultural Heritage Tour
Tue, Oct 21, 08 11:30 AM	STEFLIPTON	Female	40-49	Local	Group of Friends
Chris Rossetti's tour of the North End was by far the best tour of Boston I have yet encountered. As a resident of Massachusetts I have been here on many occasions but never have I experienced the tastes, smells and culture of this truly special place. Chris shared all the hidden gems of the North End that give this region its wonderful flair. I could have easily spent another 3 hours enthralled with everything there is to offer- especially the food! Stefanie & Katherine

Nice combo of history, local lore, and recommendations
A must-see activity in the Boston area The North End Cultural Heritage Tour
Fri, Oct 17, 08 2:00 PM	AmyGrogan	Female	20-29	Local	Individual
Highly recommend tour. I live on the South Shore and traveling into Boston from time to time. Rarely do I take the time to visit the historical areas such as the North End of Boston. Mr. Rosetti takes you through a very informative historical tour of the area with great stories of the past. If you have a couple of hours to spare in downtown Boston don't hesitate to pass this event by.
We recommend this tour The North End Cultural Heritage Tour

As locals, we found the tour to be historically fascinating and really enjoyed the behind the scenes parts. We walked through areas of the North End we had never seen or noticed on previous visits. We also liked the tips on the restaurants and coffee shops (we went to 2 of them after we finished the tour). This tour is great for locals and tourists - locals will gain new insight and appreciation for one of their neighborhoods. Tourists will learn about a great neighborhood that is losing it's heritage. Chris is very engaging and makes the tour interesting and fun. It was an enjoyable 3 hours.
Great Way to Spend a Sunday Afternoon The North End Cultural Heritage Tour
Sun, Aug 24, 08 1:00 PM	jjhalpin1956	Female	40-49	Local	Couple on a Date
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of the North End. We have been to the North End many times before, however, we visited and enjoyed many places off the beaten path that we would not have known about if we had not taken this tour. It's like looking at the North End with a new set of eyes now that we know some of the stories and history involved that made the North End the unique neighborhood it is. Chris is extremely knowledgeable and easy to be with. We had the feeling we had known him for a long time after spending just 3 hours with him.
Walking thru time in Boston The North End Cultural Heritage Tour
Sat, Aug 23, 08 10:00 AM	drlfamily	Female	50-59	Domestic Tourist(s)	Family Without Children
We have walked the Freedom Trail on our own during past visits. We since have had some enjoyable walking tours in several cities in the world and decided to try one in Boston. We're glad we did. Chris lives in the North End, loves the area and loves history. He has researched the various groups who have settled in Boston since the 1600's, and he is a good storyteller. The North End is a vibrant community today and is home to many Italian businesses and restaurants. Chris knows the best ones whose offerings are reasonably priced. At the end of the tour, we were just where we needed to be for a delicious lunch. If you'd like to refresh your sense of history of this area with its destinations like The Old North Church and Paul Revere's house, I recommend this fun and informative tour.
Unbelievably Great Tour. I highly recommend it! The North End Cultural Heritage Tour

We had visited Boston's North End on our own in the past and enjoyed it. On this trip I saw a flyer for this tour and thought it would be interesting to learn more of the history of the North End and its Italian population. My son and I met Chris at Columbus Park where he immediately impressed us with his enthusiasm for his subject. Chris lives in the North End and his passion for the neighborhood and the historical research he has performed led to the best tour I have ever taken, and I have taken several. It was fun to have locals greet us as they said hello to Chris along the way. He took us to a wonderful Italian specialty store where we were served wonderfully fresh, just made mozzarella cheese. He got us the best seats in the house at the Old North Church and took us to the best little gelato place in the North End. He provided us with both current and historical maps of the North End along with a list of the North End feast dates and all the best restaurants for traditional Italian American comfort food. His attention to detail, his knowledge and his thorough enjoyment of introducing us to his neighborhood made this a truly remarkable tour.
Fantastic trip! The North End Cultural Heritage Tour
