Very informative but a Little too long

The gentleman who ran our tour was so very nice and gave us some wonderful history of the area. I just think that some of the stops could have been a little shorter. All in all I would recommend this to friends.

Very Interesting. Loved the grocery store.

We found the tour to be very interesting. We went with my 25 -ear-old daughter and her new boyfriend and they also enjoyed it very much. They live in Boston and are planning on going back and checking out the stores/restaurants which were recommended. A few more samples would have been nice, but we truly enjoyed what we got. Just a few fine points: Have a stop in the middle to sit down. We were hot and would have enjoyed the break. It was a lot of standing. We did the great lemon slushes near the end and were very hot by then. The directions said that we met near the Paul Revere house. Cross and Salem are not near there at all. A few store names that were located near there would have been helpful. Loved the handouts and will use them in the future. We found Michelle to be very knowledgeable and she quickly answered any questions. We realize that these were her opinions and thought very highly of them. I would not hesitate to book another trip with this site on my return visit. Well done.

Fun outing with friends

With perfect weather & an exceptional guide of the North End, our day was really fun. Michele Topor gave a enthusiastic & informative tour full of tips & samples of regional food at several markets. Having traveled extensively to Italy & now living in the heart of the North End, Michele was right at home in the neighborhood & was able to answer all our questions. Each of us was given several pages of information regarding favorite markets, specialties & directions to each. Also the same for restaurants. At the end of the tour which is contained in just a few blocks, we were able to backtrack to purchase items of interest that were presented during the tour. We ended the day, sitting in an open air restaurant sipping wine & discussing what a great day we had. We are now planning a trip in the fall for a tour of Chinatown. I hope this was helpful to you.

What a great day! Learned about the history of the North End and how Italian American came to be. Not only experienced the stores and their goods but also gained insight to who owned the store and it's history. Well paced and Michele was fresh and passionate about sharing and teaching. Most enjoyable!

We toured with Michelle Topor, and found her to be extremely knowledgeable and engaging. The samples were wonderful, and we got a lot of great ideas on how to use the ingredients that we learned about. We can't wait to try the Chinatown tour.

It was a very fun and factual 3 hours around the North End. Our guide really "knew her stuff" and gave us lots of interesting info. We sampled at each stop and most of us made our way back to the bakery for treats to take home.
