| I am from Italy, and I heard a lot about Boston's North end. I found it incredibly fascinating to learn what kind of things Americans don't know about our culture, and learn about how the Italian culinary culture evolved in the US since the first immigration wave at the beginning of the 1900s.
Our amazing guide was incredibly knowledgeable about the little nuances of Italian culture and how it evolved in the century it's been away from Italy. Fascinating tour, I highly recommend it! |

| Michele is very personable and informed. This was my third time on the tour over the past 10 or 12 years. Always interesting and a wonderful thing to do with someone who has never been before. |

| The group had a great time on this trip and would enthusiastically reccomend it to others. The one complaint was that the cost of the trip was extremely expensive and limited the number of people who signed up. |

| This was a wonderful tour. We all thoroughly enjoyed it. Our tour guide (Richard, I believe) was knowledgeable and entertaining. The information that was handed out on the local shops , the tour, and restaurants were extremely helpful. As was the map. We were able to go back to all of the shops after the tour. The only problem we had was as the area got busier, it also got louder and we had a hard time hearing him over the street noise. If the tour guide could wear some kind of microphone, that would help. We will be recommending this tour to others. Loved it! Loved it! Loved it! |

| The guide was excellent and informed. However, the tour route and locations were uncomfortable with lots of standing and poor accoustics. The weather is deifinately an issue and in this case the wind was relentless. |
