| We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of the North End. Our guide was personable and knowledgeable. Thanks to him, I feel quite confident about returning to the neighborhood to shop since we live within an hour's drive and would not hesitate to do so. Would definitely take the tour again-this time with friends. Worth it for the samples alone. Lots of fun. | ||||||

We liked it a lot!

| I didn't know what to expect when my partner mentioned that he read about this tour in one of his cooking magazines. But I enjoyed it tremendously. And so did he. We got to know the North End and tried a lot of samples. I were explained how this or that food item is produced and I also started to appreciate the hand made quality knowing that it entails a big ticket price. But it's a 3 hour long walking tour and for those of you who is not in good physical shape I think it would be a little hard. | ||||||

| This was a wonderful cultural experience. Our tour guide Jim was very knowledgeable about Chinese languages, customs, history, and of course, cuisine. I highly recommend this tour, especially for Boston locals who will be able to frequent the local shops. My husband and I will definitely be signing up for the North End tour. A bargain considering the amount of time and expertise of the guide! Thanks Jim! | ||||||

| Chinatown is very busy and impossible to go on you own. It was wonderful having a guide who spoke fluently the language and led us through the ins and outs of the area. Since we are foodies ourselves, it was really great taking a walk through the local shops and tasting and learning all the way. The dim sum lunch was outstanding...something we would not have tried on our own. The supermarket was an experience with all the fresh sea life and Chinese-specific vegetables some that I have never seen before but anxious now to use...another reason it was nice to have an experienced chef along. | ||||||

| Loved the tour as it answered many questions that I have often wondered about...olive oil, balsamic vinegar, pastas etc. It was fun.....our guide was exceptional being a chef himself, he was more than could be hoped for. Also we did luck out and it was only the 4 of us which made it very personalized. Thanks alot! | ||||||

| We saw all the hideaways and hidden jewels that are hard to find on your own. The guide was an experienced chef and had great depth of knowledge and very congenial. Wonderful day! We liked it so much that we took the Chinatown tour. | ||||||

An area rich in history and culture

| This a great tour to learn the history of Boston's North End and its rich Italian culture, traditions, and symmetry of the Italian provinces. Three hours of touring will open your eyes to the importance of healthy unadulterated food in your daily diet, wholesomeness, and regional authenticity. You will want to go home change your eating habits, becoming healthier in the process and having your family enjoy your cooking more. Look forward to going back on your own, buying great foods with a rich history. | ||||||

| My daughter & I were given this gift certificate from my office staff. And, I signed up on my daughter's 24th birthday in June. The tour guide was extremely knowledgable, interesting, funny, & thorough. His choices of a bakery, market shop, vegetable store, cheese & deli shop & wine store were perfect. His stories & tales were enjoyable. At our 1st stop, Maria's Pastry Shop, we were surprised with a sweet birthday cake for my daughter. That was so thoughtful. | ||||||

| This tour was brilliant. The details and descriptions of food interwoven with the Italian way of life, the samples we tasted, the obvious love that our host has for the Italian way of life and food was engaging and contagious. This tour is a "must do" for anyone visiting Boston. | ||||||

| My family and I loved the food tour of the North End! Jim was a great guide- he was very knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, and a lot of fun! We enjoyed the different stores we went to and the different ingredients we got to taste. We could not get enough of Maria's amaretto macaroons! We also love the prosciutto and cheese from the meat grocery we went to. Thanks for a great time! | ||||||

Left wanting to see more

| I would recommend this tour to anyone who would like a more in-depth look at the North End of Boston. I loved meeting Pat, the 94 year old resident of North End, sitting on his park bench, dressed up, and loving to talk to each group of people as they passed. He could surely tell the stories about that street in those early years of the century. The stores we visited were authentic, the owners and family members genuine. I felt like we talked a little too much, spent too much time in a very few establishments. I wanted to see more than that one small area of the neighborhood. A more fast paced, more coverage, etc. would be my recommendation. | ||||||

Not what I anticipated

| I had been wanting to do the tour for years and was very excited about it. It was the perfect day weather wise and the tour guide was very personable. It was different than I had anticipated. There seem to be alot of discussion on history which seem to overshadow the "food" aspect. I was also a little disappointed in the tastings that we did. Some of the foods were an odd choice and trying the balsamic & olive oil by spoon caught be by surprise. I loved the concept, it just didn't meet my expectations. | ||||||
