	Great tour! North End Market Tour
	Sat, Dec 30, 06 9:00 AM	rhotin	Female	60-69	Local	Couple on a Date
	We had a wonderful three hours touring the North End. Jim was a great tour director, very knowledgable and informed about the history of the North End and the variations in cooking customs in Italy. We visited many shops and learned to appreciate the best of the best as in Balsamic vinegar, like a fine wine or aged scotch. After the tour we felt like we had an insiders knowledge of the NE. We had a wonderful lunch at Antico Forno on Salem St., a great recommendation. Before leaving Boston we retraced our steps and purchased a bottle of wine, homemade pasta, sauce and meatballs,and my favorite stop, homemade bread and wonderful pastries from Maria's on Cross St. Magnifico! Splendido!

	The tour was very organized and well thought out, but I feel it was a bit expensive for what it offered. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the area and was very professional.

	My husband and I just moved to the area and my mother-in-law was visiting for the holidays. We all loved the tour. It was lots of fun and very informative. I learned so much about Italian culture and Italian cooking. Seeing the North End in light of the tour was very nice. We will definitely visit the North End for shopping and eating as often as we can! I think that the tour is great for both locals and tourists!

	I brought my parents and my daughters (ages 10 and7) on the tour--each of us enjoyed it. Beth, our guide, really knew her stuff and answered questions from all. Sample provided by the various stops on the tour were perfectly proportioned and gave a well-rounded sampling of the North End's best. Lots of fun.

	A full on 3 hours, not for the faint hearted. A fabulous find and an intensive informative insight into Boston's Italian heritage and food. Like us you will need to be passionate about food and wine.
	Good tour. North End Market Tour

	I was familiar with most of the shops we toured and nearly all the samples tasted. Therefore I was slightly disappointed that there was not much new for me. Anyone with less knowledge than I had would find it highly informative. I would recommend to anyone not well aquainted with italian cooking. Or to cooks who don't know where or what to shop for. And it would make a fun day for tourists.
	informative and entertaining. North End Market Tour

	Michele was our guide for this tour. She has alot of knowledge about the area and the different tips in prolonging the product you are buying. Each store's information was valuable and useful in learning the different vegetables, fruits, and wines that is not commonly found in my area of the country. Later, when you visit these shops again, the clerks/owners knows who you are and makes you feel even more welcome to shop in their stores/shops. I really enjoyed the tour very much and will do it again . Thanks again, Michele, for making my afternoon the most enjoyable visit to Boston.

	I was taken by Michelle's knowledge, charm, humor, and great love and passion for Italien cooking and foods. I was taken by her knowlege and interest in nutrition and healthy eating habits. Refreshing in this day and age. I emailed her with a question when I got home. Her response was quick and very informative. I would give her tour an A++.

	Even thought I live in NH, I found this tour full of new and interesting ideas regarding the North End. My next trip to the area will be heightened by what I learned. I would even consider shopping in the area now that I have been exposed to new foods, and a deeper understanding of the "best" food products. What a good way for my friend and I to spend an afternoon in Boston- not doing the same old things. Thanks.
