  Michele did a fantastic presentation - she is clearly passionate about her neighborhood! It was nice to get an "inside look" at an area of Boston I have always enjoyed.

  This tour was very informative. I learned a lot about the Italian cuisine. I appreciated to get the paper work with map and locations. I loved having the samples in every shop.

  My son and I have been to the North End literally hundreds of times and not known some of these wonderful businesses existed. My guest from California was visiting the North End for the first time. We all thoroughly enjoyed our day. There was something for everyone! The food was great, the guide was wonderful. We stayed on our feet for a long time, but it wasn't that much walking, my guess would be less than a mile. Our only recommendation would be to take the earlier tour, allowing time to return to all those wonderful spots for shopping afterward. Our tour ended at 6PM and lots of shops are closing by that time.

  We take many tours when vacationing and this was one of the most interesting. It was a very good tour of the markets and stores; however, it would have been even better to tour one of the restaurants or trattorias. Geared to adults who enjoy food and a history of the neighborhood. Children would not enjoy this event.

  This was a great introduction to the North End! We learned about culture, history, food and cuisine. The tour was a perfect size - 13 - and a perfect length to cover all the information. We used it as an opening act for a three day sisters weekend. We all benefitted from our guide's store of knowledge and later returned to every shop we had visited. Thanks for the fun!

  This tour was very special. My husband and i weren't sure what to expect, but we found Michele to be extremely knowledgable and entertaining, and we found the ground and information covered in the tour to be really interesting and unique. Her enthusiasm and passion were infectious. My husband is in the restaurant industry, and even he learned many things about food, cooking and ingredients! Overall, we both highly recommend this experience. It was the only tour that we went on during our 3 day trip to Boston, mainly because after having completed it, we felt that we learned so much about Boston, its communities and history that it would be difficult to top!

  Despite the rains, we found ourselves having an enjoyable time. Our tour guide was extremely informitive and kept us interested. The various types of shops were interesting to visit, and the employees eager to please. Food samplings at each stop were great. We have a greater understanding and passion for the 'neighborhood" after visiting it 'off the beaten path'. At the end of the three hours, we all commented on how quickly the time went by. One suggestion, is to allow for extra time after the tour, to go back to the shops to make your purchases. You will want to bring home some of your samplings! Enjoy! We did!
Rating: 5 Great way to explore the North End !!

  The tour was fun and informative. Michelle's introduction to the North End neighborhood revealed shops and restaurants that we will go back to again, but would have never found on our own.

  Despite torrential rain and 50 mph winds, our group had a terrific time. The guide was very knowledgeable and it was a great blend of education, fun and new experiences. I would highly recommend this tour. With an Italian background, talking with the shop owners was like being with my family when I was a child. I also have a much greater appreciation of how Italians view food and eating and can see why a meal in Italy (I had been there) was so much more enjoyable than one here in the states.

  Michele's tour is fun, informative and very unique. You get an insider's view of Boston's very ethnic North End. Her enthusiasm for Italy's people and it's food is contagious. The mutual respect between Michele and the proprietors of the various business is warming and credible. Cooks and non-cooks alike will enjoy this tour and will leave you with the satisfaction of new tastes, new knowledge and new experiences. The neighborhood and it's charm will call you back to spend more time expanding on her recommendations. Book reservations at any of her restaurant recommendations and definitely spend time at her recommended cafe and pastry shops. Your only dissappointment will be that you can't possibly eat it all every day and that her vast knowledge is not in book form yet! For tourists it is a "non touristy " activity. Not cheesy or over done. It is a worthwhile use of any limited time spent in Boston. For locals it is a great way to get to know this area, and to expand your "gastro" knowledge and meet other locals, too. I recommended this tour to a local while sitting in Starbucks waiting for the rain to stop! Everyone's response is the same, "I need to do that"! Don't wait - just do it. You won't be dissppointed.
