The guide was excellent. I learned more about Italian cooking in three hours than I had learned in the last 10 years. Highly recommend. |

The guide was professional. The tour changed the way I will buy food, especially pasteries. I have been to Marias twice since. 3 hours flew by. Can't wait |

The North End Market Tour was truly outstanding. Our guide Jim provided excellent insights, fun facts and a generally entertaining time. Not only did I learn about the North End, I learned about Italian cooking in general. Well worth the tour and one of my favorite parts of my trip to Boston. |

My husband and I had a wonderful experience. Our tour guide, Jim, was so knowledgeable and entertaining.
We are both of Italian heritage and listening to the background on some of the foods that we grew up on was so very interesting. We can not wait to come back to the North End and shop at some of the vendors we visited and try some of the recommended restaurants. |

De-Mystifying Chinatown
|

It was a delightful and fascinating tour led by Jim who de-mystified Boston's Chinatown. His depth of knowledge of the culture and history greatly enhanced the experience. The language barrier in Chinatown often makes it difficult to appreciate chinese food so having Jim host the group for Dim Sum was not only great fun but delicious as well. Next time we are in the area we will certainly be more confident in exploring the restaurants and supermarket. Thanks for a great experience! |

Don't much like tours, but really anything to do with food. Our guide was an ex chef and a true Bostonian. Made for a great time |

We were in Boston for a long weekend for our Anniversary and read about this tour on Trip Advisor. We enjoyed it very much with a combination of history and insight into Italian and Italian-American cuisine and culture this tour is very educational. The different shops visited and the tastings were great too, we would highly recommend this tour. |

I'm not one that goes nuts about a tour. I prefer to venture on my own, but this tour was an exception. Informative, never boring, nice pauses, no sense of rushing and we never touched the tourist traps. My family commented several times after the tour about things they learned. Excellent time |
