Italian or not - you'll love this tour
Sat, Nov 8, 08   2:00 PM smithe1 Female 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
I was a little concerned when the tour started but 3 hours flew by with lots of laughs, wonderful information and delicious tastes of Italy. Well worth the money. Our guide (so sorry I can't remember her name) was a joy full of knowledge and enthusiasm. Her love of the North End was unmistakable.

Extremely informative and entertaining...

I bought tickets for the North End Market Tour for my girlfriend for our three year anniversary. My girlfriend is of Italian descent and loves to cook. She was amazed at all the information that was given to us on the tour and amazed at how much she didn't know about the various Italian food styles. It was the perfect gift for her and she is going to recommend it to the rest of her family.

I felt like I was in the presence of my grandparents! This was the most wonderful experience--even more than I'd hoped for. The combination of history and Italian culture was superb. I recommend this for anyone and everyone who wants to connect with their roots. I wish I lived in the North End!!

We LOVED the North End tour
Sat, Nov 8, 08   9:00 AM ababroz Female 50-59 Local Group of Friends
We had heard this tour of the Northend was great from numerous friends- but no one could really describe how fun, historically interesting, and educational this was . Jim was our guide and wove wonderful stories and anecdotes into the walk. LOVED poking around the small stores and trying different foods. Everyone from my group has been enthusiastically recommending this to our co-workers and friends. I've already offered this to friends when they come out to visit! This is THE BEST!

Wealth of knowledge about Italian cooking
Sat, Nov 8, 08   9:00 AM AnnBrown Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
This tour was very fun and very educational. I'll never look at a bottle of olive oil the same. My father is first-generation Italian-American, and it took him back to his childhood; he absolutely loved it. Our tour guide, Jim, was funny and very knowledgeable about Italian cooking and its history. I would recommend this tour very highly!

An Enjoyable Afternoon in the North End
Sat, Nov 1, 08   2:00 PM JanisFox Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
After many years of visiting Boston, we enjoyed having the opportunity to be in the North End for an extended time and learn about the Italian food traditions. The tour guide was very knowledgeable not only about the food but also about different aspects of the Italian language and culture. All of the shops were interesting. It was great to find out about recommended restaurants and then, to have a chance to eat dinner in one of them that night after the tour. We hope to go back and revisit some of the stores and of course, try another restaurant!

Felt like we stepped inside a lifestyle television show for living the good life Italian style. Much, much more than a culinary tour of the North End!

Our tour guide Jim was very informative and knowledgeable. All the sites visited were interesting and places we had never visited before even though we are locals from the suburbs. Enjoyed the history of food in China. Everyone in my group said they had a fabulous time and plan on revisiting some of the shops and eateries.

Michele was wonderful and informative. We appreciated the background history of the North End. We would most definately take this tour again and bring others. It was so much fun.

A MUST DO in Boston!!!
Fri, Oct 31, 08   10:00 AM mcclovis Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Other
My husband and I took the tour not knowing exactly what to expect. I was so pleased we went into it without much information as we were surprised at every turn. Our tour guide (Not Michele-a gentleman who is a former chef-forgot his name) was so interesting and knowledgeable about the stores, people, culture, and history of the North End. He introduced us to so many foods and flavors with anecdotes to go along with each item/store/person. A truly special tour. I would do it again in a heartbeat.

informative, fun, delicious
Fri, Oct 31, 08   10:00 AM MLKerrigan Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
An incredible amount of information was packed into our tour......about history, food, culture, cooking, diet and of course, the neighborhood. Our guide (Jim) was personable, fun, funny and as mentioned, very knowledgeable. I wanted to plan, shop and host a dinner party immediately after the tour.

Jim, our tour guide was so knowledgeable. I am a caterer so I love anything to do with food. I took my Mom as a birthday gift. We both really enjoyed it. We are considering doing the Chinatown tour.

Wonderful!

I thoroughly enjoyed the North End Market Tour along with my daughter and a good friend. It was like a private tour since it was just the three of us. Our guide, Jim, was very imformative. We plan on going back into the North End before the holidays to purchase some food products that interested us. It was really nice to be able to sample some of the food products, olive oil and vinegar. Would highly recommend the tour and would certainly make a wonderful gift for someone.
