| This is my second tour with Michelle Topor. Her knowledge of Italian food, history and the North End all combine for a delightful three hours. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone interested in the history of Boston and food! | ||||||

Very Informative North End Market Tour |
|||||
| Wed, Oct 25, 06 2:00 PM | Tomasello | Female | 50-59 | Local | Other | |
| The people in our group found the tour very interesting. The tour guide was very informative as to types of food and availability throughout the north end. Also was very knowledgeable about the history of the north end. The only negative was the amount of time standing. I would not recommend it for seniors because we couldn't wait to sit down. (We are not seniors yet!!!) | ||||||

An excellent tour of the North End! North End Market Tour |
|||||

| Apart from our migrations, Michelle offered information nonstop for the entire two hours. She has tremendous energy. Michelle began with an historical backdrop and then - for each food related area - provided insights, little known facts, personal recommendations that translated into a true sense of what is a small neighborhood with a big heart. Michelle has lived in the area for many years. Her tour reflects her love of the neighborhood and passion for all things Italian! | ||||||

highly recommended North End Market Tour |

| Wed, Oct 25, 06 10:00 AM | joann27 | Female | 60-69 | Combination | Individual | |
| I just moved to the Boston area and wanted to investigate my new surroundings. This tour was a wonderful start..Very informative and was a just right taste of the North End Italian area. I liked seeing the small out of the way places instead of just all mainstream tourist areas. I will definately be a regular to this area. Michele was a wonderful tour guide and so informative. she truly loves what she does. | ||||||

Fabulous North End Market Tour |
|||||
| Wed, Oct 25, 06 10:00 AM | lynsey21 | Female | 30-39 | Combination | Group of Friends | |
| The tour was excellent. Very informative and we got to sample fabulous food. We were taken to out of the way places that you would never find on your own. A must tour for anyone who loves Italian food. Please provide clearer directions to the meeting place or even change the meeting place to a T stop. | ||||||

| A wonderful way to spend a sunny afternoon in Boston touring the North End. It was like a trip back in time to neighborhood markets where everyone was friendly. | ||||||

I ALSO WISH WE HAD VISITED A FEW MORE MARKETS THAT SOLD PREPARED FOODS.... ASIDE FROM THAT- I WOULD RECOMMEND THE TOUR TO ALL MY FRIENDS... OUR GUIDE RICHARD WAS EXCELLENT AND EXTREMELY KNOWLEDGEABLE. | ||||||

Disappointed North End Market Tour |

| I just took a food tour in New York with my sister and it was truly the highlight of our trip. I talked my husband into going on this tour with me and we were extremely disappointed with our tour in Boston. Our guide was very knowledgeable and nice, but there just was not enough samples offered. When we finished our tour in NY we were very satisfied and full. I just expedited more. My husband will never do this type of tour again. | ||||||

Great Tour in My Own Back Yard North End Market Tour |
|||||
| Sat, Oct 21, 06 9:00 AM | Okolita | Male | 50-59 | Local | Other | |
| We have now lived less than an hour from Boston for 25 years and never really visited the famous North End. My wife arranged the tour for my 50 birthday. We brought our children (25 and 21) as well as another couple. It was a beautiful cool fall day - perfect for a walking tour. If you are interested in getting the inside scoop on all the trendy touristy places to visit, this is NOT the tour for you. If you are more interested in the history of this neighborhood, it's people, traditions and foods then we (all six of us) would highly recommend the tour. The tour was lead by a former chef, with an exceptional knowledge of the North End. You will visit a number of shops, each offering a different aspect of the foods and cultures of the area. The stops are carefully chosen to avoid the hyped up tourist spots and give you a true picture of what the area is really about. It is definitely a learning experience that is fun! We could not believe how quickly the three hours passed. Two disappointments - first, don't worry about ruining your diet. While you get to try many wonderful things at each stop, the samples are quite small. Very effective at getting you to return to the shops after the tour to buy more!!! (which is not a bad thing!) The only other disappointment was not doing the tour sooner!! We will definitely get back to the North End more often and now with a much better knowledge of all it has to offer. | ||||||

| Since it was raining thought they could have cut it a little short. But, it was very informative and helped us become acquainted with the North End. | ||||||

One of the better Boston tours North End Market Tour |

| The tour was great fun. Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable. Only problem...really tough to get a parking spot. Bank on an extra $15 for parking or get explicit details as to how to get there by subway. | ||||||

Birthday gift to my Sicilian Sister-in-law North End Market Tour |
|||||
| Fri, Oct 20, 06 3:00 PM | amserra | Female | 20-29 | Domestic Tourist(s) | Other | |
| On my first trip business trip to Boston, my 21 year old sister-in-law was flying in to meet me over the weekend to celebrate her birthday. I was anxious about the tour being a little too "old" for her, but in actuality, it was just the opposite. Dick did a great job engaging the different people in the group and keeping the energy upbeat and educational despite the gray skies overhead. Thank you for helping me give her a birthday she'll never forget! | ||||||

good tour guide, not enough food tastings North End Market Tour |
|||||
| Fri, Oct 20, 06 10:00 AM | watergirlmv | Female | 30-39 | Domestic Tourist(s) | Group of Friends | |
| this was my 3rd food tour in the past year (the others were in nyc and sf) and i would have to say, it was just okay. compared to the other tours, this one had too much talking, and not enough food tastings. and when we were finally given food tastings, the portion were very minimal. by the end of the 3 hour tour, my friends and i were tired, anxious for it to be over and more importantly, starving for lunch... not sure i would recommend this tour to others. | ||||||

Loved Getting to Know the North End North End Market Tour |

| Wed, Oct 18, 06 2:00 PM | JudithCarter | Female | 60-69 | Domestic Tourist(s) | Couple on a Date | |
| Liked the combination of history, wine and food on the three hour tour. We will go back to the North End and shop at some of the stops we made. We shared our experience with family members who live in the Boston area. | ||||||

doesn't live up to its hype or price tag North End Market Tour |
|||||
| Wed, Oct 18, 06 10:00 AM | annrob | Female | 50-59 | Local | Other | |
| I felt the tour would have been more enjoyable done in reverse with tastings at the meat/cheese markets first and ending with Maria's bakery sweets (also individuals could linger over expresso, coffee or tea since it would be the last stop. Shopkeepers were not particularly happy to have us in their store. I felt we were in the way of their business. I also felt the walking part could be expanded easily rather than pointing downh the street to places of interest. I previously went on a tour through concord adult ed. and have to say it was as good as this one for half the price. Not anythinhg on the current changes in the North End (the past 25 years.) All in all a non-native would find it enjoyable. | ||||||
