Low-key afternoon with tons of information North End Market Tour

My boyfriend and I enjoyed the tour very much. The North End is just beautiful and being there in the afternoon, before it gets really busy, is nice. Our tour guide, Beth, did a great job, was very knowledgeable and told us some great stories about the year she spent living in Italy.
Really a good look at the North End North End Market Tour

Enjoyed our tour with Beth very much. We got off the main street of the North End and visited some of the other shops, etc we had not been too. We went back to one of the places for a sub later and it was really good! We then went to another restaurant the next night she recommended. Great choices!

As part of a surprise birthday get away weekend for my sister-in-law, I treated her, my brother and my husband to the North End Market Tour. It was my third time on the tour and I woud go again and again and again. They all loved the tour and found it fun, exciting, informative and oh so delicious! We are all eager to go back to discover more hidden gems amongst the narrow streets of the North End. It is truly an experience that everyone should take advantage of. It's a MUST DO for anyone visiting Boston. Regards, 4 Very Satisfied Tour Guests

After the tour, we returned to several of the shops to purchase everything from figs to coffee to Greek oregano to ravioli and rum cakes. I am a much more knowledgable consumer of Italian food since the tour. I can tell a female eggplant from a male eggplant!
Excellent! North End Market Tour

I live in the neighborhood and learned a tremendous amount of new information about the history of the North End and the evolution of Italian food in this country. I also visited new shops and markets that until the tour I had casually walked by without notice -- but no more! Thanks for a great morning and a great tour guide, Beth.
Great Experience! Boston Chinatown Market Tour
Sat, Oct 10, 09 9:30 AM	jhilyard	Female	30-39	Local	Family Without Children
Having already been on a tour of the North End with Michelle, I had high expectations for the Chinatown tour. My husband and I greatly enjoyed our tour with Jim. We found him to be well-spoken, knowledgeable, and fun. After a short lecture about Chinese history and immmigration in Boston (and a discussion of why what most Americans consider Chinese food really isn't and how it came to be), we set off to try Chinese BBQ, visit 2 bakeries (one for sweets and one for bubble tea), a Chinese herb shop, a grocery store, and a tea/antique shop. The last stop was for dim sum...great experience and so nice to have someone to guide us through the etiquette involved. Jim was even kind enough to return to the grocery store with us to locate an unusual ingredient found in the Chinese BBQ we had sampled earlier. Make sure you bring a canvas shopping bag and a camera with you because you are going to want to take photos and do some shopping after the tour is over! We look forward to the next tour!!
Tour guide was knowledgeable,however, expected mor North End Market Tour

A group of four friends went on Saturday, 9:00am tour. The guide tour was knowledgeable and we enjoyed the history he shared of Boston. The entry to the variety of pastries, wines, food stores was also good. I believe there should have been a little something at the end of the tour, prehaps a pasta dish with meats, cheeses, dessers from the various places we toured. For $50+ each, Pasta is cheap, just thought it would have added much and then you could have sad this cheese is from the store we visited, etc with cheese. Otherwise, good.
Worth the time and money! North End Market Tour

I have been to Boston many times and even walked through the North End but had never done the tour before. I had a great time and learned a lot. I enjoyed the tastings and the short walk. What a beautiful neighborhood with friendly people and great shops! Our guide was amazing and very knowledgeable. I'm going for the Chinatown Tour the next trip!

Our guide was fun, very knowledgeable and exuberant of the sites we visited. I also felt he was honest about the tour itself, not hype of trying to make a sell for the vendors. The places chosen to tour sold themselves.

Michele Topor is knowledgeable about the history of the North End and its Italian cuisine. It is helpful that she is part of the neighborhood and has genuine information about restaurants, foods, sources, shops and its people. The 3-hour tour went by quickly. It had everything from food, spirits, history and laughter too. The tour was not only memorable but most importantly believable. My daughter who is 19 and I will definitely recommend Michele's tours. Next time I'm in Boston visiting my daughter, we'll definitely sign up for her Chinatown Tour.

As the mom of 4 children under the age of 12, this was a perfect way to spend a Saturday afternoon as a girls day out with my friends. We visited the hidden away jewels of the North End and got to have little tastes here and there. Us girls had fun even in the rain!!!! Highly reccommend the tour. Thanks
