Must do - Tony was superb! He was very knowledgeable, but very personal at the same time. It was a must-do experience in Boston. He took us to a lot of places I didn't know from the internet.

A Little Lost, A Little Hungry, A Lot Happy - I got lost trying to find the spot. I may have missed the tour guide once or twice. Still, the once on the tour the smells of food made it worthwhile. We got a chance to stop at a couple of places where I had my first Sicilian soft drink and sfogliatella. Also, we learned of the rich history of the area which was in three(?) blocks. The tour guide was very knowledgeable not only about the area but also how to get around. While this is a newer tour, he worked through some of the quirks of some of the restaurants. That was awesome. I would be happy to go on the tour again.

Wonderful Experience - North End Walking Tour was excellent. Tony was an engaging storyteller and guide. I loved the mix of food, sight-seeing, and history. I enjoyed going to several places that I would not have found on my own. Bring some cash to buy the treats you want. Highly recommend!!

Our favorite Boston tour! - This was our favorite Boston tour! Tony was so engaging and his genuine love of the neighborhood came through. We enjoyed hearing about the various immigrant groups from Colonial days thru today. It was a good pace, and we liked the stops along the way where we could purchase and try foods as desired. Great walking tour!

Great Experience! North End Tour. - T was awesome. Very personable, knew a lot of history of the neighborhood and the city, and very informative. The North End Tour was great, and I would recommend to anybody visiting wanting to check out old historic Italian eatery. From pasta restaurants to 24/7 pizza and pastries. I would recommend doing the pub crawl as well when available! Tony was great and I couldn't say better things about him. Thank you for showing us around, we went back the next day and got pasta and sauce and some pastries to take home to Cleveland.
