You have to make time for this tour! Nabil is awesome! - My husband and I have done a few food tours, two of which were in Osaka, Japan with another tour company, and this was by far the best one we’ve ever done. Nabil was our guide and from the start he was super personable. He was incredibly knowledgeable about Boston’s seafood history and the history of the Seaport area. We had the best clam chowder and best lobster roll we’ve had on our vacation thus far! The tuna hand roll was an added bonus! You can tell he’s super passionate about what he does and that makes the experience even better. We were a small group which helped and he made it a great experience for my husband and I as well as the awesome couple that was in our group!

Absolutely fantastic experience - Everything was better than I hoped. The food, the architecture, the history, the views, the length of the tour itself were great. I'll be telling other people they should 100% go.

Definitely recommend! - Great tour! Conner was a great guide who brought a lot of history around the Seaport neighborhood. The tour was well paced, we got fried clams, clam chowder, an amazing tuna roll, and a lobster roll sampling while enjoying the Seaport! Definitely recommend this tour, and be sure to ask for Conner!
