Seeing the North End with an Italian native - molto bene! - We had the absolute best time with Bobby! The history, the food and all the shops and even seeing the apartment building where he grew up in the North End was so special. Being able to tour the North End of Boston with someone who grew up there and is a vital part of the culture was incredible. Perfect amount of people in our group so there were enough to make it feel like an event. We're going back in September! Thanks Bobby.

Historical food tour from a true local - Our guide Bobby Agrippino was like having a local friend taking you on a tour of his town. He seemed to know everyone in the neighborhood and we even ran into his Mom. Bobby was versed on the historical aspects of the North End from colony settlers to present. He is a true local showing us where he grew up, went to school and his first restaurant job at Cantina’s intertwined with this history we tried delicious authentic foods with a brief history of their origins. The pizza and pasta was my favorite. The wine was so good we bought a few bottles to take home to Texas. Thanks for an authentic,entertaining and scrumptious tour

A Great Time Filled With Neighborhood History and AMAZING Food! - We did this tour with a large group of ladies who were on a girls trip. We went back and forth between this tour and another popular food tour and we are so glad we booked this one. Bobby is so knowledgeable about his neighborhood and he loves to share it with you. You can tell how proud he is of where he comes from and he genuinely wants to share it with you. We saw an elderly local cook book star, Marguerite getting out of her car. Bobby called to her and she waved. Everyone knows Bobby. The food was absolutely delicious and plentiful. You will not leave hungry. We had 2 vegetarians in our group and they were happy with most of the food. The only thing they didn't really get to eat was the arancini and Italian sandwich. I would happily do this tour again. I can't recommend it enough!

Great food and guide - What an awesome tour! Bobby is from the area and shared great places to eat. We tried pizza, pasta, Italian sandwich, Limoncello, cannoli and more. We were also introduced to local shops carrying a wide variety of Italian goods. You will be stuffed and happy at the end of your tour.
