Great food, Rich History, Beautiful Culture - What a fabulous experience. Bobby was so easy to talk to. He had so much insight and knowledge in all things North End. I’d been to the North End many many times before. I thought I knew it and I was set with my favorites. Bobby’s insight and passion showed me a side I didn’t know existed.

This is an INCREDIBLE Boston/culinary experience! - This tour was, without a doubt, the best food tour that my family has ever taken, and it was the singular highlight of our trip to Boston. Bobby's insights, knowledge, and history were on full display. The food was INCREDIBLE, and the quantity is overwhelming! We cancelled our dinner reservations after taking this tour because we were so full! It's a great value and a lifetime travel memory for us.

Amazing!! 10 out of 10 - Bobby was absolutely amazing. He took us to some of the best food places and taught us the history of the north/italian area. His suggestions were second to none and he knows everyone. His slogan “I know a Guy” couldn’t be more true. Best tour in the city I’ve ever done.

Best tour! - Go hungry! Bobby the owner and tour guide is very personable, fun and knowledgeable. Everyone knows him. He tours you around to the local places and the best food. So much so that we went back to the restaurant three days later! He tells you about all the north end history as a true local who grew up there.

Mamma Mia! Go take this tour! - Great tour of Italian food in Boston’s North End. We had two types of pizza, pasta, an Italian sandwich, and multiple other samples before wrapping it up with delicious cannolis and cookies. Visited lots of great institutions and learned a lot of Bobby’s personal history and connections with the neighborhood. Worth the price of admission!

Bobby is DEFINITELY THE BEST! - We met Bobby, our guide for the North End Boston Food Tour, on a very rainy afternoon in Little Italy. Everyone showed up despite the wet conditions, excited to be educated on the culture and history of his neighbourhood as well as sample the foods and wine. Bobby is so passionate and proud of his historic neighbourhood, and this reflects on the amazing experience shared by all. We thoroughly enjoyed all his stories and especially the delicious foods and wine. Excellent food tour - even in the pouring rain. Totally recommended!
