Wonderful food tour - Bobby hosted a wonderful tour, feeding us well and teaching us all about his town. Highly recommend. We had pizza, pasta, limoncello, chicken parmesan sandwiches, tasted olive oil, balsamic vinegar, mozzarella, learned all about little Italy and finished with a huge cannoli.

Gotta do this! - Our tour guide Bobby was magnificent. Not only has he been born and raised in the Italian district, he has also been in the food business. He knows everyone in that area of town. He not only lead us to wonderful foods at hand selected restaurants, he gave us a history of the neighborhood, including where he grew up, his family parish, and other highlights of the area that really added to our experience. Highly recommend!

Local Tour Guide + Great Eats - This was a fantastic tour of the North End and well worth the price. You get to try a variety of local food and beverages, and hear about the history of the North End from a Bobby, a local tour guide who has intimate knowledge of the area and knows the store owners personally. It was a great experience

Authentic and Personal - Bobby was incredibly knowledgeable and kind. We had such a great time with him and truly appreciated the uniqueness of having a tour guide who was born, raised, and still resides in the area. Everywhere we went, Bobby seemed to know someone—whether in the restaurants or just walking down the street. It made the experience feel authentic and personal. On top of that, the food was fantastic, and there was so much! Highly recommend.
