History, Food and Fun! - The Foodie Tour was a perfect way to introduce a group of people to Boston. Audrey not only has tremendous knowledge of Boston history, she's fun and makes you feel like you've know her forever. Apparently she's really good at that, since it seemed she did know everyone in the North End! She brought us to wonderful eateries that perfectly represented the charm and history of this iconic neighborhood. Highly recommend!

Delicious & Fun - From beginning to end, this was a great tour. The food at all stops was absolutely delicious. There was a great variety. It felt like we were with a celebrity because Audrey seemed to know everyone. We got to meet a few of the restaurant owners & get some inside scoop. She was extremely knowledgeable about everything on the North End. There was a mix-up with the time but Audrey was very accommodating and everything worked out perfectly. I would definitely do it again & have already recommended it to family.

The best way to walk and eat through the North End! - This tour was so much fun! Audrey was funny and knowledgeable, and made the day feel like a walk through the neighborhood with friends. The weather was iffy, but we so appreciated that Audrey was willing to still try to go out, and it all worked out! I would happily eat at each of the stops again. Both my friend and I purchased items from the different stops. The walk is totally do-able, and overall I would do this again in a heartbeat! Take the tour, you won’t regret it!

Loved everything about this foodie tour! - Our tour (and tour guide Audrey) exceeded our expectations in every way. Audrey seems to know everyone in the North End and all the best places to sample the best of the neighborhood. She also knows a lot about the history of the area and of the restaurants and food purveyors there. Our multi-generational family group got to try SO many foods and visit a great many charming places. The walk was well paced and easy. This has our highest recommendation. Just a lovely, personalized experience.

Absolutely Fabulous Tour - We had a fantastic time with Audrey touring the North End. We ate delicious pizza. We tasted fresh baked bread. We tasted fresh mozzarella with different types of balsamic vinegar. We tried an Italian sub on freshly baked bread and finished with a balsamic glaze that was unlike any Italian sub I’ve ever eaten. Ate delicious pasta at a charming Italian restaurant. And then there was the cannoli, which we were too full to eat- luckily Audrey had it boxed up for us to take home.
Yes, there was a lot of food.
But, what really made the tour enjoyable was Audrey’s knowledge of the neighborhood and the proprietors- the back stories on the generations of families that have run the various places we visited.
The North End is a really special place, steeped in history with fantastic food around every corner. Whether you are a local or just visiting, this tour will be a memorable experience.! I highly recommend it!

Great Day! Great Food! Great Experience! - This was such an outstanding day. Audrey was an incredible host and in 4 hours we traversed the North End with amazing tastings along the way.. I learned so much and I loved the ‘back stories’ that you only learn about from someone that has been there and understands the culture and history. The food was to die for, one mouth watering experience after the other, finishing with a toast with Limoncello. Everywhere we went , Audrey was greeted with open arms….she truly is North End royalty. All the merchants and restaurateurs were so welcoming and offered us their food, drink, time, and knowledge. When it came time to part ways, saying goodbye to Audrey was like saying goodbye to an old friend. If it is not on your bucket list, it needs to be and I am going to put it back in because just once isn’t enough! Thank you for such an amazing day!
