This tour was excellent! Pat did a wonderful job making everyone feel welcome. He was incredibly organized, checking in to ensure we knew where to meet and what to expect. The drinks and treats were delicious. He was very knowledgeable regarding all things in the North End and added a great mix of humor. I'd highly recommend this tour!

Awesome fun tour!

Meredith_P, Aug 2022

Loved this tour! So much fun! Pat the tour guide was funny, knowledgeable and very intent on making sure everyone was fully satisfied! Enjoyed getting to know the other couples on the tour and especially enjoyed learning all about Little Italy! This was one of the best parts of our visit to Boston, and I highly recommend!

Don’t miss this!

Vickie_C, Jul 2022

Pat was amazing! He took us to great locations. The cocktails were full size and all the bartenders made our group feel welcome! The deserts were delicious! One of the most fun adventures we have taken so far.

Great afternoon activity with friends

Amanda_S, Jun 2022

This tour doesn't skimp on the cocktails OR cannolis! Pat made the tour engaging and fun, giving you context of the neighborhood, taking you to some known and lesser known spots to round out your Boston visit. Would go again!

Awesome!

Highly recommend! The cocktail’s and desserts were great and we found a few spots we wouldn’t have on our own. We will definitely be back.

Great North End Tour

Bethany_B, Nov 2021

Pat was a great tour guide, in a group of 12 we were able to hear him speak whether you were in the front of the group or the back. He is very accommodating should you not like the drinks offered (Espresso, Almond Joy, Lemon Drop Martini’s). We don’t drink coffee and didn’t love the creamy drinks, but Pat offered a replacement, which he didn’t have to do! Pat also offered restaurant recommendations and places to go, hidden gems if like, while we visit Boston.

Must do while in Boston !!

Kim_S, Oct 2021

This experience was great !! Pat took us to cool bars with great drinks and showed us some great historical stops and of course some great desserts !! Must do while in Boston !! Great way to start your evening !!

Exceeded all expectations

Sean_B, Oct 2021

We’re from Boston and I thought this would still be a cool thing to check out. We’d probably go to all the places we normally do, but hey it’ll still be fun. We found so many new places we didn’t even know existed and Pat was a fantastic guide. If you get the chance to go, GO!

So much fun!

Debbie_J, Sep 2021

Sarah was absolutely wonderful and so personable. Loved her!! Would ask for her again and would do this tour again next trip.

North End Experience

Gail_W, Nov 2020

We had a great experience. Even though we’ve been to the North End a lot during our lives we learned a ton and found new spots. Guys had a lot of knowledge and great sense of humor. Made for a fun experience for all.

Tons of fun in the North End!

Cheryce_G, Oct 2020

Tons of fun with tasty drinks and cannoli's. Lots of history and lots of laughs. Deuce (Pat #2) was our guide and he was awesome.

Excellent take with Cocktails & Cannolis

A_R, Mar 2020

Our group had the luck & pleasure of the expertise of lovely, entertaining & intelligent Gabrielle(a). She was witty & truly a great tour guide. This tour gives you an unexpected informative tour with features of the Northend few of us probably know. It was a marvelous take and thats all I'm going to say.

Food Tour of Boston's North Italy

RENEE_G, Aug 2019

FANTASTIC! Exceeded expectations! Pat is full of information and made the tour so fun! You cannot go wrong with this one!

Really Great Tour!

BostonianGirl99, May 2019

This Tour was so much fun! I am actually a local and my husband and I decided to bring some friends from out of town to experience the North End. It was great skipping all of the lines we would usually have to wait on to try the desserts and the guides were great! It was a good balance of walking and eating as well, I would definitely recommend this tour!
