Excellent!! - We had such a great time on the Little Italy North End food tour! Mick truly knew the neighborhood intimately and was able to take us to the best spots! He was engaging and had entertaining and historical stories along the way.

Absolutely loved it! - Along with the north end tour my fiance and I also did the true crime tour the night before. Tony was just amazing, he told dad jokes, had a great attitude, was very knowledgeable, and just flat out fun to hang out with! He includes everyone in the group and through the tour talks to everyone which is appreciated being from out of town. If I ever come back to Boston with friends I will definitely book these tours again!!!

Fantastic tour of a fantastic place by a fantastic guide - Tony did a fabulous job with our tour - family of 6 with 4 adult children (17-22). Our resident foodie was over the moon. Tony did a great job showing us some fantastic food stops and well as weaving in history and culture of the North End. He kept the pace just right so we moved along without feeling rushed. He was super easy to hear even on the crowded streets without having to yell. Loved it and would definitely recommend. My only request is that Tony would post the entire Paul Revere song to YouTube - Gen Xers would love it. Rock on Tony!

A Tasty Trip to the Past - I had the great pleasure of being a part of Mick's tour group and got so much more from it than I was hoping for. While the tour is advertised as a simple food tour through North End, I would strongly recommend it to any lover of history. Our whole group was enthralled by the colorful stories Mick told us about the area's past; both about the rich histories of its famous landmarks as well as lesser known accounts that you would have a hard time finding anywhere else. Just make sure you bring enough cash with you, since most of the establishments along the tour are cash-only.

Little Italy - As Temps. dropped to an historic low, we requested a refund due to the hazards of falling on the walk during our tour of Boston one day earlier. A refund was denied. Not happy!!
