Elizabeth is the BEST. - Elizabeth was the MOST amazing tour guide I think I have ever had. I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone take so much pride in the place they live and just have so much love for her community and the restaurants in it. From all of the little holes of the best place to get coffee beans all the way to the best place to get chowder she is on top of it and doesn’t hesitate to let you in on the secrets. She found out it was my birthday and made it so special. Frankly I think she would have done just as good a job even if it wasn’t my birthday. If you are thinking of booking it do it. (She also doubles as an amazing photographer for people who forget to take photos of themselves for memories.)

Boston Northend Review - What a pleasant history and tour. We learned so much about Boston , not just the North End . Sean was very knowledgeable of all of the history of Boston. He kept my young kids entertained something which is difficult to do. Would highly recommend .

Foodies in Boston - We always have a food tour in every city break. Boston was no exception and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Sean our guide was very informative about the city’s history and took us to some local hideaway places to sample clam chowder, pizza annd the famous Boston cream pie. An extra treat was a local community food market which we revisited on another day to buy gifts to take home. We also took his recommendation for a lunch visit the following day to the oldest restaurant in Boston…the Union Oyster which was amazing.
