Loving Boston - We definitely learned a great deal about Boston. Martin was very nice and my sister and I liked him instantly. We fell in love with Boston and everything we saw on the tour and of course the food.

Fun food tour - Great guide and plentiful seafood! Honestly there wasn’t much walking but there was lots of eating - and the guide was sarcastic and funny and quizzed us on American history

Great personal tour with Lee! - Great food, great snippets of area history that you do not find in history books. Wonderful neighborhood information, too. Enjoyed it very much. Great way to see the area close up and eat your way from point to point.

Food makes it worth it! - The food and tour itself were awesome, definitely worth it! 4 stars because we didn't care for our tour guide's style. He never introduced himself, and was super casual/borderline unprofessional. He could have shared a little more history rather than just chit chat. He also walked very fast (he was tall, we are short) and wasn't aware of how far behind we got at times. You would think with a group of only 8 people total he'd realize half were still on the other side of the street.

Worth it! - The food and walk was wonderful! Little to no gluten/ gluten-free friendly tour. Our tour guide provided some history during the tour. Didn't give 5 stars because our tour guide was so-so. He didn't introduce himself or ask if anyone had restrictions, he walked too fast, and he was very casual/borderline unprofessional. He did tip very well at the restaurants which was good to know. The restaurant managers seemed familiar and friendly with him. Overall a great tour itself, just not excellent because of the guide's style.
