Great food and history tour - This was a terrific tour. The food was delicious and the history of each dish gave us a unique insight into Boston history. Our tour guide -- Alyssa (sp?) -- was knowledgeable and every stop was fun. By the way, the food was ample and we were actually unexpectedly full at the end of the tour. We highly recommend this well-organized and informative tour.

great intro to the area - Great way to start out our weekend in Boston! The tour introduced us to the downtown area (& some of its food-related history) & to some of the classic foods of the area. Who knew that baked beans & brown bread (bread originally from a can) could be so tasty! & the delicious clam chowder & lobster roll hit the spot. We finished the tour with Boston cream pie at Omni Parker House, which was the best Boston cream pie I've ever had.

Best Food Tour - We do food tours whenever we travel to new cities...great way to be introduced to the local cuisine and history.
Our group loved the Boston Baked Beans and brown bread along with the history behind this Boston tradition. The lobster roll and clam chowder were among the best we had during our stay. The stops were fun and interesting with so much history attached. Everyone agreed the Boston Cream Pie was the best ever....and in such a beautiful grand hotel!
Alyssa and Maggie, thank you for a wonderful day!
