★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 185 reviews · from $99

North End food and Freedom Trail history on a 5-hour small-group walk, with Italian bites, churches, and Boston Public Garden calm for $99.

“Chanta was an amazing guide and took us all over the North End of Boston, in search of wonderful food treats. These were full sized, not samples, of the food from this area. Along the way, he engaged us with stories about his hometown, Boston, so he knows what he is talking about. After the food tour, we continued with the Freedom Trail history of Boston, and it was exceptional as well. He took us into places we may have skipped over and he took us to places we asked about even if they were a bit out of the way. Nothing was too much for him to do. Small…”

North End & Boston Market District Tour with Local Guide

9.North End & Boston Market District Tour with Local Guide

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 176 reviews · 3 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $125

A small-group North End and Market District food walk with local stories, included tastings, and big-name stops like Union Oyster House chowder.

“We have been on a lot of food tours in multiple countries. This was the best. Audrey was excellent and we had her undivided attention, so we were lucky. North End's Hanover Street is the foodie capital of Boston. Hanover Street is very entrepreneurial—no chains. Extra bonus chats with owners and family members that were not on the tour (sometimes the timing works), especially getting a look/see at Frank DePasquale's newest, Umbria. DePasquale is the premier restauranteur in Boston with 12 distinct eateries.. We had dined at a DePasquale institution, Bricco, the previous night. Excellent. Five tastings in all, and all tasty. Everybody knows Audrey. Bravo.”
