And we fulfilled your wish: snow! Thank you and your lovely daughter for joining us on our North End & Boston Public Market Tour, and for including Boston Foodie Tours in your brief U.S. getaway. You brought sunshine, light, and laughter to a snow-filled day. We hope that our Celtics serve you a parting win, and that Ristorante Limoncello's unforgettable Rosette Pasta inspires a return trip to Boston.

Our 12 year old granddaughter toured with us and enjoyed it as much as we did. Audrey did a great job pulling together the food and the culture of the North End. No need for lunch or dinner! Definitely a gluten fest! Food was great and we never would have found the many hidden gems that we got to experience. We went back the next day to some recommendations that we didn't get to during the tour. Audrey is really connected in the community and learning a lot of the background that she dished out was as exciting. It was definitely a high light of our trip.

Oh, what a delight it was to host you, your husband, and your lovely teenage granddaughter on our North End Neighborhood Tour, proving, once again, that food tours are multi-generational activities that all can enjoy. While we're pleased that you experienced several favorite moments both during and post-tour, this tour guide experienced one, too: Your granddaughter thoughtfully asking me to look her way at the tour's end while she gestured "delicious". How sweet was that? Job well done, grandmother, and we were happy to help.

We had a wonderful experience with Audrey on our foodie tour. She was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and fun as our guide. Everything on the itinerary was well thought out and thoroughly enjoyed. The food tour was the highlight of our trip and something I’d recommend to anyone visiting Boston.

When guests tell us that they're celebrating a birthday, we get, well, a little excited. Thanks for choosing Boston Foodie Tours' North End & Boston Public Market Tour to celebrate the afternoon portion of your son's memorable 18th birthday. We're thrilled to learn that we and our talented partners won over three wonderful young men, as well as their lovely moms, and hope that each one of you felt like it was your birthday, too!
