What To Expect

Christopher Columbus Waterfront Park

Your North End experience begins at the lifeblood of Boston, the Boston Harbor. Walk through a scenic waterfront park, with views of the harbor, East Boston and the historic wharfs lining Atlantic Ave. We’ll make our way to the heart of the North End, with views of some of the most historic sites and properties in the neighborhood, some dating back to the late 1600s and early 1700s.

North End

Delicious food is never far away in the North End. Your guide will introduce you to a small, hidden Italian bakery serving up fresh bread daily. Break bread with your fellow travelers and let the carbs give you the energy to continue your adventure! A proper Italian salumeria is next, and you’ll have a chance to enjoy Italian meats and cheeses at their finest and freshest. Next up, we’ll take in the energy of the North End’s busiest corridor, Hanover Street, where it’s time for a mid-tour break with your guide at a traditional Italian café. Here, if you like, you can purchase and enjoy your choice of a classic cappuccino, espresso or tea or just take a minute off your feet.

Old North Church & Historic Site

As you let the caffeine kick in, your guide goes back in time into North End history. Hear stories about some of the most influential events that happened in Boston, including Paul Revere’s Midnight Ride. We make our way to the Old North Church, where we may get to step inside the hallowed walls.

Mixed history of Boston while walking between food tour stops. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable.

Megan was an outstanding tour guide and had excellent choices for the food and historic sites we saw. She kept a great pace with our tour group and took us to several restaurants and bakeries that blended great food and history in a seamless way. I would recommend Megan 10 times out of 10.

Bob was the most amazing tour guide I’ve ever had. He didn’t give you the surface layer, he gave you the stories you’ve never heard. His knowledge and excitement about everything Boston is what made this tour truly special. We went on a tour in Salem yesterday, and I wish I could’ve taken Bob with me, because now every other tour seems cheap, and boring. If you want to eat good food, laugh, and learn everything you wanted to know about Boston, this is the tour to take. Idk if you can request Bob, but if you can, DO IT! He has been the highlight of our trip. I had to rush off to make a dinner reservation and wasn’t able to tip him! If someone can get in contact with me about how to show this man the gratitude he deserves please let me know!
