5 of us on vacation in Maine....last day before our flight out of Boston! Bob was knowledgeable, funny and kept everyone moving right through the North End. The food was unbelievable! Bob took us places we would have never heard about without him! I highly encourage anyone visiting the city to partake in this adventure, especially if you love authentic food you can never find on your own.... You will leave pleasantly full with fod memories of Boston and of Bob!!!!!!
