We had a great time on this tour! The guide, Pat, took us to great places never seen before and along the way relayed interesting history and the flavor of the North. The combination of special drinks (the Moscow Mule was our favorite) at different cool bars and restaurants, a delicious blind Cannoli taste test, tasty gelato and Lulu's scrumptious cupcakes were highlights to a great day in the city! This tour is fantastic and absolutely worth the experience!

This tour was a great experience! Pat who was our tour guide was so knowledgable about the history of the North End as well as the restaurants and of course the cocktails and dessert! We tried some amazing cocktails from various restaurants and different desserts (gelato, cannolis, and cupcakes!) All of it was delicious and to top it all off we had a blind taste test to see who has the best cannoli in the North End! Being from this area I still learned so much about the city I never knew before so this is a great tour for not only tourists but locals who want to explore the North End! This tour was filled with just the right amount of humor, fun, history, drinks and the best part DESSERT!

Great stops on this tour of the North End, with a variety of desserts and drinks. Learned a lot about Boston's history from our host. A must for anyone visiting Boston!
