Private North End Neighborhood Tour

Overview

At Boston Foodie Tours, we are proud to be a multi TripAdvisor Award winner, and one of Boston's original food tours.

Our North End Neighborhood Tour offers a view of Boston's Little Italy from the perspective of our founder, a native Bostonian, with topics ranging from best eats to history to crime to movies, and personal stories that you can't Google! We've included some surprises, too, including FOUR sites that aren't what they appear to be, and two hidden gems in a very unexpected place. And, if you're lucky, you might meet a neighbor or two!

Note: We regret that we cannot accommodate dietary restrictions at this time. If any questions, please message us prior to ticket purchase.

I have to give you the back story so you can understand how incredible this experience is. Back in the spring my fiancé then decided to book a surprise weekend getaway to Boston. We had three days and two nights of activities. One being a food tour through the North End. It was a miserable day , rain and cold. To make matters worse because I did not know what our activities for the day would be. I was dress completely inappropriately. Throughout the tour he would say we could leave and kept apologizing. I stuck it out and enjoyed every second of it , the food, history and most of all Audrey our tour guides enthusiasm. Now, It's October and we collaborate with Audrey to create a tour for our families as part as our wedding festivities. We hosted twenty of our family on this tour. Everyone loved it ! It was a perfect start to our wedding celebrations. Great food, great experience. Loved it will do it again- Just for that Italian sub and the prosciutto bread!

Well, we think that you're pretty amazing, too, and the perfect client, with only one, simple request: Must include Monica Mercato's Italian sub! We're glad that the rain didn't dampen your spirit the first time that you joined us, and that the sun shined brightly for you the second time. It was a pleasure for our team to take part in such a celebratory occasion. And the best part? Seeing the joy that each new food discovery brought to your loved ones. We look forward to creating more food memories with you in the future. Until then, wishing you many years of happiness, shared adventures, and lifelong food memories.

We created lifelong memories, too! What a pleasure it was to host you and your extended family on a private North End Neighborhood Tour. We're thrilled not only that you enjoyed the tour as much as you did, but also that we were able to introduce you to longtime neighbors with whom we've developed and nurtured relationships for nearly a decade. The firsthand, oral histories that each shared, from JFK to Rose Kennedy to Frank Sinatra, simply can't be Googled. We hope that we'll have an opportunity to introduce you to more of Boston's best eats in the future, and to more of Boston Foodie Tours' partners and friends, who make our tours both delicious and unique!

What an amazing time we had with Audrey!! First, I want to say how responsive she was to all of my emails and she was so flexible with our start time! We booked a private tour and it was so worth it. Audrey tailored our tour to our request. We booked the North End tour, but we also went to the Boston Public Market. Audrey was so engaging, knowledgeable and fun! Her passion for food and the local businesses was undeniable, she truly loves Boston! She was the perfect hostess, she introduced us to the most memorable people and food. Every stop was delish and very well thought out. We got to taste a little bit of everything, from Boston’s best seafood, to the most amazing Italian and specialty food artisans. I recommend this tour to both locals and tourists, there is so much depth in her tour, you will not be disappointed! Audrey also recommended a list of other places for us to try on our own and we did. We set out for our own “Feeding Trail” and the food was just as amazing as the tour. We have a couple more stops to try before we leave and we can’t wait! Thank you Audrey, you made our visit to Boston so incredibly special!!!

And the BEST guests EVER! What a pleasure it was to host you, your husband, and friends on a private relaunch of our Boston Public Market & North End Tour. We're thrilled that you enjoyed the tour and the tastings, and couldn't be more appreciative of such a thoughtful, enthusiastic review. If you return to Boston in the future, we promise to have more best eats a'waitin'!
