The food selections were very tasty! Our guide shared a bit of history about the New England area. We had the opportunity to tase pizza, an Italian sandwich, capuccino and the best cannoli ever!

This tour was one of the best experiences I have had while on my vacation in Boston. Our guide, Bob, was so knowledgeable and entertaining. He shared historical information in such an interesting and engaging manner. Some of the places we visited were "hidden gems", giving us the opportunity to skip the typical tourist traps and enjoy local favorites. All of the food we sampled was delicious, and I greatly appreciate that my vegetarian diet was able to be accommodated. We loved every minute of this tour! Highly recommend.
