This is a great tour of the North End. Our guide, Larry was very knowledgeable and we really enjoyed him. To call it a goodie tour is a huge stretch though. The food was really lacking and consisted of a piece of bread, a dessert, a piece of a sandwich and a slice of pizza. All common things you can find almost anywhere. We have done many food tours in other cities and they are usually a LOT more food and discussions about the food. Most of these stops were grab and go. Great tour, just not necessarily a great food tour. The tour was two hours which was also great for us!
