HI, my name is Anthony and yes – I am Italian, born and raised in Boston’s North End. Out of the many food tours about 20 of them, with no exaggeration there are only 2 of us tour guides that were born and raised here .On this 3-hour guided walking tour we’ll visit historic sites, hidden gems, unique neighborhood shops, local hangouts all while tasting some of the most delicious Italian food anywhere! I will take you to the local spots that tourist don't even know they exist.

But as the title suggests this is not your typical North End Food Tour and thank God for that. Being Boston’s “Politically Incorrect” North End Food tour , you will get the information about Little Italy with no BS from a true local who was born and raised here, not from some transplant who isn’t even Italian that read some stuff in a book and wants to tell you about it.

What To Expect

North End

Boston’s “North End” aka “Little Italy” is a pocket-sized Italian neighborhood teeming with history and charm. Among the narrow streets, hidden alleyways and park benches you will find The Paul Revere House, Copp’s Hill and The Old North Church. In the next step you are standing alongside Boston’s organized crime headquarters. Absorbing the history and folklore of the North End cannot be done properly without coupling it with the culinary lining of the neighborhood. As home to over eighty restaurants and countless wine shops, bakeries, and Italian salumerias (a.k.a Italian delis) it is safe to say you won’t leave hungry! On this 3-hour guided walking tour we’ll visit historic sites, hidden gems, unique neighborhood shops, local hangouts all while tasting some of the most delicious Italian food anywhere! Enjoy the history,outrageous stories, and folklore of the North End neighborhood through the eyes of your Politically Incorrect born and raised VERY FUNNY local tour guide Anthony

We enjoyed this tour that included history of Little Italy while trying 3 entrees and 3 desserts. Our favorite was the Italian sandwich. I would not take a child or someone sensitive to vulgar language.
Bada bing!

This experience lived up to the title. Guide was “local” in a good way with detailed knowledge of the area. Food was fantastic - recommend not eating anything for a few hours before. The Italian sub and the desserts were our favorites. Definitely recommend

Our tour guide, Anthony, was sharp and a funny. When signing up I expected laughs and good food, but I didn't realize how history would be shared about the North End! It was interesting to learn about the area and get the perspective from someone who's grown up in the area.
