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

Great story teller for history and humor. We were shown the smaller very authentic places to eat. Anthony was so funny and kept us glued to every word, insulting or not

Food was great! Tour was way too long. Our tour guide was a story teller which took up most of the time and we stood outside a lot for it, did not enjoy that at all. If you looking for a usual viator tour this is not for you.
We found the experience...

We found the experience to be fun and entertaining. We enjoyed the local history from a long time resident of the area. We enjoyed a variety of delicious food at seven local eateries.
The best tour guide ever!!
