Reviews
This was a great tour that not only included local charm, great Italian eats, insider tips on how to experience Boston, but also a great history lesson you don't always read in the books.
Would definitely recommend this night tour to everyone. Our driver, Carl, was very knowledgeable and entertaining. Our 7 year olds loved the tour a lot and consider it the best part of their Washington DC trip. I can see it being a bit hard to enjoy it fully when the weather doesn't cooperate but we had some great weather so we were really lucky.
We enjoyed our guide Bob and trainee Maddie. Our group was small, including us "locals" from Vermont, two world travelers from Minnesota, and a couple from Ireland. Rain dampened our walk and our clothes, yet we still enjoyed the learning, the history, the food and the company. Bob was very knowledgeable and informative and friendly. We highly recommend him and the North End Foodie Tour!

Coffee tour and more
Tot was a great tour guide and incredibly knowledgeable about all stages of coffee production. We toured 3 very different coffee establishments that really took us outside of my everyday coffee experiences. He also had many restaurant tips and local knowledge of Cap Hill and surrounding areas. His enthusiasm for coffee was very evident. What a great way to start our trip to Seattle.
Great tour
Tod was really knowledgeable and great! I learned so much about the community and coffee!
