A great Boston Tour - It was a great tour!! Our guide Sean did an awesome job; I had the best lobster roll ever and was impressed by the pizza choice. I have done many walking food tours probably over 30 and this was one of the best.

Fun way to see Boston and taste of Boston - With Judy as our tour guide, we learned a little about Boston and the freedom trail as we tasted iconic Boston foods. Great choices from baked beans to original Boston Cream pie. The 3 hours went by really fast. We were full and had fun. Definitely would recommend!

Excellent Food Tour - What a great tour--the food was delicious, especially the lobster roll at Bell In Hand. We had to leave the tour early and Judy brought our Boston cream pies to us at the hotel--thank you, Judy!

Great food and history tour - This was a terrific tour. The food was delicious and the history of each dish gave us a unique insight into Boston history. Our tour guide -- Alyssa (sp?) -- was knowledgeable and every stop was fun. By the way, the food was ample and we were actually unexpectedly full at the end of the tour. We highly recommend this well-organized and informative tour.
