An amazing time - I've lived in Boston most of my life and yet I know very little about it. My cousin was visiting from Florida for the weekend and I decided to book a couple of tours for her enjoyment because I'm not really the type to venture out. To my surprise, I loved every second of it. The weekend turned out to be sunny and a perfect day to stroll around the neighbor and especially tasting different dishes I would have never attempted if it wasn't for this tour. Our tour guide was amazing. It was a lovely experience. I am looking forward to do tours real soon.

We came, we saw, we ate, we learned. - Despite starting and ending the tour in a downpour, we had a really fantastic time! My partner and I are both pescetarians and although there we no fish options available, all stops accommodated us as vegetarians without making us feel like we were missing out on something amazing. We learned not only about the food we were eating, but about the restaurants, the people behind the restaurants, the neighborhood, and the architecture of the area. Our guides and hosts, Katie Barron and Natalie Pena, were both interactive, energetic, knowledgeable, and above all passionate about what they do and eat!! The portions are "just a taste," but after 6 stops you leave with a satisfied belly and full brain. Thanks again for a great afternoon!

Be sure to read the exactly what will be included. - Our guide Katie was great. Learned lots about South Boston. I’m disappointed because I thought we would be having traditional Bostonian foods like brown bread and beans, Boston Cream Pie, etc. so clearly I picked the wrong tour. That’s why I didn’t give you a 5.
