Just did the North End Walking Tour and OMG!

I went on the North End 'Little Italy' Walking Tour last weekend and it was incredible! Our guide was super knowledgeable and took us to some amazing spots. We tried cannolis from both Modern and Mike's, and honestly, I think Modern might've won for me. The pizza was fresh and delicious, too! If you love food and history, this is a must-do when in Boston.

Thinking of gifting the North End Tour!

I’m considering buying this North End Walking Tour for my foodie friend’s birthday. She loves Italian food but has been to Boston a ton. Think she’d enjoy it? How much food do you actually get during the tour? Can I join her as a plus one?
