Q&A

Q: Is there a specific age limit for the North End food tour?

A: There's no strict age limit! Families with kids often enjoy it, but keep in mind some venues might not cater specifically for young ones. Just double-check with the guide about any dietary restrictions or preferences. It’s really a fun way for all ages to experience Boston's culinary scene!

Q: What should I wear for the tour? Is it mostly indoors or outdoors?

A: Great question! It’s a mix of both. I'd suggest wearing comfortable shoes since you'll be walking a lot. Layers are key since some places can be chilly, especially inside the markets. And you might want a light jacket if you’re going in the fall!

Q: Can I reschedule if I can’t make the original date I booked?

A: Yes, you can reschedule! Just reach out to the Boston Foodie Tours team at least 48 hours before your scheduled tour, and they’ll help you pick a new date. It’s super flexible, which is one of the things I loved about them!

Just did the North End food tour, and wow!

I recently went on the North End & Boston Market District Tour and it was amazing! We started off with cannolis (so good!) and then Sicilian pizza at a James Beard award-winning place. The highlight for me was definitely Mamma Connie’s meatballs. I just can’t get over how delicious everything was! This is such a great gift idea for anyone who loves food and history. Highly recommend!

Thinking of gifting the North End food tour for my parents!

I’m considering booking the North End food tour for my parents’ anniversary, but I’m not sure if it’s a good fit. They love Italian food but are in their late 60s. Anyone think they’ll be able to keep up with the walking? Also, is there a lot of standing involved?
