When we arrived the guide said we weren't in her group. I said Cozymeal and she did not know what that was nor did not have our names. Since she was "missing" 2 people for her group she said we can join the tour until she connected with her manager. No fault of the tour guide, but frustrating that Cozymeal did not provide information for the local Boston food tour group. Also, our tour guide was very nice but one stop we are 3 food items. I was hoping we could explore more of Boston and try more restaurants and more hidden gems. So while we are 6 different types of foods we one did 3 officially stops.

We had the best moment at our Food Tour of BostonвЂ™s North End. Our guide was Stuart and he was wonderful! He was really informed of Boston history and the various food/restaurants in Boston. The meal was also excellent! strongly suggested!

Being a native of the Boston region, I anticipated the tour to be more touristy and focus on the major attractions. Rather, some amazing food from places I didn't even knew existed is what I got! Our tour guide, Leah, was a very knowledgeable, who has a wealth of important tidbots about the history of Boston and the many different places we stopped for food! From tourists to locals, I highly recommend everyone, take this tour!!!

In every way Shannon was outstanding! Our group had such a great time because of her! She was extremely knowledgeable about the food, history, and culture! This was by far one of the absolute best, that's coming from someone who had been on 30+ food tours all around the world! Our tour guide is personable and made sure everyone socializes, and it makes such a big difference.. it really makes the experience better. I never felt left out and I was a solo traveler! All the food offerings were great! THIS IS A MUST DO TOUR! ESPECIALLY WITH SHANNON IN BOSTON! BOOK NOW!

We, my husband and I, really loved the secret food tour in Boston. By the time it's over, we are so full, and every place had something delectable to sample! Our tour guide Gabriel (Gabe) was fantastic! The whole time Gabe was amazing, friendly, funny, and interested in history! I definitely recommend this tour, and Gabe as a tour guide!

It was a fantastic experience, the Food Tour in Boston led by Gabriel, which a friend and I did. We got an amazing, fascinating, and funny tidbits not only about the food we were eating and how it tied to history and Boston, but also about Boston history in general! We get a TON of food for this type of tour as well! We had a great time with Gabe who was super knowledgeable and hilarious. I would highly recommend this to everyone.

I wanted to try some good food while I was in Boston, so I chose to take a guided food tour, which was both enjoyable and educational. Caleb, our guide, is very knowledgeable about Boston and shared many interesting facts about the city, its history, and notable locals. I got a taste of Boston thanks to the delicious and amazing food. I wholeheartedly recommend this tour.

I had a blast with my friend! We met several of the small company owners, and all of the food was excellent. We learned a lot about Boston in addition to the history of the restaurants. This was a wonderful way to spend the day for me because I was a first-time tourist in Boston and a foodie.

The North End Tour comes highly recommended! For our little party, Gabriel was the most effective tour guide. While we were munching our way from Haymarket to the North End, he provided us with some fascinating historical facts. The cuisine was excellent. It had excellent value. Simply a beautiful experience all around.

The group was small, and Shannon, our guide, gave information that catered to all of our interests. I made the decision to sign up for this secret cuisine walking tour in Boston, and I left feeling extremely satisfied and delighted. My main interests were historical anecdotes, getting around Boston, and finding more great restaurants and bars. Shannon, many thanks!

We participated in the Boston secret food tour. Our tour leader was Stuart. My husband and I had a terrific day exploring Boston's streets, eating delicious food, and learning about the city's culinary heritage. Stuart was a fantastic tour guide, and we had a great day. Anyone who appreciates trying out the regional cuisine should do this, in my opinion.
