Sean was amazing, we really enjoyed ourselves. Je had a lot of great facts about the area and the food! Even offered additional recommendations in the area. And it's the best lobster roll I've ever had! Five stars!!!

Tour was very informative and food was delicious. I would recommend the tour and the food portions were enough to fill you up as a lunch serving

We had an absolutely fantastic experience on our North End food tour with Sean as our guide! From start to finish, he was knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely passionate about the neighborhood’s history and its incredible food scene. Sean struck the perfect balance between fun storytelling and interesting facts, making every stop feel special. He made sure everyone felt included, answered all our questions with enthusiasm, and gave great recommendations we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. The food was delicious, the pace was perfect, and Sean’s personality really brought the whole tour to life. If you’re visiting Boston—or even if you’re local—this tour with Sean is a must. Highly recommend! 🍝🍕🍨
