Boston North End Italian Food Tour: Pizza, Pasta & Pastry
Overview
Discover why Boston's North End is one of America's most beloved food neighborhoods on your Pizza, Pasta and Pastry Tour. Stroll charming cobblestone streets while enjoying generous tastings of authentic, award-winning Neapolitan pizza, handmade pasta, and classic cannoli from beloved local, family-owned eateries. Come hungry, leave full. Your expert local guide will share the fascinating stories behind Boston's Italian immigrants, the neighborhood's rich history, architecture, culinary traditions, and the chefs, families, and entrepreneurs who continue to shape its vibrant food scene.
