This Boston North End Food Tour with Local Flavors and Dishes lasts about two to three hours and is led on foot by a local guide. The tour begins at Boston Public Market, where participants sample artisan and ethnic foods from local vendors. From there, the group walks along Hanover Street, a historic route in Little Italy known for its Italian culture and landmarks such as St. Stephen’s Church and the Concert Hall. During the walk, the guide shares stories about Boston’s history, including the neighborhood’s role in the American Revolution. The tour includes more than six tastings of authentic local dishes and flavors, such as New England clam chowder, a lobster roll, wood-fired Italian pizza, a mini cannoli, a lemon slush, cheese with prosciutto, and a Secret Dish revealed only on the tour. A stop is made at a plaque on 256 Hanover Street commemorating the trial and execution of Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti. There is also a break at North Square Park, a historic site listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1961. The group sees one of downtown Boston’s oldest buildings, constructed in 1680 and one of the few remaining 17th-century urban dwellings in the United States. The tour includes all tastings listed but does not provide hotel pickup or drop-off. Participants should wear comfortable shoes as the tour involves a fair amount of walking. The itinerary and menu may change depending on availability and weather. Dietary requirements should be communicated in advance to allow for proper accommodations.
