Hi, I’m Bobby. Welcome to My Neighborhood.

I am the owner and tour guide of the North End Boston Food Tour. I’ve called this neighborhood home since the day I was born. My family has lived, cooked, and celebrated on these streets since 1897. When you join me, you aren’t just taking a tour, you’re stepping into the stories and flavors that shaped my life in this one-square-mile community.

A Walk Through History, Culture, and Real Italian Food

Together, we’ll explore parts of the North End that most visitors never discover. We’ll wander side streets where families gathered for generations, visit longstanding shops that helped define Little Italy, and stop at the bakeries, delis, and salumerias that have served locals for decades.

Along the way, I’ll share memories from growing up here — neighborhood traditions, the people who influenced me, and the moments that show why this community is unlike anywhere else. These stories are personal, unscripted, and a big part of what makes this experience special.

Every stop has meaning. Every shopkeeper we meet is someone I know. That connection is what brings the tour to life.

What You’ll See, Taste, and Experience

On my three-hour journey through the North End, you’ll sample top-quality Italian foods and step inside some of the neighborhood’s most beloved institutions. I take you to family-run spots that have shaped Boston’s Little Italy for generations, from world-renowned bakeries to historic shops known for their wines, liqueurs, and old-world traditions.

Every tasting is included in your ticket, and every stop reflects the real North End the way locals experience it.

Come hungry and ready to explore.

What We’ll Do Together

Throughout the tour, we will:
• Walk the cobblestone streets that helped shape Boston’s identity
• Step back in time to understand the first Italian immigrants
• Visit century-old storefronts and longtime family businesses
• Talk with real locals and experience real Italian hospitality
• Explore Hanover and Salem Streets — the heart of The North End
• Experience the smells, tastes, and stories that define this neighborhood

My goal is simple: to make you feel like a local. There are no tourist traps here, only authentic experiences.
