This is a child-friendly tour. Children under the age of 6 are permitted to join this tour free of charge.
This tour can accommodate vegetarian, vegans, and gluten free options. Please notify us in advance at least 24 h before the tour start time if you have any dietary requests.. Please note that while we do our best to accommodate these needs, substitutions may not be identical to the original menu items.
This tour is environmentally friendly because unlike many of the tour companies in Boston, you walk as opposed to using buses or other vehicles.
In the morning when you are in the famous North End, all of the food stops are 100% owned and run by locals, ensuring that local people benefit from tourism to their city. So any inclusions on the tour and additional purchases you make will directly benefit the local community.
You also stop at one of the world-famous churches which is as much a part of Boston's (and America's) history as you can get. The Old North Church is a non-profit organization that works hard to educate school children and adults on American history and colonial life. By paying an entrance fee, you are helping to maintain the church and their work.
We reserve the right to change both the route and places visited within the tour. Food inclusions are subject to change, dependent on availability on the day.
Suitable for all ages and fitness levels, but please note that this tour covers 8 km (5 miles) of walking.
