Boston: North End Guided Food Tour & Market Visit
Visit local markets, historic restaurants, and quaint eateries as you eat your way from Boston’s historic downtown to the charming North End.

There's no better—or more delicious!—way to get a taste of New England's culinary culture.

What's included in Boston: North End Guided Food Tour & Market Visit
(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Boston Public Market
Start your morning at the Boston Public Market and taste the New England difference in one of the region's most important agricultural products: apples! Apple cider donuts await you to fuel the rest of your explorations. If that wasn’t enough, you'll taste a bit of history at a second market stall in the form of a surprising 17th-century snack with English roots
Freedom Trail
Follow in the footsteps of the revolutionaries as you walk the historic Freedom Trail, where Boston’s history unfolds alongside the birth of America. And don’t worry...there’s more food coming your way!
There's no better place to continue your Boston history lesson than at an iconic restaurant that hasn't closed its doors since 1826. This makes it not only the oldest restaurant in Boston, but the oldest one with continuous service in the entire United States! You'll sit in the very booth that was reserved for the 35th president, John F. Kennedy, to taste creamy clam chowder and another coastal classic: oysters!
