It’s not just pizza, it’s history and authenticity Boston in tone. In short this tour is wicked pissah
Fabulous walking tour! Just enough of a history lesson and pizza was amazing! Scotty was a great guide!!!
Knowledgeable and friendly guide. Enjoyed the pizza and learning more about Boston history. A fun experience!
We had a great time on the Freedom Trail Pizza Tour! The three pizza slices were all delicious and offered a fun variety, and the tour itself was a perfect mix of Boston history and great food. Margot was an excellent host—knowledgeable, engaging, and made the whole experience enjoyable. We’d definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Boston!
This was one of the best tours we’ve ever taken! Dan was funny, informative, and made the entire experience so enjoyable. The pizza was delicious, and the meeting instructions were clear and easy to follow. Five stars all the way - this is a must-do when visiting Boston!
All 3 Pizza places were awesome. We would go back to any one of them. Tour guide was excellent and really gave us lots of Boston history
Never got a refund even though they cancelled. Texted them multiple times. Go with a more honest tour company.
Hi Carmela - you have indeed been REFUNDED IN FULL for the canceled tour. You texted us multiple times (at least that much is true) and we always texted you right back. Next time, simply check your Viator app for a refund confirmation before butchering a small business with nasty reviews. Have a lovely day.
Amazing pizza along with interesting Boston history. Scotty kept the tour moving and kept us laughing.
We had a great time on the pizza tour in the North End. Big Al was entertaining and passionate about history and pizza. We’re still referencing some of his stories about Paul Revere and the colonists waiting for the British on Bunker Hill. The pizza was also excellent. Reginas was our favorite. The cannoli at Modern Pastry was the perfect end to the tour.
Although this is a rather lengthy walking tour, it is very easy to do. I am a senior citizen with a neurological condition that affects my ability to walk and I could still easily complete the tour. We stopped at many historic sites and our tour guide, Scotty, was very knowledgeable about each place. The walking pace was also very comfortable. And the pizza was delicious!
