Donut Delights Below Boston’s Streets

Embark on your adventure by immersing yourself in the essence of Boston at the picturesque Boston Harbor. Traverse a scenic waterfront park offering stunning views of the harbor, East Boston, and the historic wharfs along Atlantic Ave.

Proceed to the heart of the North End, where you’ll marvel at the views of some of the most historic sites and properties dating back to the late 1600s and early 1700s. Your taste buds will come alive at a hidden Italian bakery as you savor fresh bread and build camaraderie with fellow travelers. Energized by carbs, continue your journey to a traditional Italian salumeria, where a delightful selection of meats and cheeses awaits.

Immerse yourself in the vibrant energy of Hanover Street, the North End’s bustling corridor. This intriguing street began as a footpath used by Native Americans heading toward the water. Then, over the years, it turned into Little Italy with the arrival of Italian immigrants in the early 1900s. While here, take a mid-tour break at a classic Italian cafe with your guide, indulging in a choice of a classic cappuccino, espresso, or tea.

As the caffeine takes effect, delve into North End history, listening to captivating stories of influential events in Boston, including Paul Revere’s famous midnight ride. Visit the iconic 18th century Old North Church, the oldest standing church in the city and where North Enders still gather, and explore the hallowed walls renowned for their role in the Revolution.

Post-church, delve deeper into the local side of the North End, savoring a neighborhood-favorite pizza and relishing endless stories. Conclude your culinary journey with delectable samples of the finest Italian pastries along the charming backstreets of this flavorful neighborhood.
