Live Like a Local Tours
Live Like A Local Tours brings you out of downtown Boston and into the city's neighborhoods where you'll be exposed to foods from different cultures. Guests will drink craft beer from small neighborhood microbreweries and get a spirit tasting from a local distillery.
Participate in a series of walking #foodtours in each area to get outside and explore these neighborhoods on foot in small groups. Explore these neighborhoods from a local's perspective. Come with us and Live Like A Local!
