My Favorite Tour Yet of Boston’s Historic North End
And the Puleo family (extended) had a blast! Many of you know that I conduct tours of Boston’s North End and really enjoy doing them – but my favorite tour ever took place in June 2026 when the Puleo family gathered for a tour, great food, and an overall amazing experience.
Photos below show us gathered at the historic Copps Hill Cemetery, at the grave of colonist Daniel Malcolm, who was such a thorn in the side of the British that the Redcoats took target practice on his gravestone (note the bullet holes); and the fabulous (and historic in its own right) Cantina Italiana restaurant on Hanover Street, which is where my late parents had their first date in 1951! A special shoutout to our fantastic waiter, Orazio, who did the work of ten people and made us feel warm and welcome! Kate and I agreed that the only thing better than walking around and eating in the North End is to do so with the people you love the most!!
