1) Please tell us a little about the history of ‘Boston Pizza Tours’ and how it got started?

 The idea for Boston Pizza Tours started in 2010 after a friend of mine had returned from a recent vacation.  My friend is a world traveler and a passionate foodie, and she could not stop talking about a great food tour that she had taken in NYC.  I was living in the North End at the time which is not only Boston’s oldest neighborhood, but home to some of the city’s very best restaurants & Pizzerias.  Being a history buff & Pizza lover myself I figured maybe I wasn’t the only person who might enjoy walking Boston’s neighborhoods, seeing the sights, learning the history, and of course tasting the delicious Pizza!  We started operating tours in 2011 and have enjoyed every single bite!!

2) What is the best part of your Job?
