Lancaster History and Craft Beer Walk

Overview

Content rich and carefully researched, you will get an insider's pass to the past, with stories and context that bring the city alive and guarantee an experience unavailable anywhere else. We’ll explore the rich and fascinating history of our beautiful city and learn the out-sized roll our small city played in the birth and growth of America as you stroll through charming streets and alleys and begin to understand the building blocks that take us to the present day.
Sound great? Well there is still much more.
During our old city history walk, we will whet our whistle at some of Lancaster’s finest craft beer establishments – and the history isn’t over. You will learn how much of our colorful past is tied to beer. From the Revolutionary War to 19th century Lager Breweries to amazing tales of prohibition ingenuity, the beer flowing through the taps comes from the present day but reaches back across the last two centuries - and it's delicious!

Great tour. We enjoyed seeing the preserved excavation area inside the Marriott, walking through a section of old town and hearing about the history of Lancaster and the beer. Tour guide was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. We highly recommend!

The tour with Mike lived up to all the positive reviews we read on Tripadvisor. Mike adjusted his schedule to accommodate a last minute conflict we had. He is enjoyable to be with, has lots of Lancaster stories and obviously loves the area. He also shared a number of recommendations of other things to do. It was our first visit to Lancaster and this was a great way to begin. We will come back! Thanks Mike for a fun afternoon!

Mike S was our guide for a little more than 2 hours. We use a lot of tours when traveling. For us it's a way of understanding what we are seeing and get a history lesson. Mike has a passion for what he does. We had a great time, learned a lot, and tasted a few beers. Ask for Mike and you won't go wrong. There were 2 couples so nice size.
