Ye Olde Tavern Tours

Overview

Ye Olde Tavern Tours offers historic tavern tours in Boston because we believe beer makes history even better! On our guided walking tours, you'll see ten sites on the Freedom Trail and grab a beer at some of the nation's most historic taverns. When visiting Boston, there are certain historic sites and stories you shouldn't leave without seeing and hearing, and you'll do all of that on our tour, all while drinking beer!

Led by expertly-trained historians (our guides have a minimum of a Bachelor's in History and many of them are currently working towards or have a PhD in History), you'll learn about the drunken and revolutionary history of Boston in the eighteenth century.

We cap each tour at 12 people to provide an intimate and accessible experience. Our tours are the most fun and social way to experience Boston!

We are a small, local business and we greatly appreciate your support!

ALL GUESTS MUST BE 21+ YEARS OF AGE. NO EXCEPTIONS.

Super fun! Our guide (Rachel) was so knowledgable. Her energy about Boston and its history made learning about it very interesting. You can tell she enjoyed what she was doing. Highly recommend1

We had so much fun learning about the freedom trail while hanging out in a few of America's oldest pubs. Brooke was an amazing guide with loads of history to share with us. She kept us all interested and entertained. The 3 pubs were great with delicious beers as well as at least one cider choice. We would do this tour again and we highly recommend Brooke. Thanks for an awesome afternoon!
