The best part of this tour is the history that you get. The 2nd part is the best local brewed beers that you get at all 3 bars that you visit.

The tour guides were friendly, knowledgeable and a lot of fun. We learned a lot, had some pretty spectacular beers, and enjoyed every minute of the tour. I highly recommend this unique Boston experience!

One of our favorite tours we have ever done. Brooke Barbiers expansive knowledge of Bostons history is beyond impressive. She makes it super fun and the added bonus are the 3 pub stops. We highly recommend!! Thanks Brooke!!
