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!

Brooke was an excellent guide. She is friendly and very knowledgeable. I spent my birthday in Boston and doing this tour was the icing on the cake. The three taverns we visited were all different from each other and the beer selection was too. I highly recommend this tour.

Nina was an awesome tour guide on this fun tour. She's obviously a history buff (getting her doctorate and teaches). She conducted the tour as she told the story of the beginning of the Revolutionary War. The 3 bar stops were fun and offered a nice variety of beers. One of the stops was a very modernized bar at the sight of an old historic bar so this was a little disappointing. Don't know why the owners didn't keep the original atmosphere as much as possible. I would highly recommend this tour with Nina as your guide.

Wow, what a city tour. Our professional guide with Phd in US history made it absolutely interesting and funny. In between, stopping by in some of the old taverns or locations related to the origins of the American revolution in Boston to enjoy good beer actually. So many facts as they really happened instead of how you were told. Absolutely recommended.
