Beer and history? What’s not to love! - What a fun tour! Anna was a great guide- entertaining and knowledgeable. I’m a retired history teacher, and even I learned a couple of things! The pubs were lively, the beers were very good, and we had an awesome time!

Disappointing Experience - Our tour guide was fabulous, but this really should have been called the Hundred-Foot Journey... Two of the bars were right next door. We did not see much of the Freedom Trail, and drinks were NOT included in the price. (That detail is vague on the tour description.) Anywho, the drinks were terrible. One bar took three people to look up how to make a drink we ordered from their menu, What? Our tour guide was lovely, but sitting around a table and learning about Boston history from an iPad was not what I was expecting.
