Hallie f$@&!n rocks! - Hallie was an amazing guide. Her beer recommendations were on point, and her history lessons were gripping even to someone like me who isn’t into history. Definitely recommend!

Great way to spend 2 hours!! - The overall experience was fun. Our guide Maddie had a good sense of humor and history. Beer was good and made new friends. The only downside was that we only covered 2 blocks of the Freedom Trail.

Freedom Trail Is Absent From This Tour - The description of the tour was, “The Freedom Trail with stops of a couple of historic pubs along the way.” You don’t see the historic part of the pub because we were led into a separate room with no character. The Freedom Trail is completely absent from the tour. The pubs were all next to one another. I really disappointed my family. Fortunately, we have time to walk the Freedom Trail ourselves today. The tour guide could not have peppered her talks with more expletives and meaningless antidotes about our history if she tried. I still gave her a good tip. Perhaps she was not trained, so she could write her script- not her fault I guess.
