March 9th 2024 - The tour guide was great but the experience wasn't at the 3 stop. The establishment was overcrowded and the staff sent us upstairs to crash a private event that turned out to be someone's 30th birthday. I am sure there are more and better places to stop at in Boston and would recommend dropping them from the tour as we were informed this isn't the first time this has happened.

It was fun to do... - It was fun to do something different in the city. The guide was very nice, if the bars weren’t all right next to each more walking. Also, even though we enjoyed the experience thoroughly, it was a little expensive for what it was. I think the price should’ve been 60 that includes alcohol.

NOT worth it! - This was awful. You could not hear what the guide was saying. She barely gave any historical information, and the beer was terrible. You are better off on your own and stopping at pubs where you can order the drinks you prefer.
