This was a fun, historical, spooky tour of Boston! Olivia, our tour guide, kept everyone engaged, was very entertaining, and knowledgeable on all this history. Having stops at the bars provided nice walking breaks while still keeping the stories going. The walking is not a long route. Would definitely recommend for others to try it out.

Olivia was great! We had so much fun! Learned so history about Boston and some hauntings! Got some great drinks, unfortunately didn’t meet any ghosts.

Fun & Educational Experience

Tanya_H, Aug 2025

A haunted pub crawl in Boston was an awesome way to blend two of the city's best offerings: its deep, colonial history and its vibrant pub scene. It's a great experience for a group of friends or a date night.

Fun activity with a lot of history!

kstegbauer, Jul 2025

Shannon was great! Very passionate and a great storyteller! No need to be a drinker to enjoy the tour!

Ghost stories and pubs

Rhonda_G, Jul 2025

The tour started at the Omni Parker hotel and then two other pubs. Other stops on the street along the way from Boston Common to the Boston library. Shannon told many many ghost stories as well as historical facts and interesting tid bits of information. We very much enjoyed everything about our tour and Shannon did a great job!

cayd is the best!

Helene_L, May 2025

Cayd was our tour guide for the evening and was absolutely amazing. They are a great story teller and a spectacular guide. They gave drink recommendations at each bar and had great rapport with all the staff. They were extremely professional and made the night so much fun. By the end of the night my group and I stuck around at the last bar for a few hours just to keep hanging out. 10/10 do recommend!

Alayna was a fantastic...

Ashley_W, Apr 2025

Alayna was a fantastic host. Kinda bummed I was the only one, but she still went all out. It was awesome seeing new bars around the city.

Super friendly guide

Andrew_C, Mar 2025

We had an awesome tour guide. Even got drinks with us after. From Massachusetts so we weren't traveling. Just went to Boston for the night. I'd recommend

It's a very fun...

DebraBurge, Feb 2025

It's a very fun experience. You get to enjoy ghost stories, see iconic sites, and visit some interesting bars, filled with interesting people.

4 stars

Lisa_C, Nov 2024

We weren’t able to finish the tour because I didn’t feel well. But Shannon was very friendly! We enjoyed her. Our only suggestion would be to have a reserved table at each bar and a waitress to take drink orders immediately. We were told “15 minutes” and I personally cannot drink a drink in 15 minutes. The bars were packed. That defeats the “booze” part of the tour. I know this is not Shannon’s fault, the tour company should plan for this. A reserved table could also mean everyone can sit together. Just seemed unorganized.

Great time, interesting ghost stories. Awesome bars

Eliza_A, Oct 2024

It was great, our tour guide was awesome, would recommend! Nadia was a great speaker and kept it interesting and moving. Very spooky

Awesome

Judy_B, Jul 2024

Went to the greatest bars… would have never known about or considered! Fun evening. I’ve guide was super entertaining

Not very informative about Ghosts

Stacey_A, Jul 2024

Having drinks. But the guides really didn't make it ghost focused. It was more like just bar hopping.

Awesome fun tour

Christinacooper365, Jul 2024

Our tour guide Nadia was awesome. I would definitely recommend this tour we visited some cool establishments

Fun history

Jared_B, Jun 2024

Fun history. Organization at bars could have been a little better. We had a group of 12. Very small areas. Seems like they could let them know we are coming.
