Trace Revolutionary Boston through four distinctive bars, with local stories, lively trivia, and drinks from beer to a tropical Zombie.

About this tour

Follow Boston’s revolutionary past from the tavern to the cocktail bar on a lively pub crawl through four distinctive stops. With a local guide leading the way, Boston Revolutionary History Pub Crawl brings colonial-era stories, legends, and modern drinking culture together over about 2.5 hours.

Begin at Sam Adams Brewery, where your ticket includes a beverage of your choice, then continue to Tiki Cove for a tropical Zombie, the Green Dragon Tavern for a 20 oz Guinness, and Modern Underground for an award-winning Espresso Martini. Each stop has its own atmosphere and a story to tell. Hear about the Boston Tea Party, the role of taverns in the Revolution, Caribbean influences, and the colorful characters behind the city’s folklore. A round of 2 Truths and a Lie adds a playful challenge as you sort history from legend.

Meet your guide outside Faneuil Hall, or inside the hall if it rains. Bring valid photo ID and be ready to walk between venues; food and transportation are not included. Boston Revolutionary History Pub Crawl finishes in the North End, close to Italian restaurants. Come curious, raise a glass, and see Boston’s history from a spirited new angle.

How this score is calculated

This tour scores 5.00 on Viator (GetYourGuide shows no usable rating). Ratings on these sites cluster near the top of the 5-star scale, so we compare each one with all other ratings on the same site before combining them.

How the score works and rating distribution in Boston
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.5. Top 27% in Boston means it ranks in the top 27% of tours in Boston by this score.
