Amazing experience - highly recommend

This was one of the best things we did on our trip! We weren’t sure if we wanted to do it but SO happy we did. All of the communication about booking and where to meet was very clear so we found our tour guide right away. We had Tony who was absolutely phenomenal!! He had such a good balance of history, humor, and Boston/Salem knowledge. We stopped at three pubs and the drinks were great along with the history! Would highly, highly recommend doing this, you will not be disappointed!
