Late Night Desserts in Boston
Dessert warms your soul so as the cooler weather moves in, time to seek out that molten lava chocolate cake or Boston cream pie. Our Chocolate Tours are a perfect adventure or check out our Most Indulgent Desserts in Boston.
Try A Bar Crawl with our Craft Breweries
We love Pumpkin Beer and Pumpkin Cider so much, and they’re popping up as early as this Fall at places like Cambridge Brewing Company and Far from the Tree Cider. Check out our blog post about our favorite craft breweries in Boston. There’s so much creativity in the Boston brew scene, from the label to the process/recipes to the names of the local bottles, these are truly labors of love. On our tours we often sample beer, and you can email us for specific recommendations if you want more recommendations.
