The party bus!!! So fun. One of the best birthday experiences I have had. You can book the bus for a minimum of four hours and as many stops as you would like. our bus driver was great and incredibly helpful. He knew of extra bars to stop by that do not include covers and free shots for the birthday person. He also stopped for hotdogs at one point. it is byob and your own playlist. There is truly no experience quite like it where you can jam to music and drink, while driving around Boston. Would recommend for any occasion. read more

Holy shit, what a gas... As part of our social engagement for work. We were designated to go on a bus tour of the Boston scene. Not necessarily the usual Boston, the underground Boston. Mobsters and Lobsters is a mafia story laden trip that ends up at the south shore popular lobster eatery. Although Mother Nature and the traffic in downtown Boston decided yo play games with us the owner who's name actually is Tom Collins, started off with a quick quip yo get the folks settled and the first round of beverages were begun. Tom brings us around to the spectacular locations and spots where specific mobsters from the years past were doing their cunning and not so cunning work. Tom's knowledge for this thoroughly interesting topic is unmatched. His serious knowledge of the history of other significant historical places and events speckled with his dry "Bastan" humor. Made this trip extremely worthwhile. The duration was four hours long which also included a Lobster dinner at a local eatery on the south Boston harbor. I haven't laughed this hard in a long while. If you are in beantown for a spell. I highly recommend you and you motley crew join Tom for an interesting alcohol added trip back in time. I am positive your jaws and cheeks will be sore from laughing so hard. Be aware this is an "R" rated trip! But very worth it. Thanks Tom for making this a great memorable evening. read more

I went on the mobsters and lobsters trolley for a corporate event and WOW!!! BEST SIGHTSEEING TOUR/TROLLEY ever . My company plans trips yearly to a new place with some kind of sightseeing or activity. This is by far my favorite of anything we have ever done. We learned a lot of interesting mobster history, in an open air trolley, where they served us beer,,wine, white claws on the trolley. Perfectly timed bathroom stops . BUT for me ---- what made the experience so awesome was our driver and owner of this company . He was so funny he had our trolley laughing all day long. I think he could have a second career as a stand up comic funny.... And that my friends is very hard to find . I would highly recommend this for your next corporate sightseeing activity. read more

Hands down the best tour I've ever taken-- mobsters and lobsters is such a special and engaging experience! Tom really brought the energy and impressed us with all his knowledge. Would highly recommend for groups looking for a fun day filled with Boston mobster history. read more

Super fun day driving around Boston and learning all about the mobster criminal history of the city. Tom was very engaging and made us laugh and taught us all a lot. Even on a dreary rainy day we had a blast. Highly recommend! read more

Tom and Victoria are the best tour guides you can ask for! They're both knowledgable and had energy throughout the entire tour. After our first stop, which was Fenway Park, we were actually running a bit late to our lobster dinner so they grabbed snacks for the group. They even remembered that some people were vegan so they even considered that as well! We were served beer on tap and bottled beer where they had a huge selection of amazing beer! They didn't just hand you the bottle, they actually poured the beer in a Mobster and Lobster customized cup that you get to bring home! This couple did an amazing job keeping the energy up and were super entertaining with their story of the city and Italian and Irish mobs! read more

I booked a Mobsters & Lobsters tour of Boston for a group of out-of-town colleagues who were in Boston for a few days for a company meeting. The whole process went perfectly smoothly and the tour was a hoot! Booking the tour was easy and the M&L staff know Boston very well, so they were able to suggest good pick-up and drop-off spots. The tour was fun and informative, but most importantly the tour guides are so funny and engaging! We had a small group of 8 people and the guide made every effort to keep everyone laughing and engaged. Dinner at Venezia was OK, not amazing. The view was nice and service was attentive but the food was about average. The M&L joined us for the meal and kept us entertained with stories of Boston history. At the end of the tour, our guides were kind enough to make multiple stops to drop everyone off at several different hotels. Flawless service, door to door! read more

I've been in contact with the owner for over two months trying to get my belongings back that I have proof he has and not only has he been openly ignoring me, but now he is saying that they are lost. I have offered to come and get them and pay for shipping multiple times. I've called him off my phone and got ignored and he would pick up my friends call 2 minutes later. Most unprofessional business I have been in contact with and I'm going to get a lawyer involved. read more

Tommy and Torrie do an awesome job of making your event non stop fund and comfort. And they have fun with you! Used their trolley to make a pick up and drop off at cruise port in Boston a load of fun for a group of 12 and way better than trying to figure out parking for 12 for a week in Boston! read more

Omg is all I can say. This is the best tour of Boston I have ever taken. There was so much I had learned and being from Charlestown I was just amazed. Tom and Victoria were awesome answered all my questions. The divining experience again was excellent I couldn't of found a better restraunt to go to. Food was excellent. Tom was so comical during the ride through as was Victoria. I hope they upgrade and do other parts of Boston because I will be back. So worth the money and time. read more

Mobsters And Lobsters - Team bonding and tour of the city - Bus Tours Near Me

This was such a fun event for my team! We are in Kendal Square so they were able to pick us up from the office. We took a group picture with Ashley the lobster before we boarded which was a great way to kick off the night. We opted for the additional trolly drinks which was a nice touch but definitely is fun regardless. I live in the North End and Eddie still shared some stories that I didn't know about. Eddie and Ashley were a great time! Then we went to dinner at Venezia on the waterfront in Dorchester. Amazing dinner. Food was great, drinks were delicious and didn't have one complaint from my entire party of 19. I grabbed some marketing flyers before I left so I could share with the other people we work with. AMAZING Experience! read more

Tom was fantastic! Highly recommend this tour. It was a lot of fun and very informative.

Our team booked the Mobster & Lobsters tour for a company outing. It truly is a one-of-a-kind tour filled with interesting facts about Boston that even locals don't know about! The trolley itself was comfortable and spacious. Tom's sense of humor and knowledge made the tour spectacular. I highly suggest this tour to anyone visiting the Boston area or any groups looking for a fun outing! read more

Great outing with our sales team! Friendly hosts and good balance of tour, jokes and fun!

Absolutely a blast. Tom and Victoria were amazing. Totally unique outing that included some great stories and a lot of fun. Can't recommend it enough for any group looking for a casual fun adventure in Boston! read more

My company hosted our annual offsite meeting in the Boston Seaport this year and we decided to go on a Mobsters & Lobsters Trolley Tour for our fun activity. It was a fun filled tour, with lots of interesting facts about Boston, the greatest city in the world! The dinner was delicious and the restaurant service was outstanding. Tom and Victoria were delightful to work with. I would highly suggest this tour to anyone visiting the Boston area! read more

Best tour in Boston without a doubt. Tom and Victoria couldn't be better hosts, they go above and beyond. Our entire party loved the tour and dinner. It is all we talked about the next day. If you want a fun night out, get on the Mobsters and Lobsters tour, I guarantee you will not be disappointed. read more

Run, don't walk, to your computer or phone and book a tour with this company! Just had our company outing with these guys and it was excellent! Tom and Victoria were the best - Tom was so knowledgeable with just the right touch of snarky humor to keep our group on their toes and Victoria was so sweet. Growing up in the Boston area, I learned so many things I didn't know during the tour and sightseeing was a pleasure I've denied myself for too long. After the tour, we had lunch at Venezia, which was delightful, in a beautiful room overlooking the water. I highly, highly recommend. read more

What a fun trip around Boston. The tour guide knew his Mobsters and his Lobsters. I went on this trip as a company outing. Had a blast learning about the city as I am not from there. I would highly recommend this to my visiting friends and plan on taking my husband on this tour in the spring. read more

Best corporate outing ever! My company and I did this as a team building activity and it was the best thing we've ever done together! I've lived in Boston my whole life and we've done it all. This blew everything out of the water! If you're looking for something fun to do with your company or friends/family, look no further!!! Highly recommend! read more

If you're looking for something fun and something totally different, this is a Boston MUST! I've done it twice and learned something new each time. Great for groups and events. This family run business is so easy to work with and so accommodating. Tom drives the trolley and really knows his stuff about the City, and what's better than hearing it in true Southie style! read more

We took this tour last night for a corporate outing of 30 people after a long week of meetings. I can't say how thankful I am for going with my gut and booking this tour. Tom and Victoria were wonderful and we had such an amazing time seeing the city and taking in all of their knowledge and fun facts about this beautiful city. I think what stood out the most with these two is that their stories don't just come from things they had read, they live and breathe the city of Boston, it's culture and its history and this tour proves it. This is a great way to see the city up close on this comfy and open trolley. Sitting up high gives you a better view of what Tom and Victoria are telling you about and they take the time to stop places and really allow you to get a good view of the city and everything it has to offer. After our tour, they took us to an amazing lobster dinner at Venezia which exceeded our expectations as well. I highly recommend this tour for any large group looking to explore this beautiful city. Thank you Tom and Victoria for your promptness, your knowledge and wonderful sense of humor. read more

Had a phenomenal time on the tour. Family was out from So Cal and a large group of us took the tour. Tom the tour guide would tell stories that made you feel like you were living in that time. The detail and knowledge Tom has of the city in 2nd to none. We have taken many tours in Boston and the Mobsters and Lobsters was hands down the best tour of all. For anyone looking for an in depth history of the city and mob culture I'd highly recommend it for anyone (including children). Thanks again Tom and Victoria for a great time! SC Tritons read more

If you are looking for a unique and very affordable idea for a company outing that will delight even the most difficult to please attendee, look no more! Just jump on board the trolley for a 'Mobsters and Lobsters' tour and you will not be disappointed! From the moment you are greeted by Victoria the Lobster to your final farewell to Tom Collins, your tour guide, you will be treated with the respect and consideration only a Mob Boss could demand! Tom Collins is the 'real deal,' having grown up on the mean streets of Southie! Whitey Bulger was practically his neighbor! And, who could refuse an Ice Cream treat from the notorious criminal and FBI informant, the neighborhood Robin Hood, who played both cops and criminals for fools! Tom is like a human Google search for information about the infamous crimes in the beautiful and historic city of Boston! And, you will be treated to an hour+ monologue detailing the most scandalous crimes and capers! Tom Collins is the personification of 'local,' accent and ALL! Our adventure continues at the Boston Winery with a narrative of how the wines are made and a tasting! Who knew?!? Wine is fermenting in the Dorchester neighborhood of Boston! And, not the everyday stuff. Vino that would even satisfy the Godfather! Try the Malafemmena! The vintner's at Boston Winery create wines au naturale with no added sulfites or preservatives! The Capo does not approve of preservatives unless they are employed in a bonafide hit! And, the journey concludes at Venezia with a delicious dinner even a foodie would love! Overlooking the Neponset River, the twilight view of downtown Boston is spectacular! The wait staff was at our ready the moment we arrived. And, the experience was just exactly what the Capo ordered! 'Mobsters and Lobsters!' The tour you can't refuse. And, you should definitely choose! Your mob-boss and co-criminals will be glad you did! read more

This tour is awesome!!! I highly recommend it! Tom & Victoria are the best and are hilarious. They went out of their way to ensure we all had a great time. I went on this tour as part of a company fun event and will definitely be coming back to bring my friends and family. Can't wait to go on it again! read more

Great tour - fantastic hosts. Tom and Victoria are a great combination - wonderful time.

I took a group of coworkers from all over the world on this tour and they loved it. Not only did the foreigners love it, but the locals did too. The trolley was fun to ride in, and our tour guide was hilarious, we laughed the whole time. It was also nice to know this is a family run business. Our driver was very knowledgeable and informative. The price was great for what we got as well. It was so nice to have a dinner included so I did not have to worry about it. They made my job easy and made me look good. The people from Mobsters & Lobsters were easy going and accommodating, which make the experience great. We went on a tiresome and boring walking tour the next day and it could not compare to the fun we had with M&L. I recommend them for corporate events as a way to relax and blow off some steam at the end of a long day. read more

Great way to learn about a great little city and some colorful history! Tom is a down to earth true Bostonian and so easy to listen to. Kevin dressed as the lobster at the start of the tour set the exact right tone. We hosted a group of young new hires into our organization and it was the perfect way to end the first long day. The meal at the end was delicious, the view enjoyable and the entire event just-right. Do not hesitate to take advantage of this great opportunity to do something different on your next trip to Boston. Highly, highly recommend! read more

We did this tour for a company event and it was a lot of fun! Learned a lot about the history of Boston and laughed a lot along the way! Would recommend this event for anyone in the area - both locals and visitors! The dinner at end was awesome! There were many options including vegetarian! read more

Just took the tour and it was fantastic! Learned a lot but more importantly had a good time. Crazy to hear all of the history of Boston and the mob. Graves, garages and gangsters...you have to take the your to find out the connection. Great history lesson and fun company! Thank you! read more

I was in town for a small conference, and our local host arranged for the group to do "Mobsters and Lobsters". The driver (owner?), Tom, was an excellent story teller, and seemed to really enjoy telling all of us about the history of Boston's shadier elements. Despite the weather, everyone seemed to have a good time. The restaurant, Venezia (?) surprised me...for the better. The clam chowder was really excellent, and the lobster also really good. Given the size of our crowd (~30), I was very impressed with the service. read more

Where do I even begin? Being a 100% Italian with some basic knowledge and a whole lot of interest in the Italian mob, I had high expectations for this tour. Let me just say, Tom Collins and the Boston Trolley Tour company shattered those expectations! From the very moment you step on the trolley, you're greeted by the one and only Tom Collins (and yes, that is his real name). Tom is a funny guy with a serious Boston accent who knows his stuff. In fact, I've never been more interested in hearing someone talk for an entire hour straight than I was during our tour. Tom takes you throughout Boston, into Southie and finally you end up at the lovely Venezia restaurant on the water in Dorchester. Being a Dorchester resident, I've already had the pleasure of frequenting the Venezia but for those of you who haven't been...this is the icing on the already delicious cake. Overall, the fun, interesting tour combined with the delicious dinner at the end is everything you could ask for and more in an event. I would do it again with a more rowdy crowd (since I was with co-workers this go around) but I would reccommend it for any group looking for a good time. read more
