Misleading title not really a pub crawl. Only went into one bar and then the tour fizzled out. We decided to just go around on our own. I think they should change the title of what they are offering and then there wont' be any disappointment. It's bacically semi-amuzing stories with a one stop destination to get a drink. Save your money to buy drinks if you really want to experience a pub crawl.Lance created a really fun and welcoming environment so the whole group was a blast as we went through town. The stories were very interesting (not too spooky) and the two bars were cool!
