About
Mobsters and Lobsters is a one of a kind trolley tour through Boston's sinister underground... Hear tales of mystery, mayhem, and murder while traveling through the city on an open air trolley (don't worry, there's windows and heat if necessary!) We specialize in corporate events and group outings, where we offer transportation, entertainment, dining and fun all in one! The tour has the option to conclude at a beautiful waterfront restaurant, where guests will dine together on a traditional New England boiled lobster dinner. (Alternate menu selections are available for those who don't eat seafood!) We also offer charters, party bus rentals, tailgate options, wedding transportation and more!

The title is true. It was
the best night of my life. I owe it all to Mobsters & Lobsters. We were blessed with Melissa as our driver. Hearing that she is a fairly new at the job was a shock. She was knowledgeable, inviting, and so much fun. My 35 friends and I laughed, danced, sang our hearts out, and nearly cried when the 4 hours were over. If you’re looking for a sign to grab your friends, family, coworkers or strangers and get on the Mobsters & Lobsters bus, look no further. This is it.

What an amazing night!
40 players/parents/ siblings and friends travelled from Norwell to the TD Garden… front door drop off and the best driver you could ask for! Scotty Mac was friendly, accommodating and so easy to work with!!! I highly recommend both Mobsters & Lobsters AND Scotty Mac!!
Thank you for a memorable night of music, snacks and fun!

A wonderful time with our driver Melissa! What was a night out with friends, she turned it into an adventure! We were everywhere throughout the city, and learning fun facts about the city’s nefarious capers and history! She was also very accommodating to us and our needs, especially with the chilly weather. Wish we had more time but that just means we’ll have to do it again! 10/10 for this experience and Melissa!

We were educated on the inner workings of the mob in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s, all the way through the 2000s. We saw memorable landmarks and got chills driving down streets where shootings and robberies took place. We were also educated on historical Boston events. Tom Collins was well versed and his strong Boston accent made it all the more real, as if he lived through the stories. Would definitely recommend!!

Went with my team for a work trip and had the best time with Scotty and Mandi!!! Even though we had a ton of Bostonians on our tour, it was still so fun and interesting to ride around the city and hear about stories or places. 10/10 would recommend!

Scotty Mac is the absolute best! We had such a fun night start to finish. Scotty was very accommodating and super fun, we got to play our own music on the bus and we loved every single minute! 11/10 experience

I hosted a client event with Mobsters and Lobsters on 6/25. Tom and Shawna were above and beyond FABULOUS! The tour was incredibly fun, entertaining, and so well run. The food and restaurant were delicious and the service was wonderful! I highly recommend this tour for Corporate events, birthdays, or any other type of gathering where you are looking for a uniquely Boston experience. 10/10 highly recommend and can't wait to bring more clients to Mobsters & Lobsters!

We always have an amazing time with Mobsters and Lobsters as a party trolley for any occasion. Tom is an amazing host and makes sure the day is fun for everyone. We've had birthday parties, theme parties, Halloween parties (in full costume), and trolleys just for the fun of it and every time we're excited to come back for another trip around the city with Tom and Mobsters and Lobsters. Mobsters and Lobsters is a fan favorite of our entire friend group and we look forward to getting together and seeing Tom again soon!

Scotty is a fantastic tour guide and really expresses his love and knowledge of the city on our tour. Our work team had a fantastic time touring the city and learning the history of Bostons seedy underbelly. The 2 hour tour features a ride through north end, beacon hill and the commons and its history. Highly recommend!

Scotty is an incredible tour guide, he made us feel incredibly safe and was very personable. Even though we all are from the Boston area he taught us all new facts about the city. If you take this tour request Scotty Mac!!

Hi there! My two friends and I are taking a trip to Boston from 5/17-5/20 and your tour sounds like a blast! I'm hoping there some availability that weekend. I tried emailing, but got a bounce back from the address on your website.

Hey! Try sending us an email again or calling 7819642472!
We would love to throw you on a tour if we can!

Hi there,
Just wondering if there is a tour on April 14th 2018? Myself and my partner will be in Boston that weekend for some sightseeing. Your tour sounds great!

Hi Stuart!
Thanks so much for your message! If you could email us from our website I would love to try to help you!

Is this tour appropriate for a 16 year old girl. She loves adventure and good food. Of course, she would forgo the wine.
Thanks,
Lynn K.
Written October 16, 2017
we only do corporate outings or private tours. in my opinion, I wouldn't recommend this tour for a 16 yr. old girl. some of the material is adult in nature. I would recommend cityview trolley tours,as they are family friendly. you could also eat at any restaurant in Boston without doing a tour.
