In Milwaukee, bars aren't just a place to go boozing. They're also a source of history. Many of the city's bars have been around for more than a hundred years, some even date back to 1847. On the Pre-Prohibition Historic Bar Tour, you can check out four of the bars over the course of three hours.

Board a bus will fellow tour-goers and get ready to learn about the boozy backstory of downtown Milwaukee. At each bar, you get to sip on a six-ounce pour of beer, and at one of the locations, a six-ounce Old Fashioned. You'll have about 30 minutes at each bar to savor your libation, and one of them will even provide an authentic German pretzel to help soak up the suds. So embark on this Milwaukee Food & City Tour if you're interested in sipping and nibbling your way through the city.
