“Ryan was a great tour guide. We had a small group (7) and it was perfect for getting to know eachother and hanging out for an evening. By the end we were signing, dancing and hanging out together like old friends. The bars chosen were ones we would never have found on our own and included rooftop bars, quaint spots beneath the street and both upscale and speakeasy. We ended with live music with a little something for everyone. Definitely our favorite night in NY. -from a mom and her two adult sons celebrating a 21st birthday”

“Do not book! Our tour gave a party member shots for her birthday, then the last bar would not let us. The guide left 7 women with no idea where to go. We were not allowed to finish and had to find our way back. The last bar said only one was not allowed to come in. This is total BS! We paid for 3 bars and we were not allowed to finish. Do not book. Go on your own. The drinks were at least $30. They would not allow us to sit down because we were a party if tour. There was no dancing. No live music. The tour…”
