4.The Speakeasy Adventure: A Tipsy Trip Through History

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 220 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $38Top rated

Walk Midtown with a local guide such as Ryan, Emily, Kate, or Tim, visiting three changing speakeasy-style bars and a beer garden. Hear Prohibition and immigration stories, enjoy express entry, and budget about $20 per drink. Groups are capped at 10 per booking.

“We enjoyed this experience but I can’t say it wasn’t an amazing one. Our guide was great fun, very personable and social but there wasn’t very much information or history on this tour. A lot of the time you are just left to socialise with other members of the tour and if you have a group that doesn’t gel it can be pretty awkward. The three locations we visited were pretty mediocre. The last one had the very worst drink we have ever had, which we found hilarious. Overall, if you have nothing to do in the evening it is something you might enjoy and meet some interesting people.”
