Overview

Take a tipsy journey through the spirit trails of New York's underground watering holes. Your journey will feel like a discovery of hidden escapes from the hustle and bustle of Midtown's tourism hub. Sure to be guided by one of the most exciting tour guides, you'll be captivated by the rich history that has inspired your evening's libations. Walk with us as we retrace the immigrant progress toward the American Dream during Prohibition. We will guide you into one of New York's most iconic speakeasies and tell the tale of the period’s most notorious gangsters and infamous bootleggers. At our second location, we’ll explore the catalysts behind Prohibition and focus on the women of the Gilded Age, and the movement that gave rise to an oil king. To round off our journey together, we’ll take you to one of New York's most unique bars where we’ll discuss the sudden demise of Prohibition.

Ariel was a great story teller and brought people from 10 different places around the world together for a night of history and drinking.

Ryan did a great job of leading us on a convivial tour of three wonderful speakeasy-type bars! This tour involves less walking and perhaps a bit less history than some others, but a wonderful opportunity to chat and get to know other travelers over a delicious cocktail. One of the bars had live music (on a Saturday) which was great.

Ariel was a great host for this tour. She told us history behind each of the establishments and made good recommendations on libations at each place. She really kept the fun going. Highly recommend this tour with Ariel!

This tour was so fun, filled with great drinks at really cool bars. I went by myself, but group interaction was definitely encouraged since everyone’s seated together at each bar, so it was easy to quickly make friends with the rest of the group. Arielle was my tour guide and she did a great job of giving us the scandalous prohibition history for each location and making everyone in the group feel welcome. I followed Arielle’s drink recommendations at each bar we went to and was not disappointed, and there was even a complementary sparkling wine taster at the last bar. Overall super fun way to spend the evening making new friends and learning about the parts of NYC that the other tours don’t tell you
