Our guide, Jim, was fantastic and super knowledgeable about the history surrounding the city. He was very accommodating with our kids and our schedule. We really can’t say enough great things about him. Our family had a great time and it’s something we will never forget.

Review of the night: From fancy, quaint, speak easy, some with views we hit a few different spots I was happy to get to. I’m a native and decided to come along loved all the out-of-towners and the fun we had with our group.

George and his colleague are perfect for this job. This tour is very nice for “solo travelers”. It’s the perfect way to enjoy the night drinking and making new friends. See you soon!

Very good. Perfect program for those who like to interact and want to discover places to drink. The guides are great. I recommend and would do it again. Att. Mateus, Brazil
