Good history of Cincinnati. Our tour guide Harrison was super knowledgeable and told interesting and funny stories. He also had awesome hair!
Such a fun tour seeing a hidden side of Cincinnati. Miranda was a fantastic guy and brought so much fun to the tours.
It’s a great experience! Our tour guide, Miranda, had great stories and was very friendly . We enjoyed the experience and history of the area.
This was great! Our tour girl shared a lot of fun stories and learned a lot about Cincinnati in a fun way. SO to Miranda!
Renee did a fabulous job! The history behind the tunnels was something new. The fact that one of the tunnels was just discovered in 2016 is just amazing to me to learn.
Loved the tour. Originally from Boston area and had very little knowledge of Cincinnati history. The information was provided in an easy to understand way, adding a fun flair. Harrison answered questions and tied them to other aspects of the area. Have been on many tours and this was at comfortable pace and not rushed. Loved the tid bit tying Boston and Sam Adams to Cincinnati history.
Much more enjoyable than just a walkabout. Miranda's lively narration and bubbly personality keep you engaged for an interesting tour that also features a taste of the supernatural to complement the beer.
Amanda gave a Great history lesson of the area and was super informative! You will do some walking and narrow stair climbing but it’s definitely worth it!
Packed with fun facts, historical tidbits and ghostly delights! Martha Miranda did you proud! Her Aussie American with a touch of Texas accent kept everyone entertained! Looking forward to seeing Hooch on that pitchers mound..see ya next time mate!
Harrison was very good explaining everything.
Harrison has great hair. The market wall added a lot of history of Over the Rhine
Such a fun historical tour. Miranda made it the most fun for sure! A must do if visiting Cincy or live here and just found out about these hidden tunnels. Follow up with a visit to Ghost baby!
There are stairs that feel like more of a ladder. Doable but make sure you are surefooted. Tour guide was knowledgeable and fun. Worth it to hear about the long-standing history of Cincinnati and breweries. Recommend.
Miranda, aka blonde Australian chick, was a great tour host. My girlfriend and I had an incredible time exploring the city and the tunnels.
This tour was very fun and learned some interesting facts. I’d say Miranda, our tour guide, was what made the tour so fun!
Had a great time and guide was excellent. Very informative. Me and my family will be looking into additional tours that they may offer in the area
Great tour to learn about some of the history of Cincinnati. Our guide Laura was very knowledgeable and entertaining

Fantastic tour given by Miranda. Great facts and lots of laughing. She’s super knowledgeable about Cincinnati’s history, especially as it pertains to beer!
Our guide Miranda was excellent. A spunky blonde Australian chick. She was both knowledgeable and entertaining! The tour showed us some of the recently found tunnels and caverns used by brewers a century ago. The tour was filled with stories about Cincinnati, prohibition and even some ghost stories. Well worth the trip. Grab a friend and take the tour!

Miranda was our tour guide and she did a phenomenal job, my husband and I have done a lot of tours and she is probably the best tour guide we have ever had. Very informative. We learned a lot. Beer was great at the end.
Miranda was an amazing tour guide. She knew our names, made us feel a part, was very knowledgeable and funny.
Miranda was a fantastic guide for this experience. We learned about the city and brewery heritage of Over the Rhine. The Caverns were fascinating as were the many stories Miranda shared with our tour group of about 25 people.
Our first time to Cinci and so happy we booked this tour. Miranda was wonderful and provided an all around great experience….information, laughter, and wonderful locations to explore. Not to mention the beverages and food at Northern Row Were fantastic!
Miranda was a great tour guide! A wealth of knowledge, great at explaining things, and super funny! We learned a lot and had a memorable time.
