Step by Step

Embark on a fascinating journey back in time with a tour of New York's prohibition-era pubs. This approximately 5-hour tour will take you back to the 1920s, when alcohol prohibition transformed the city's nightlife into a maze of speakeasies and underground activities. Under the guidance of a knowledgeable expert, you'll explore the streets of the theatre district, revealing the stories and secrets of the speakeasies that defined that era.

During the tour, you'll discover the historic locations of these iconic bars and see how the city maintained its vibrant nightlife despite restrictions. You'll visit at least three iconic bars, including the 21 Club and the Flute Bar, which recreate the atmosphere of those turbulent times.

At each stop you'll have the option to sample unique craft cocktails , prepared from prohibition-era recipes by talented mixologists, such as a Bloody Mary at the bar where this famous drink originated. It's worth noting that cocktails are optional and the cost is not included in the activity.

As you go, you'll learn about bootlegging, the gangsters who dominated the nightlife scene, and the colourful characters who left an indelible mark on New York's history. Enjoy an immersive experience that combines the history and culture of an era that continues to fascinate all who seek a unique view of the Big Apple.
