Spend a night tasting New York’s world-renowned cocktail culture and get tips on how to make your own craft cocktails, with this fun-filled Happy Hour tour. This is by far the best way to kick off one of those evenings you aren’t likely to forget.

Highlights
- Visit a selection of the very best cocktail bars in the city
- Learn thrilling tales about local libation lore
- Enjoy sipping some of the tastiest cocktails in the area

One simply can’t come to New York and not spend a night discovering its vibrant nightlife. But finding one’s way around such a big city can be intimidating for first timers. That is why we invite you to join us on this Happy Hour tour, where you will very soon become acquainted with a series of reference cocktail bars.

Along the way, you’ll hear stories of how the modern cocktail came to be, how prohibition in America affected the bar scene, and how cocktails are enjoying a resurgence as a result of the craft distilling and cocktail movement.

We’ll keep the discussion going with visits to the sites of former speakeasies (hidden illegal bars that operated during the prohibition era) and share tales of the gangsters and politicians that kept the liquor flowing despite the 18th Amendment.

And on most nights, we’ll also swing by New York’s premier wine and spirits store, Astor Wines, where our expert guides can help you pick out the perfect boozy souvenir to take home with you after the tour. We’ll show you what to look for when buying different spirits and will highlight the new local micro-distillers that have opened up over the last several years and are producing delicious whiskeys, rums, vodkas, and gins.

In between stops you’ll learn all about the East Village, its history, and what is happening there today, including where to eat, drink, and play.

Toast your way through the past and present of beer brewing in Brooklyn as you scoot around town having a tipple as you go!

Highlights
- Sample from a selection of craft beers and learn about their production along the way
- Listen up and get the lowdown on the locals with super stories about brewing, bottling and bootlegging
- Step inside 19th-century brewery buildings that were once part of the old-fashioned Brewers Row

This neighborhood was once home to 48 breweries, but this ancient trade pretty much vanished in to thin air from the borough in the 1970s and later made itself known once again quite recently with craft breweries leading the way. If you want a taste (quite literally...) of the history behind beer brewing in New York, look no further than this!

You shall even get to take a look about in one of the new craft breweries which has played a helping hand in bringing the industry back with a boom! On top of that, one of the craft beer bars used to be part of the once thriving Brewers Row. It’s safe to say you can tuck in to the culture and have a whale of a time at the same time. Your tour guide will be more than willing and able to share their top tips and let you know what’s what in the world of booze, you’ll be more than in the knowhow once you’ve knocked back a brew or two.

On this NYC beer tour, we'll take a behind-the-scenes local look at how beer is made at one of Brooklyn's present-day breweries. Check out the pre-prohibition era as we suss out 19th-century brewery buildings, visit landmarked sites and be told a fair few tales about the German settlers who lived and worked in the neighborhood. Whilst you’re making your way from bar to bar, you’ll be nibbling your way through the terrific tour as well. We’ll enjoy a number of great Brooklyn brews from all kinds of different spots, we even stop off at a local pizza joint for lunch. Join us as we raise a glass to the history and masters of beer in Brooklyn!

On this bike tour, we explore a bit of the fashionable East Side, traffic-free Central Park, and the fascinating neighborhoods of the Upper West Side, Harlem, East Harlem, and Morningside Heights. In Morningside Heights, we visit the magnificent campus of Columbia, the third oldest university in the country, and take in the gorgeously gothic St. John the Divine, an enormous cathedral with beautifully sculpted artwork on its grounds and facade.

In Central Park, we access areas seldom seen by those just walking through the park or biking the loop road. The Park’s three distinct Conservatory Gardens, of Italian, French, and English styles, illustrate the breathtaking changes Central Park has undergone since the 1980s. And, of course, we’ll be sure to visit the must-see attractions, like Strawberry Fields, Bethesda Fountain, and much more! Further east, we find El Barrio, otherwise known as Spanish Harlem. Here, the streets, parks, and community gardens come to life with some of the city’s most vibrant Puerto Rican, Dominican, and Mexican communities. Instead of a more traditional sit-down lunch, we make a couple of shorter stops for two of New York’s most iconic edibles--bagels and pizza (food & drink cost not included)! This fun, full-day tour takes about 5 hours, including various stops near all of the essential attractions.

Central Park Harlem “El Barrio” - Spanish Harlem Morningside Heights Columbia University This moderately paced tour is perfect for riders of any skill level.

Americans see the big picture - this is well known - and for Christmas they are no exception to the rule! Where we simply decorate a Christmas tree by hanging a few balls and one or two light chains, our friends across the Atlantic are transforming homes and gardens into veritable dream factories, as evidenced by the photos below!

The Christmas lights are of course visible in Manhattan (street decorations, animated department store windows, ephemeral markets ...), but it is in the Carroll Gardens neighborhood, Cobble Hill Dyker Heights and especially the magic of Christmas decorations comes into its own! That's why we will take you by mini-bus to the discovery of these neighborhoods in Brooklyn (places little or no accessible by subway).

Several stops are planned to make walking and enjoying the outdoor decorations, folklore and magical atmosphere of this special time of year. A family visits if any, that will be at night, as you can imagine!

So much happened before Dorothy dropped in. Wicked, the Broadway sensation, looks at what happened in the Land of Oz…but from a different angle. Long before Dorothy arrives, there is another girl, born with emerald-green skin-smart, fiery, misunderstood, and possessing an extraordinary talent. When she meets a bubbly blonde who is exceptionally popular, their initial rivalry turns into the unlikeliest of friendships…until the world decides to call one “good,” and the other one “wicked.” With a thrilling score that includes the hits “Defying Gravity,” “Popular” and “For Good,” Wicked has been hailed by The New York Times as “the defining musical of the decade.”

Time Magazine cheers, “if every musical had the brain, the heart, and the courage of Wicked, Broadway really would be a magical place.” The Gershwin Theatre on 50th Street and Broadway is that magical place. From the first electrifying note to the final breathtaking moment, Wicked (the untold true story of the Witches of Oz) transfixes audiences with its wildly inventive story.

It’s back aboard the ferry then for the short ride to Ellis Island. Here you’ll be particularly grateful for your expert guide as they lead you through the immigration process undergone by 12 million new arrivals. Walk the Stairs of Separation and get a feel for how it must have felt for lovers and families as they awaited their fate – and the start of a new life in land of the free.

Your guide will walk you through the fantastic exhibits of the Ellis Island Museum, answering any questions you may have. This is where the first part of your tour ends, and with 2.5 – 3 hours before the next leg of our Lower Manhattan journey, you have plenty of time to spare. Spend a little while more on Ellis Island if you like, before hopping on the ferry back to Battery Park (included in the price) and getting lunch on your way to the meeting point for our afternoon activity – a complete One World Observatory & World Trade Centre Tour.

Standing tall and proud on the site of the 9/11 attacks, One World Tower is a testament to a city that was knocked down and got back up again. Get to the heart of that terrible tragedy and learn how NYC rebuilt itself bigger, better and stronger on our guided tour.

You’ll start out at St Peters Church, the oldest Roman Catholic parish in New York State.

On next to some sites you may have missed visiting on your own. With a local guide leading the way, you’ll see special spots away from the major landmarks.

At the 9/11 Memorial too, your guide will make your visit that bit more special. Together you’ll see the Twin Reflecting Pools, built in the footprints of the World Trade Centre and engraved with the names of every victim. Learn the little nuances that make it more touching; like how staff place a single rose in the name of each victim on their birthday. Visit the Fireman’s Memorial to pay tribute to those brave men and women who worked around the clock after the attacks. See the Survivor’s Tree, a single tree which miraculously survived the attacks and was nursed back to health by New Yorkers, as a symbol of their enduring strength.

The highlight of your tour comes at the end with a visit to the brand new One World Observatory. With pre-reserved tickets your visit is guaranteed to go ahead regardless of the how large the crowds are. There’s not much explanation needed here so your guide will leave you for an independent visit.

Inside the lobby you’ll find videos about the production of this incredible structure - said to be the strongest in the world - and of the men and women who built it. Then board a ‘skypod’ to travel through time AND space. Created in association with Universal Studios, the special ‘skypod’ elevators are covered inside in LCD screens, on which you’ll watch the changing face of New York from the 1600s to today while ascending 102 floors in just 42 seconds. Disembark at the top of One World Tower for incredible panoramic views over NYC. What better way to end a day of looking back with a glance into the future.
