Pub crawl was great, the places we went were a great mix of everything NYC has to offer, being able to skip the massive lines was amazing, and the free shot had me spending less than I normally would have on a night out. The view at the last location was insane and met a lot of new friends too!
Wanted to try something new with a few of my friends and this did not disappoint. Immaculate vibes the whole time as the night just got better and better. Special shoutout the host as well. Would definitely do it again!
was looking for something different to do with my friends and saw this bar crawl. had a lot of fun seeing new places and getting decently priced drinks. third bar was the most fun and I loved the music!!
Man this bar crawl was amazing! The guide was knowledgeable, fun, and took us around to the best places (shots were also a plus)! Will 100% be returning and I recommend this to everyone!
Really fun pub crawl in the heat of NYC nightlife. Great drink salsa at each spot and finished at a great rooftop with amazing views
100% a must do activity while in the city. The host Eitan set up everything wonderfully and going from bar to bar was seamless and fun. 10/10 experience would definitely do it again.
Eitan is a very organized guide, with a good sense of humor and gives a very good experience. It is a perfect way to see the bars and explore the city at night. A very authentic and fun experience, recommended for anyone who wants to enjoy a night out in New York.
great bar crawl!!! everyone in the group was so nice and friendly and all the bar owners were soooo nice, we got a free signature shot at the second place and I don’t know what this man put in there like some kind of fruit juice or something but it was scrumdidliumptious!!!! I was having the dumbest day bc the subways were being soooo slow and annoying and I was like omg nothing will cure my annoyance right now but then i came here and drank and laughed and danced and the subway suffering melted away!!! thank you to awesome host eitan for bringing the best vibes and getting us to skip that long line at the end, great time and great memories!!!
If you want to meet new friends, this is it! You’ll have a great time like I did. Cool young fun people!
Super fun selection of bars and I had a great time meeting everyone in the group when I was visiting NYC. Our host brought the vibes and the free shots were a nice bonus!
