The New York Groove - Anna was a very good tour guide and thanks to her, we experienced some of the best lounges and hidden bars. The atmosphere was upbeat and we had a memorable evening. We will definitely come back!

Insider access to fun nightlife! - Great and eclectic selection of bars! Weaux was a charming guide who sprinkled in interesting historical tidbits along the way. I only wish we had had more participants!

Good time with no hassles - My husband and I enjoyed this tour so much. We especially loved the piano bar, Freaky Tiki, at the end. Great group of people from all over the world and Caitlin, our guide, did a fantastic job.

Total highlight of a NYC visit - great fun! These guys know their business! - Absolutely outstanding experience! We took the tour on a Monday, not a very nightlife day, BUT Kendell and company made it one of our most memorable experiences in NYC with warm and welcoming attitude, true attention to everyone in the group, super friendly mood and party spirit. These guys know how to have fun, they do their business by putting heart and mind in it. Highly recommended activity for everyone willing to see true NYC nightlife, speak to real New York people and see some of the real bar gems in town. Thank you so much for this awesome evening!

I definitely would not have known to visit any of these places if it wasnt for this tour and our guide: August is friendly, energetic, and professional. He was very knowledgeable and obviously well-connected, and he was determined to show every tourist a good time. Ive been on plenty of tours where the guide tells everyone to introduce each other and make friends, but August actually has the charisma to make it happen, and it makes for a much better experience by the end. This was a lot of fun and I recommend it to anyone in the NYC area tourist or local. Take August's tour and you'll definitely get to see a variety of cool spots and have a fun night!

The tour guide was especially exceptional. He was charismatic, personable, hilarious, and attentive. He answered every question and tend to every concern. The tour guide made me see NY from a brand new perspective. My friend extremely enjoyed the tour. We're planning on taking another one, but only if we get the same tour guide. Five stars across the board!
