Overview

Spend three hours exploring a curated list of four of Minneapolis’ best bars. We won’t just be drinking there, we’ll be learning the storey of the bar, meeting the bartender, and trying a new drink.

Once you’re settled in with your drink, I’ll have a storey to share with you about what helped make this fascinating city what it is today.

The tour’s unnamed guest star is YOU. One third drinking, one third history and one third banter make this a thirst-quenching, educational, and social experience that has a little something for everybody.

It was just my husband and I. Our tour guide was knowledgeable, we got to try lots of different local spots we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. I would 100% recommend

We did a mid-afternoon tour with Dan as our guide. He made the experience fun and interesting, as he was full of knowledge about the area we walked. He knew employees at each stop, which created more conversation and insights into the various establishments visited. A great experience overall!

Had a great tour with Dan! He was very engaging with the group as well as taking the time to get to know everyone individually. Dan was a wealth of knowledge on places we visitors as well as the city. The tour took us to (4) different types of bars which was great because it was a different vibe at each place. Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone regardless if you are local (we were) or someone from out of town.

Good tour! Our tour guide was Colin. He was very personable and knowledgeable about the city. We were glad we took the tour on the first day of our trip…as he suggested more things to do while we were in the city. Since this was the walking bar tour, he first asked us if we had any preference on what type of bar and alcohol we tended to prefer. Then he customized it from there since there were only 2 of us on the tour (3 counting Colin). Probably not a possibility with larger groups of strangers. Being that it was just my boyfriend and I…it didn’t feel awkward. He was easy with conversation and knew a little bit about a lot of topics.

This tour was fantastic! Dan was such an informative tour guide with clear passion and knowledge of the city. Lots of cool local spots were highlighted on the tour and we even got to speak with the owner/creators at some spots adding to the value of the tour. The drinks at each spot were delicious and provided variety. Definitely worth taking the time to go on this tour!
