What To Expect

Greenwich Village

Local actors will take you on a fascinating walking tour of several Greenwich Village bars that are rich with literary history. Inside each bar, you’ll relax and have time for a drink as your tour guides weave fantastic tales of the history of the establishment and of some of the greatest authors who have hung out, drank and written there- writers who helped shape both the village and the world. Along the way you’ll stop at unique sites that are literary, historical, or alcoholic in nature. Add some passionate recitations, charmingly dashing guides, and a buttload* of wit – this is a tour not to miss. *is an actual form of measurement for alcohol. 1 butt load = 126 gallons or 2 hogshead

The tour took in 3 pubs but there was also a fair bit of walking around the west village also, so the tour would be suitable even if you were more interested in a sightseeing tour than the pub part. It was very interesting to learn about the history of the area and to have a look around the neighbourhood assisted by someone who knew it well. Highly recommended!

Tour guide Rob was very friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely excited about the whole tour. Would do another tour with him any time.

Our tour guide Camber was great! I learned so much. I enjoyed each of the bars we stopped at. We talked about authors ranging from Thomas Payne to Allen Ginsberg.
