Over & Under the Rhine Tour

Overview

Over-the-Rhine is a historic neighborhood comprised of amazing structures both above and below the ground. Come and explore with us as we walk (approx. one mile total) and ride the streetcar to major topside landmarks such as Findlay Market, Music Hall, Washington Park, and the location of the Miam-Erie Canal. We'll also learn about it's underground history as we stop by several places from above, including the pre-Prohibition lagering facility of the Lafayette Brewery and Cincinnati's abandoned subway system below Central Parkway. Then we'll go three stories underground, where the Gerke Brewery fermented and cold-stored their beer dating back to the 1850s. This requires guests to traverse a series of steep stairs and is not recommended for young children or those who have difficulty with stairs, but anyone in attendance is welcome to remain topside. Our journey concludes at a local taproom, where we'll have a round of pints, just a few blocks away from our starting point.

Historical facts very interesting tour guide well educated with Cincinnati history. The underground was very weak...advertisement made the tunnels portion of tour grandeur then it was. Almost a tease compared to other tours

Hi Joann, thanks for taking a tour with us and for providing feedback on your experience. I'm sorry to see the underground cellar did not meet your expectations on this neighborhood tour, but I'm glad that our guide did a great job in providing information about the city's history. I'll be sure to pass along your compliment to them.
