We took the Scandalous Cocktail tour. While the history was good about the surrounding areas as we walked, no history about the drinks. At a couple of the venues it kinda felt like we "crashed the party" as we just squeezed into the bar to get a drink. Nice guide, just more history surrounding the "Scandalous drinks".

We showed up and no one was at the meeting point. For 10 minutes we walked around double checking the address. We got. Call 10 minutes after meeting time saying it was canceled.

Tour guide never showed up. Heard this was not the first time. Don’t waste your money or time. Really disappointed.
