5.00Even though I have back issues this was a relatively easy tour. Are tour guide Kevin was informative entertaining and overall made it a very relaxed enjoyable walking tour. My favorite part was going into St Francis and the wooden pews that were originally part of the building. You could definitely field energy I would recommend for an easy enjoyable afternoon. There's definitely lots of restaurants nearby different options and it on a nice day it's just a very nice thing to do

5.00Excellent tour! Josh was a great guide, I could tell he was passionate about Cincinnati history. I enjoyed the laid-back nature of the tour and Josh's knowledge. Of course, the coolest part was underground, and it was definitely worth it.

5.00Our tour guide, Miranda, was easy to understand, funny, and knowledgeable. The tour office/meeting place was easy to find and right next to a parking garage and lots of restaurants. The tour was much better than I expected and I learned a LOT even though I'm a "local".
