Great experience!

Our guide RYAN was THE BEST!!! It was our son’s graduation from NYU, and his birthday. We had 3 tourists, and 5 NYC residents. I was nervous because the speakeasy tour was the only thing I had planned for graduation/birthday night. . . The tour was everything I needed it to be AND MORE!!! Not hokey! Not “touristy”. A tour that even thoroughly impressed the locals! We had the BEST TIME!!! Thank you, Ryan!!!! 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻. We hope we got your part!

Response from ViatorMay 22, 2026

We are glad you enjoyed the experience. We agree that Ryan is great and also hope he gets the part. All of our hosts/storytellers are performers so we look forward to losing them to Broadway stardom some day soon!

Pretty cool

Julian was really cool guy, gonna miss him a lot. Even though he’s a jags fan he really seems like a good guy. Very rare for jags fans.
