Kristina was absolutely amazing
We will be looking for other tours that she does and probably do this tour again with her. She was funny, engaging, inclusive, and knowledgeable of every place, drink, and area we went too. There is not an extreme amount of walking involved so do not let that deter you.

We were a group of 4…two sixty year olds with two twenty something’s. We ALL thought this tour, lead by Kristina, was wonderful! She included great historical elements of the time period and corresponding cocktails. She provided cocktail elements from which we selected the unknown drink (we all liked what we selected, but if we didn’t like the drink we chose, she would have switched to something else.) Our tour was about 3 hours with limited walking. Excellent!
