Our tour guide Camber was great! I learned so much. I enjoyed each of the bars we stopped at. We talked about authors ranging from Thomas Payne to Allen Ginsberg.

Camber and Kurt were excellent tour guides and we learnt so much about the literary figures making hay in the Village. I would 100% recommend this tour to anyone who wants to learn a little inside history to this part of New York.
