Queen City Underground

The tour gives a fascinating look at the history of the OTR neighborhood. We moved away from Cincinnati in 2022 before the OTR revitalization effort started. Never would I have guess we would be going on such an interesting tour and having a wonderful meal after the tour in this area. So good to see this progress. Our tour guide was Laura and while she gave useful historical facts she definitely left us with less than a hospitable feeling and that it was a bit of a drag to be giving the same tour over and over. Maybe this is the norm or maybe she was having an off day but if you are busking for tips at the tour it is a good idea to pretend to enjoy your job.Still glad we did the tour and it left us wanting for even more information on the OTR area.

We took the Ultimate Underground Queen City tour, with Linda on the day the Keys went missing. We had a lovely walk, listening to the history of the bars and breweries of the Queen's City. I adore hearing the old stories about the cities I visit and this one, is one of the better tours I've been on.Linda clearly LOVES leading the tours, She knows what she's talking about and no question threw her. She had a great sense of humor and even let us know about other tours for later in the evening. I will take the other tours that you have in the future when I visit for longer times. These are great!

Miranda knocked it out of the park! She was funny, knowledgable, let us know the rules, kept us safe, all while teaching us random facts about Cincinnati. The stories I repeated multiple times include the dumping out of chamber pots and how this relates to not opening your umbrellas inside the house and why men historically stood on the side closest to the road. I loved all the details of the Germans in the area, completely loved the 30 foot underground tunnels, so cool during the hot day and so fun to imagine how life was like when this was deemed necessary in order to brew beer. Highly recommended!

What an incredible tour by Julie. We've lived in Cincinnati for 23 years and learned so much about this city we never knew. Just her enthusiasm talking about the city's history was quite intoxicating . The history of brewing and the underground caverns are impressive. This is a tour that I wouldn't mind if it last an extra hour of two. Even thought the tour is 2 hours, it went by so very fast as we just kept moving and leaving about how Cincinnati played a vital roll in beer manufacturing.

Super fun! Full of information and fun facts. Tour guide (Miranda) was adorable, funny and very knowledgeable. Walked about a total of two blocks. Saw cute local art, fun buildings. The crypt was absolutely interesting with their headstones. Then the distillery was amazing. The walk through and facts were just amazing. I don't think it's appropriate for small children. Not creepy at all but just felt like the underground part of the tour was a little steep for small children maybe 5 and under.

Miranda, Munchkin or the "Blond Aussie Chick"(as she was described by a previous reviewer)did a fabulous job showing us the Over The Rhine area of Cincinnati. Fun facts and historical tidbits made this tour so enjoyable. She had a wonderful personality and and a great relationship with people(we tourists and many locals)that she interacted with during the tour. Just by listening to and watching her, you could tell that she enjoyed doing this and loved sharing her knowledge of the city. If we return to Cincinnati we will definitely do another tour and most definitely ask for Miranda!

This tour was so informative of the Queen city! Our tour guide, Miranda the crazy little Australian in the photo below,had us laughing all the way through the tour with her humor and insight. It was a delightful walk through history and a beautiful day at that!!

Very Informative! Tracy our guide was excellent! She kept the pace really well yet an easy walk for older visitors. Her side story's were great and she added a very personal edge to the tour! I'm so glad we took the tour and would recommend it highly.

Great tour with Cade as a guide. Lagering tunnels are fascinating and OTR sites are interesting Anna's informative. Worth a visit!

We've been on vacation for a week and this was the best tour we have been on. Miranda was knowledgeable, funny, engaging and really seemed to enjoy her job. She even remembered our names. We learned a lot about the area and the tunnels. I highly recommend this tour.
