American Legacy Tours — Attraction in Cincinnati

Miranda was our guide and made the whole experience wonderful. She is so charming and delightful. We had a small group of two couples(didn’t know each other). That can feel awkward but Miranda made everyone feel included and welcome. She had so much knowledge of Cincinnati’s history and knew so many fun facts that we can now share with our friends to sound like some BA history buffs ourselves. We explored St. Francis and underground brewery tunnels under OTR. After the tour, Miranda suggested some great breweries and restaurants to try. If you like history at all and want to find a really fun way to explore the city all while being entertained by a wonderful guide, book yourself a tour. Update: we got to go on a second tour and this time bring our teenagers and family from Michigan that was visiting. We were late due to traffic/parking issues and it was totally our fault. I was a panicked mess when I got there and lo and behold it was my friend Miranda that checked us in and reassured that everything was all good. She took it upon herself to wait for the rest of the party to park and told our guide that she would catch us up to them. She is just lovely and she caught us up on the history we might have missed at the beginning of the tour. She got us with our guide for this tour named Harrison. He was also an amazing guide and had a lot of great history to share during the rest of the tour. His sense of humor is also great and we also have to mention the hair😁 We enjoyed this second tour just as much and my family loved it as well. This was the hidden caverns tour this time so we got to see different caverns and end up at northern row taproom. We got to try some of their beers and learn even a little bit more history there from Harrison. Thank you for another great...

Okay, first off: if you’re looking for a tour where you don’t need to break a sweat or spend hours wandering aimlessly—this is it. It’s a short walk (thankfully), leading you straight to some hidden caverns, which were cooler than finding a secret passage in your own basement.

The tour was like a fun blend of “Wow, that’s neat!” and “I had no idea I needed to know that!” But here’s the real highlight—Miranda. She wasn’t just a tour guide, she was a force of nature. Honestly, I think she might have a PhD in Cincinnati history and a minor in making it fun. We’ve been here a couple of years but were looking to dive deeper into our local history, and Miranda had just the knowledge to fill that gap.

The tour starts and ends at a brewery, so you can conveniently sip while learning about the town’s past—just like history was meant to be taught. After finishing this tour, we didn’t want to stop getting to know our local history, so we stuck with the "staycation" vibe and hit up Willow Run Bourbon Tasting, where we were more than happy to give a shout-out to our favorite tour guide, Miranda.

10/10, would highly recommend for anyone—whether you’re a local or a confused tourist trying to make sense of the Midwest. And if you want your night to get even spookier, we’ll definitely be back for the haunted tour.

A big shout-out to Miranda—keep making history fun, and please don’t stop...

Harrison was a great tour guide. From start to finish he was there to help out. We were kinda struggling to find the brewery parking lot & running a little behind because of it. He had called to make sure we found our way so we wouldn’t miss out on our tour. He was very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. I even took a tumble down one of the side walks we were on & Harrison had a first aid kit on hand If I needed it which was a great way to be prepared for sure. Beer caves were so cool to see and the history of the city was also super neat. If you’re a beer lover then this tour is for sure for you. My only 2 complaints were, when we were down in the caves Harrison had told us about a beer called the “Missing Linck” that was made from some the same yeast strain that was down in the caves. And it was at urban artifact brewery. But when we went to the brewery they didn’t have it & untapped said they no longer brew it. Which isn’t Harrison’s fault by any means but it was still a bummer. My other complaint was with the verbiage of the ticket description. The ticket said our tour would end with a “beer tasting” at northern row brewery and it in fact was not a “tasting” it was a single beer redeemed by a wooden nickel. Which was fine but I was expecting what ticket described and it was not what we got. But other then that it was a...
