American Legacy Tours

The brewery and tunnel tour our company did with Miranda was fantastic! She was sooooo knowledgeable on the history of Cincinnati, the neighborhood, and the eras that have made the area what it is today. Miranda was enthusiastic and engaging - you would've thought she was born and raised there and owned it all! Couldn't recommend a better tour and guide for Northern Row and the tunnels!

We had a large group of various ages. Our guide kept us entertained with great stories about Cincinnati and early beer making in Cincinnati tunnels. Breslin aka Baconator gave us great details on how beer was made, stored and drank! Loved ending up at the oldest Catholic Church since they had live animals and the church was still decorated for Christmas. Thank you!

If you’re even remotely interested in history, beer, or just having a great time, American Legacy Tour Company’s brewery tour is an absolute must-do in Cincinnati! From start to finish, the experience was seamless, fascinating, and a ton of fun. Our guide, Miranda, was the heart and soul of the tour — incredibly knowledgeable, personable, and passionate about Cincinnati’s brewing heritage. You can tell right away that she truly loves what she does. Every stop came alive through their storytelling — from the 19th-century brewing giants that put Cincinnati on the map, to the hidden underground tunnels that make you feel like you’re stepping back in time. Whether you’re a local or visiting from out of town, this tour will give you a whole new appreciation for Cincinnati. It’s not just about beer; it’s about community, craftsmanship, and the city’s incredible resilience. Highly recommend this experience — and if you can, ask for Miranda! You’ll walk away with a deeper love for the Queen City (and maybe a new favorite brew!).

Took the Cincinnati Underground tour with Breslin (aka Baconator). She was super fun and gave a ton of great info on the history of the Over The Rhine and beer brewing in Cinci. Loved being able to go down to the crypt at the St Francis Church. Definitely recommend going during the week. We had a small group (8 people) so we got to spend more time in each area. We will definitely do another tour in the future.

This was such a cool experience! I didn’t even know it was a thing in Cincinnati! Our tour guide Breslin (aka Baconater) was AWESOME ! We had such a great time and really learned a lot. Highly recommend!

We went for the Hidden Brewery Caverns Tour with Harrison and he really delivered. We were running close on time and he even texted to make sure he didn’t get started without us. He was very knowledgeable, funny, and got us around safely. The tour was amazing. Loved seeing and learning so much about Cincy history and the breweries. It really was a great time!

Miranda was an incredible guide! Her knowledge and group engagement were very impressive! Plus a great sense of humor! Highly recommend this tour and hopefully you're lucky enough to get Miranda as your guide!

Miranda on the Ultimate Queen City Underground Tour was great! I enjoyed her sense of humor and breadth of knowledge. I’ve lived in the Greater Cincinnati area most of my life but learned all sorts of interesting things I never knew about my own hometown. Highly recommend!

Dean from American Legacy Tours gave us an amazing tour filled with history, humor, and great beer at the end! I strongly recommend this tour!

Underground Cincinnati tour to round out our trip. Actually really cool but also very worth it. We walked away smarter. At least about beer. And well, that seems to be what #Cincy cares about most. #PatsYourBags #DeezPats #Patsinnati #PatsAwayGames #PatsNation #Cincinatti #AmericanLegacyTours Highly recommend Harrison!!!!

We went on the Queen City Ultimate Underground Tour. About half of the tour is above ground telling the most interesting stories of the area and how the city grew. Including some of its dark history that had been forgotten for many years and then unearthed - literally - when building an underground parking garage in a downtown city park. They found out the park had been a grave yard that only MOST of the bodies had been removed from. It's a crazy story you will definitely want to hear for yourself if you are ever in the area. We visited a beautiful church and its crypt. The crypt floor was "tiled" with tombstones. The whole thing had the feel of an illuminati escapaded. Especially, when we accidentally got locked in the church. Our tour guide kept applogizing but seriously! How cool is that! Tours with a little upheaval are the best, especially when the adventure is unplanned and no one was hurt. We explored several of the underground tunnels left vacant and forgotten after they stopped using them to brew beer, in favor of modern technologies. Going down in the tunnels was super interesting and a little sketchy (which was part of the adventure and made it so fun). The "stairs" down, which is actually more like a ladder because they are steep, have their own crazy story which starts with a group of friends drinking and jackhammering a hole in a basement. Needless to say, the tour was a huge highlight of our trip and made me feel like Indiana Jones (at least a tiny bit). I saved the best for last. Our tour guide, Jordan, was AMAZING!!!! And deserves every single one of those exclamation points. You could tell he loved what he was doing and was super fascinated by the things he shared. He didn't just share facts, he shared stories and adventures from the past. It was like an old friend chatting with you, not a tour guide droning on. Jordan is the MVP of tour guides.

Took a dessert and wine tour with my wife. Viator had a better description than their site. I expected different desserts, but it still worked. 3 stops graeters for ice cream Al's popcorn for great popcorn to try and a macron store. final stop was revel wine bar and winery. We had a great tour guide, Madelin. Got some history of buildings and of Washington park. They also do ghost tours. I think it was 79 dollars for a 2+ hour tour.

We took the 'Hidden Caverns Tour.' Our expectations from the online description and the reality of the tour didn't match, but it was still enjoyable. What's described as "underground journey of the historic Linck brewery tunnels beneath the City" was more above ground than anything. We definitely learned the history of the Linck tunnels but we were a bit disappointed we weren't touring more underground - especially since it was a cold December day. The actual cavern portion is maybe 20-25 minutes of the 90 minute tour, and is pretty cool. It's amazing what people used to be able to build without today's technology! But again, we thought most of the tour would be in caverns and tunnels. I was completely picturing a whole other underground world where you take this tunnel and pop at this brewery, then back down and end up at another one. Learning how the caverns work, it makes sense that's not an underground world like that, but the description of the tour online should be tweaked to be more 'above ground tour about the underground.' If you're interested in the history of beer it is a good tour. Shout out to our tour guide Harrison. He was a wonderful guide and he made up for the disappointment of it not being completely underground. He had great knowledge and humor, made sure we could all hear him, pointed out other things that weren't on the typical agenda, and made it enjoyable and engaging.

We went on the Queen City Underground tour with Harrison yesterday and it was so much fun! Harrison was the best tour guide. He is very knowledgeable and passionate about his job. Highly recommend! We've already told several friends to book when they are in Cincinnati.

Miranda was a great guide. She knew about the history of Over The Rhine. There were so many breweries there, but few are left. I learned a lot and had a great time.

We absolutely loved our Nightmare on Elm Street walking tour with Miranda! So much creepy, scary fun to explore the tunnels and to hear the cool historical stories. We cannot explain why our flashlight kept flickering off and on in sync with the candle. Very scary and mysterious!

Great tour. Our tour guide Harrison was a wealth of knowledge. Definitely give it a try.

Best part of our trip!!!! We had a company meeting, and booked this tour! Miranda was our tour guide, and she was absolutely fabulous!!!! She really knows Cincinnati and really brought it to life for us. She gave us so much history, and is a great story teller! Hated to have it end, next time we come back the Ghost tour is definitely on our list! Thanks Miranda

Loved the ultimate underground tour. Michael is a knowledgeable and interesting guide. I would recommend this tour to anybody visiting Cincinnati. I'm already looking forward to our next tour

Just took this amazing, historical tour led by our tour guide Cade. He was funny and so informative. He answered all of our questions. It was a little tricky getting down into the caverns. There were skinny stairs that we had to go down a little sideways. So glad we did this.

cane is the best tour guide! His passion knowledge and love for Cinny is incredible. I learned so much about this city.

Miranda was awesome!! We are huge history buffs & her tour was GREAT!! Personal, relatable, funny, & genuine!!! She didn't make u feel like a job, just loves her job. SUPER IMPRESSED that she addressed everyone by their first names. Miranda deserves a raise y''all! lol. Seriously we WILL be back thanks to Miranda! Jen & Brad, Fort Wayne IN

Harrison is the best!!! Happy birthday! Cincy native and so knowledgeable!!!! A lovely historical and humor mix. Kept us engaged the whole time.

Had a day to spend in Cincinnati and discovered the Over the Rhine neighborhood. I wanted to know more about the history of the area and the Ultimate Queen City Underground tour was available. It was incredible and I enjoyed it well beyond my expectations...all thanks to our guide, Harrison. He was knowledgeable, funny, and kept the group engaged with an easy, approachable personality. I can't recommend this tour and Harrison enough.

Renee was a wonderful tour guide full of energy and knowledge! I loved our tour (Ultimate Queen City Underground tour) from start to finish. Would HIGHLY recommend if you're looking for something to do in OTR

We did the Cincinnati Underground Tour today as a company outting, and it was a blast! I'm born and raised in Cincinnati and had no idea about everything we learned! Fantastic experience, and Harrison, the tour guide was hilarious! So much fun, highly recommend it!

My family and I went on our tour with Miranda! This woman is fire! The absolute best tour guide you'll ever encounter. She's warm, funny, knowledgeable, and so clever. She took time after the tour to talk with my parents and gave my mother special attention. Her attention to detail and her thoughtful insights made the tour extraordinary.

I took the Ultimate Queen City Underground tour and loved it. Cade was an amazing guide. He loves his native city and it shines through in his tour. I never knew about the underground tunnels built for making lager.

Thanks to Cade for making this tour very enjoyable!! Loved it. The underground portion was fascinating.

My wife and I took the Underground Tour this afternoon and had a great time! Our guide Peggy was great. Very informative, funny and personable, she gave us an entertaining tour and took us to some very interesting locations. I would definitely recommend booking this tour. Next time we come to Cincinnati I think we will take one of the haunted tours.

We took the Underground tour with Cade and it was fantastic! He provided a lot of interesting information in an entertaining way and was very engaging. It was so cool to see the tunnels hidden under the city!

I recently did the Ultimate Queen City Underground Tour with a group of friends during a bachelorette weekend. We had a blast learning about the history of Cincinnati, particularly about the history of beer and brewing! It was so cool to go underground and see the brewery tunnels and learn how they were used previously, the process to restore them and what they hope to do as they restore them. Our tour guide, George, was a great storyteller, very knowledgeable and passionate and funny too! He gave us so much information during the two hour tour and answered any follow-up questions our group had. I would definitely recommend booking a tour with American Legacy Tours and I would recommend requesting George as your guide!

Harrison was very informative, open to questions and the pace was comfortable and easy to take in the surroundings while learning some history about the OTR. We would recommend to others.

Julie was an amazing tour guide! Her knowledge of the area, as well as Cincinnati in general, was exquisite. She was friendly and accommodating. Julie made everyone feel like they had been friends with her for years. If you take the tour, ask for Julie!

My friends and I took the Ultimate Queen City Underground Tour while in Cincinnati for work. The tour was extremely informative about the history of the city and some of the hidden secrets/underground world. We try to do tours in every city we pass through and this was definitely the most informative and interesting one I can remember. Our tour guide Zach was really funny and knowledgeable and definitely made the tour great. We are going to look into other tours with Legacy and would highly recommend!!

I just completed an underground cave tours with Harrison and he was very informative and great though American legacy tours. Great group! Kyle from Bellaire

I went with a friend and had a great time. Our tour guide Harrison was very knowledgeable and passionate about the history of Cincinnati. I would definitely go again!

We just completed the Hidden Brewery Caverns Tour with Laura. The tour was great, but the best part was Laura!!! She was so knowledgeable about the history of the city and the breweries of Cincinnati! Plus, she is fun!!! She had us laughing constantly! Highly recommend her and this tour!!

Miranda was so engaging and interesting. We loved every minute of our Gangster Tour thanks to her stories and company.

We had a lovely tour with Madilyn this afternoon! She was so sweet, funny, and knew all kinds of fun facts. The underground tour is definitely an interesting walk. We had a smaller group of all different ages and everyone seemed to love it (including my teenager). I'd highly recommend the queens city underground tour and look forward to trying the other tours on our next visit!

My husband and I are in town from MO to see a Cards game against the Reds and see the area attractions. The Underground tour was amazing with Julie! So fun and knowledgeable. Highly recommend. Wish we were here on a weekend to do the Wine and Dessert your. Thanks so much.

Miranda was incredible on the Hidden Caverns Tour! We had so much fun and learned a lot -- would 1000% recommend this tour to anyone who loves Cincinnati!

The tour was so much fun but it was even better because of our guide, Miranda. She was funny, knowledgeable & very impressive, she learned all of names prior to even starting the tour. Totally recommend this!

Cade gave a great tour today. Focused on Over the Rhine. Neat historical perspective of the city! Thank you.

We went in the Ultimate Queen City Tour this morning. Cade did a great job. It was interesting, entertaining, and personable.

Cade was awesome!! Super fun evening in the Cincinnati underground and I actually learned quite a bit I didn't know which surprised me because I grew up here. Loved it would definitely do a tour again.

Great tour of over the rhine , Harrison had some great stories and kept it fun. Beer caves where cool but wish we could have seen more

The Hidden Caverns Tour was one of the highlights of our Cincinnati staycation! Miranda was awesome and our 3 kids loved her and the tour. FYI, our kids love museums and history so learning about the history of OTR was fascinating to them. This was personally my second tour with the company and I've loved each one - if you are looking for something fun to do while visiting Cincinnati or if you are play tourist in your own hometown don't miss out!

My brother and I went on the Cavern Tour this afternoon, and had so much fun! We learned a lot about Cincinnati history during prohibition, too. At 90 minutes, it was just the right length and ended with a pint at a relatively new brewery. Miranda was engaging, informative, considerate, and quite funny. Next time you are in Cincinnati, make sure this your is on your list!

Miranda was such a fun, informative, and funny guide. I enjoyed her cheerful disposition and appreciated the way she remembered the names of some of the people in the group. I look forward to visiting Cincy again and taking another tour with American Legacy, and hopefully Miranda.

A good use of a couple hours, very interesting and we had a great guide. Dean was great. Lots of fun and very interesting.

Such a cool and insightful ultimate underground Cincy tour! The complimentary water at the beginning was great. The history of the city and beer/prohibition facts were interesting. George was an awesome guide-he was knowledgeable and funny. 2 hours was a perfect tour length and the beer tasting at the end was the Gerry on top. Would recommend 100%! Ps: the donut place next door to the meeting spot is worth a stop as well!

The tour was amazing. Miranda was fantastic and so much fun and engaging. The tour was spooky in all the best ways.

Miranda was our guide, and she did a fabulous job! She definitely loves what she does. We enjoyed hearing about the "Old Rhine" area of Cincinnati. The crypt below St. Francis Seraph was interesting. However, even better were the tunnels, if they can called that. The area was HUGE! If you get a chance to go on an "American Legacy" Tour, do it!!

Madelyn was amazing!! We had such a great time and learned so much. This was the first thing we did in the city, and we're so glad we did. We did the ultimate Queen City underground tour. There are some steep steps here and there as they describe on the website, but at 22 weeks pregnant, I was fine.

Dean was friendly and full of information that was both educational and entertaining. Started the tour at Northern Row Brewery and Distillery. Come get a tour and have a few beers before you leave Cincinnati.

Miranda gave me and my colleagues a tour this afternoon, and I'm not exaggerating when I say it was the best tour I've been on. It was the "Hidden Caverns" tour, and her personability, knowledge, and love of the subject matter and her job made it super fun and engaging. I 100% recommend to anyone interested in Cincinnati's brewing history, or just love fun tours!
