    About this experience

    Our fun begins at the Cincinnati Lager House, where we'll have a flight of beers and take a short tour of the brewpub, before enjoying a freshly prepared brunch. Afterward, we catch a streetcar to Cincinnati's Over-the-Rhine neighborhood, looking for relics of the city's brewing past, both large and small, often hidden in plain sight. We'll share stories of not only the breweries that helped to build the Queen City, but also the saloons where thirsty citizens gathered every day. Along the way, we'll visit the historic underground lagering cellars of the the Park Brewery, open for the first time to visitors in many years and only available through this tour! After our underground exploration, the tour stops in for a pint at the Lackman Bar, located at a pre-Prohibition saloon site, with many local favorites on tap. Finally, we'll catch the streetcar and head back to the Cincinnati Lager House. A flight of beers, brunch entree, and a pint at the Lackman Bar are included with the tour.

    Skip this one - poorly organized, needs technology

    This tour is in desperate need of Technology. Asked to meet at 10:45 at Moerlein Lager house. Moerlein doesn't open until 11 - so impossible to do. Starts the tour off on the wrong foot. So we get the first flight of beer and order our brunch and instead of sitting and enjoying, we walked around the brewery and learned its history. By the time we got back to our seats our beer was warm AND our food was cold. Our guide kept saying, I need to get you back before you food gets cold and yet he didn't do it. He clearly knows his history AND a text to him from the server would have gone a long way to make it better. In addition, he needed a small mic so that everyone could hear. The restaurant was crowded. Finally, there was only one other stop for beer and the tour ended an hour early. My advice - skip this one.

    Response from the operator: We appreciate your feedback and will certainly look into the issues that you have brought up. This is not the way this tour is normally run and I will make sure that our tour guide sees your review in order to make the necessary improvements. We apologize that you didn't get the experience you were looking for and since things were cut short, we would certainly be willing to extend to you some complementary tickets on one of our other brewing history tours for later in the summer. Please feel free to reach out to us at tours@brewingheritagetrail.org and we can make those arrangements.

    Sunday Funday in Cincinnati

    Excellent tour guide and loved the variety of stops. The guide was exceptional with his knowledge of the history of Cincinnati. He engaged the entire crowd and the food and beer at Moerlein was excellent.

    Response from the operator: Fantastic! Thanks for taking a tour with us and I'll be sure to pass along the compliment to your tour guide!

    Cellars and Saloons Sunday Brunch Tour in Cincinnati: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cincinnati.

    How much does Cellars and Saloons Sunday Brunch Tour in Cincinnati cost?

    +

    Prices start at $79 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cincinnati usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Cellars and Saloons Sunday Brunch Tour in Cincinnati take?

    +

    Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Cincinnati is not rushed.

    Is Cellars and Saloons Sunday Brunch Tour in Cincinnati worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cincinnati, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Cellars and Saloons Sunday Brunch Tour in Cincinnati?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Cellars and Saloons Sunday Brunch Tour in Cincinnati suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Cellars and Saloons Sunday Brunch Tour in Cincinnati?

    +

    Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cincinnati can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cincinnati and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Cellars and Saloons Sunday Brunch Tour in Cincinnati start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Cincinnati within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Cincinnati?

    +

    Cincinnati tours cover Over-the-Rhine architecture and food, brewery heritage and lagering tunnels, Ohio River sightseeing cruises and Underground Railroad Freedom Center visits. On Outty we rank every Cincinnati experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hidden Brewery Caverns Tour in Cincinnati with Beer Tasting, Ultimate Queen City Underground Tour, Top 10 Sites + Bites of Cincinnati Tour with Riverside Food Tours. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Cincinnati?

    +

    April to June and September to October. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Cincinnati?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
