Overview

Hey everyone, I'm Jonathan & I enjoy the off-the-beaten-path bars & good deals! I developed this bar-crawl to counter the stereo-typical party-bus nightclub-crawl where you're herded on a bus with 50+ amateurs being served "free seltzers" and cheap vodka drinks. This is a walking experience to the lesser-known hidden gems, the ones most tourist miss if venturing alone. I've done bar-crawls around the world and most are 3 or 4 spots only, you wait to get in, wait to sit, wait long for overpriced mediocre drinks & they're not really special or hidden.

This is a mix of several bars. Some are cheap, some have happy hours, some are divey or hidden spots that most people walk right by. Drinks not included which means you can budget what you wanna spend & decide what you want to drink rather than being forced a specific menu and price.

All the bars are walking distance. Some are to-go spots, some we can sit & relax. The goal is to have fun & introduce you to something unknown!

What's included

  • Photos: I can take them on your phone so you have them instantly
  • Licensed, Certified & Insured Guide & Experience Host
  • Total Tab Freedom: Skip overpriced, watered-down party buses. Save cash with drink deals early on, then choose premium custom cocktails at hidden speakeasies. Spend exactly what you want.
  • This is a 100% authentic walking crawl (mostly indoors) utilizing resort shortcuts. No slow party buses or traffic jams.
  • Drinks not included - after taes and commissions, I only get like hafl the money you pay and I have to buy my own drinks. Most tours I lose money.

What to expect

  1. The Las Vegas Strip
    1h
    First 3-5 spots are your cheap drink spots. Meetup spot is a to-go situation. Yes we can walk and drink in piblic. First two bars are the last little dive bars on the Strip with $2-$5 beers, $4 mixed drinks, and cheap but good food. Last of Vegas dive bar history. We'll also pass by other happy hours spots with low prices like $7 frozen drinks, $6 drinks, $5 beer. Third spot is one of the funniest bars everyone loves. Close quarters, tight knit, flair bartenders, you can meet anyone here and its buy one get one. This is when things really get going!
  2. The Las Vegas Strip
    2h
    Next 3 bars are speakeasies. Some will be open or closed, depending on day and time you book. One is a 19th century bar with live music, hiding behind a vintage barbershop. Another is a hidden tequila and nachos bar under an exit sign. Third is a hidden winter wonderland. Lastly, we'll end at a rooftop but most don't make it to the end!
