Our Downtown Ithaca Craft Beverage Tour is a narrated, guided tour of the heart of Ithaca. You will visit four local businesses, sampling alcoholic libations at each. Sip craft beers, Finger Lakes wines, artisan ciders, and a cocktail crafted with local spirits, adding up to about two drinks. Along the way, enjoy delicious local food tastings paired with each beverage.

Accompanying these scrumptious samplings you’ll be treated to insights about each establishment – all neighborhood favorites with a unique story and setting.

The tour guide never showed up. The phone number we were given to contact the tour guide was not in service. I requested a refund from Viator and am still waiting for it to be processed.

This is a fun tour and great way to get to know a little more about Ithaca. We live here in Ithaca and we’re still introduced to a couple new and unique restaurants and learned some fun history about our city.
Fun bar crawl!

Sarah is sweet and full of info on the history of craft beer, cocktails and the Ithaca restaurant and bar scene. I was visiting with my daughter who is attending vet school here and we discovered some new little gems we had not been to before. We had a fun afternoon and look forward to trying one of the other tours they offer next time.
