About
The group will meet our host in Midtown for a group introduction and to go over the itinerary for the evening. The bringing together of people from all over the world and diving into New York after dark is the magic of this social experience.
We head out to visit at least three diverse nightlife venues each in a different genre: historic bars, chic cocktail lounges, speakeasies, and a majestic rooftop with panoramic views.
Each night is specifically curated based on the best of what is going on in the NYC nightlife scene. Our walks are short between stops and rooftops are heated and enclosed so we are comfortable in any weather. By the end of the evening (which can last to the early hours of the morning if you choose) you will have made some new friends and had a memorable, authentic night out on the town in the Big Apple!
