Never would I have guess we would be going on such an interesting tour and having a wonderful meal after the tour in this area. So good to see this progress. Our tour guide was Laura and while she gave useful historical facts she definitely left us with less than a hospitable feeling and that it was a bit of a drag to be giving the same tour over and over. Maybe this is the norm or maybe she was having an off day but if you are busking for tips at the tour it is a good idea to pretend to enjoy your job. Still glad we did the tour and it left us wanting for even more information on the OTR area.

I adore hearing the old stories about the cities I visit and this one, is one of the better tours I've been on. Linda clearly LOVES leading the tours, She knows what she's talking about and no question threw her. She had a great sense of humor and even let us know about other tours for later in the evening. I will take the other tours that you have in the future when I visit for longer times. These are great!

Did you know Cincinnati is home to the World's Largest Unfinished Subway System?…read more In 1916, Cincinnatians had a dream: to relieve traffic congestion and improve health concerns by creating a rapid transit system underneath present day Central Parkway. Originally part of the Miami-Erie Canal, the unused waterway was drained, dug out by horse-and-plow, then filled in with concrete. The plan was to create a 16-mile loop of mass transit around the city, stretching from Race Street at Central Parkway, to Clifton, Norwood, Oakley, then back Downtown. The project progressed for ten years then came to a halt after a change in political leaders and financial troubles. The completed portion included six stations along a route spanning from Downtown to Norwood. In 1928, the Cincinnati Subway project was officially abandoned. Over the years, people tried to revive the subway system as well as proposing other uses for it, such as: a wine cellar, a mushroom farm, an aeronautic wind tunnel, and an entertainment venue similar to Underground Atlanta. The Cincinnati Subway is still in tact today. Two miles of tunnels are located underneath Central Parkway between Race Street to just north of the Western Hills Viaduct. Three of the stations remain; the other three were demolished in the 1950s to make way for I-75. While the concrete structure is complete, no rails, electricity, or trains were ever installed. The structure itself is in good condition, especially for being almost 100 years old. While it is off-limits to the public, Cincinnati Museum Center gives an annual tour of the subway in May; an excellent opportunity to go exploring in our city's deepest secret. The tunnels have the potential to be used for modern-day rail transit, with a few improvements, of course.

One of my favorite experiences in Cincinnati!! As someone who's always been obsessed with signage…read moreand neon, it was a dream come true for me to visit. Someday I'd love to go to the museum in Vegas and compare. I really wanted to take neon classes here, but didn't get the chance to - neon classes are generally super rare from what I can tell. If you have interest at all, you should take classes!! The love, care and knowledge put into this museum is really obvious. I just wish it was larger and had even more signs :) Loved the "city" concept as a display. I'll think of the sign museum fondly when I remember Cincinnati!

Great experience at the sign museum on our first ever trip to Cincinnati. We had spent way longer…read morethan expected browsing at Jungle Jim's and hurried our way over to the sign museum with an hour to spare. The employee let us know they closed in an hour, but we should still have enough time (an hour was the perfect amount of time for us to read and look at all the signs). It's priced reasonably enough that I would pay to go back and see it again if I wanted. Tons of signage (haha) to read about the signs. A couple of them had QR codes you could scan to read more about. The history of the sign industry was really cool to learn about, and seeing them lit up and in action was even better. I loved the way the museum was styled and designed, making it look like you're walking down a bustling street complete with storefronts, street lamps, and even a couple fire hydrants. If you're a fan of vintage artifacts and big flashing signs, then this is the place to visit!

I pinky promised this was not that. And it didn't disappoint! Our guide was great and was very knowledgeable on the history and hauntings of the city.

At the end we even got to try out EMF Readers - I would have rather had another story or two, but it was a neat experience. Definitely check it out if you are in the area.

Definitely excited to check out some of the bars & restaurants he showed us on the tour. The guide was so entertaining & knowledgeable. He did a wonderful job at talking respectfully and keeping the humor to a minimum when sharing sad stories, while simultaneously keeping the whole tour fun & light-hearted.

Now, of course the rooms (large booths) are set up for humans, so the decor is geared to being able to sit in a high chair or against a background that is higher up, and with our dogs, the shots are geared more to being on the floor, but that didn't matter - we got some great pics and had such a fun time! Rooms we had were Barbie/shopping , Pushing P, Boxing, School, Records, Posh, Space, Smileys, and, my favorite, Milk & Cereal. I took about 300 pics to sort through, ha! The pics I've added here are just some from my cell; I can't wait to see what we get back from PawztoPose! #HuskyMix #ReviewsByRL

We bought this for our parents for their christmas gift and were suprised to see we were going on a school bus rather than the party bus that was pictured, it wasnt cleaned.

The bus driver also went down a few wrong way roads and took some wrong turns which was concerning. the beer and food options were good at each stop.
