In an industry filled with clowns, Alex’s Tours manages to be the biggest joke of all. I took the East Village Speakeasy tour before going on to work with the company and it’s the stupidest decision I’ve made in my seven years of tour guiding. In a best case scenario, you’ll get the founder who will mumble his way through remembering what he saw in the Ken Burns prohibition documentary. In a worst case scenario, you’ll get someone who hasn’t been shadowed and was given a jumbled script with no structure that includes a sizable chunk just describing what mash distilleries are. Riveting stuff from a man who refuses to pay his employees. On top of that, guides will sometimes get next to no notice that two of the stops are closed and you have to learn two new bars on the spot. If you’re a tour guide, avoid this company like the plague. There are better paying companies that aren’t going to waste your weekends for $100. If you’re a guest, you can just google these places (Please Don’t Tell, Barbershop, and The Back Room) and go yourself instead of enabling a pathological liar.
