New York – 5 Borough Pub Crawl with Andres in NYC

Whether you’ve just landed in the U.S. or you’ve been here for years, come explore New York City the fun way—one drink in each borough. We’ll ride ferries and subways, try a few local spots, and give everyone a rare excuse to visit the less‑frequented corners of the city. It’s social, it’s speedy, and it’s very New York.

What to Bring

• Yourself, friends, and fam (21+ to drink)
• Comfortable walking shoes and weather‑appropriate clothing
• A charged MetroCard/OMNY and ferry fare
• Valid ID for bar entry

Cost

This is a pay‑your‑own‑way day. You’re responsible for subway and ferry fares, plus any food and drinks.
