𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗕𝗮𝗿 𝗖𝗿𝗮𝘄𝗹 𝗨𝗦𝗔:
We’ve been doing events (bar crawls &amp; festivals) since 2015 in over 20 cities. What separates us from the other crawl companies is that we are the creators of food &amp; booze events such as our famous Taco &amp; Tequila Crawl and our Boozy Brunch Crawl that date back to 2018-2019 when we took it nationwide. There may be others out there trying to imitate the events but be sure our event is the only crawl that includes tacos in every ticket type, VIP experience, &amp; so much more. Check our Facebook &amp; Google reviews for confirmation on just how much value and fun we bring.
