About this tour

Discover Cincinnati on a self-guided walking tour that puts the city’s stories and riverfront scenery at your pace. Starting outside the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center, follow GPS directions south toward Smale Riverfront Park and through the revitalized downtown.

As you walk, hear about Cincinnati’s frontier beginnings and its reputation as a city of firsts. The route takes you past the John A. Roebling Suspension Bridge and the Banks, then into the urban core. Audio, maps, and geodata are available offline, and the tour works on Android and iOS. You can use it at your own pace, with lifetime access to the English-language tour and its virtual option. Attractions are viewed along the route rather than visited with dedicated stops, so bring your own smartphone and headphones.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 3.00 from 1 review. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Cincinnati
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.0.
