Challenge everything you know about organized crime in America. This popular and exciting walking tour through Little Italy explores the former social clubs homes and haunts of some of the most influential 20th century mobsters while uncovering the truth behind many Mafia legends.

We also discuss the Italian immigrant experience and the social political and economical conditions which allowed organized gangsterism to thrive in the slums of New York City by the turn of the century.
