New York City Mafia and Local Food Tour led by NYPD Guides

New York City, USA

Full description

Begins 5:15PM. Why join us? We LIVED this firsthand. Born & raised in Little Italy - or cops who worked the streets here - both active and retired/ NYPD Officers. Our “walk with stories” breaks the typical tour company mold of boring facts, repetitive "stops" & irrelevant dates replaced with personal life experiences. Walk the very streets where the mafia strolled with a real resident and meet other locals along the way. Plus food included is equivalent to a full 3 course dinner! Growing up witnessing some of New York’s infamous families and having consulted for TV and major films makes this a unique experience no other company can offer. Beginning at a famous Mafia "Red Sauce Joint" as seen in Soprano's and "Get Gotti" this experience winds through the East Village & Little Italy visiting notorious Mafia and Crime locations sharing personal true crime stories and eating amazing food from the neighborhood. Rated #1 "Things to do in New York" Recently featured in the Washington Post

Would go again

Tbh: I’m a tough grader, so you need to be really special to get a 5. I’m giving this experience a 4. Would I recommend to a friend yes, could it be improved - sure. Pros: good stories, good food and an interesting walk. Things that could be improved: the guide was newish and it showed a few times - but given a little more practice he’s going to be great and provided an interesting as an actual retired detective showing us streets he once worker
