Description

Embark on a walking tour around Boston’s center and learn about the city's dark and violent past. See landmarks that are tied to the city’s organized crime history as you listen to stories of notorious gangsters from a local guide.

Meet your guide on the waterfront. As you stand across the street from where the "crime" that helped found this country, and made the harbor a little more caffeinated, turn your gaze to the courthouse. Here, one of America's most notorious mobsters run from the law ended.

Next, hear the baffling saga of Whitey Bulger, a criminal who had the FBI as muscle. Walking along the harbor, learn about pirate history before entering Boston's own Little Italy, the North End. Take in the smells and sights as you hear about what was once the largest robbery in American history.

Find out about two criminals who struck fear into the hearts of people living in Boston. End with a scammer, and another Revolutionary crime that changed history.
