Gangster interactions became an everyday occurrence, with gangland shootings dominating news headlines from Chicago’s finest hotels, speakeasies, and mysterious sidewalks.

Kris was a phenomenal tour guide! He's a fast talker but projects his voice and enunciates clearly! He packed so much history into this walking tour, with some great jokes sprinkled throughout. Bring your walking shoes, because you'll cover some distance, but don't fret about being left behind - Kris did a great job making sure we kept the group together through the busy streets. There's also a 15 minute bathroom break at a gorgeous location with some fun exploration opportunities inside. I highly recommend this tour, and I highly recommend Kris!

This was a great tour. Chris K. Or Kris with a K was awesome. I feel like I know a little bit more about Chicago than when I started the tour.

I did this tour on Tuesday morning and I could not recommend it more! I didn't know most of the history about the darker side of Chicago that was shared.Avery did a phenomenal job as the tour guide. He was informative, enthusiastic, concise and engaging in his conversations. I absolutely recommend this tour...

Taka did our gangsters and ghost tour. She was very informative and gave us facts about Chicago that we have never heard before. I would definitely recommend this tour on your visit to the city.

Our first time to Chicago and we were in town only for the weekend. We packed in as many things as we could in the short time and this tour made the top of the list! Kris was an amazing story teller and super enthusiastic. Doing the last tour of the night and walking the streets with the dark sky definitely added to the experience. I would 100% do it again next time we were in the city and will recommend the tour to anyone looking for an awesome evening!

really detailed, realistic stories. Highly recommend Connor as a tour guide - he really knew what he was talking about and put some jokes in as well. I felt it was more gangster heavy than ghosts, but I enjoyed the gangster stories more. Highly recommend!

My friend and I did this tour with Sarah as our guide and she was fabulous. She took us to many different places to see exactly where all the shenanigans took place with AL Capone and his so called friends and enemies. Also where other significant events in Chicago's past had taken place. Definitely worth your time and money.

Our tour leader Ty was thoroughly entertaining and engaging! I loved hearing the lesser known stories about Chicago’s troubled history. Best done at night, great way to end a full day of sightseeing.

The tour was great, we loved listening to stories about gangsters, serial killers and more. Our guide was Ty. He was very fun and clear during the whole tour. He cared about the whole group while crossing streets. English is not our native language and we understood him very well. We do recommend the tour!

Loved this tour. Baylor was our guide and she was awesome. She is a great storyteller and answered all of our questions. I totally recommend this tour if you want to learn more about Al Capone and the history of Chicago. You will see cool architecture and sites along the way. The tour was a little light on ghost stories but the mobsters portion more than made up for it. Thank you!
