 Rise and Fall of the American Mafia Walking Tour
1:00 PM (Premingle)
1:30 PM: Tour Begins 

Join us as the city comes alive to learn about The Rise and Fall of the American Mafia. This tour focuses mostly on the 20th century arc of Organized Crime in America, specifically anchored by the Five Families of New York. A secret society that began in the 1900’s, expanded massively in the 1920’s, got organized and flourished from the 30’s through the 50’s and experienced a slow and ugly decline through the last decades of the century. This premium tour goes from the East Village down to Little Italy and tells the tale of Lucky Luciano’s ruthless rise to power, his affiliation with other notorious criminals such as Carlo Gambino, Vito Genovese and Meyer Lansky. The tour stops outside the tenements, cafés, restaurants, social clubs, funeral homes and even alleyways where it all happened, in an epic tale that spans 100 years and across the Atlantic and back while never leaving the vibrant streets of New York.
