Why take this tour?
Go back in time on the Gangsters and Ghosts tour to hear about Chicago in the roaring 1920’s! See former gangster hangouts and haunted places like Congress Hotel, Palmer House, and Death Alley.
We proudly host a 2-hour, 1.5-mile walking guided tour that explores the gangsters and ghosts of Chicago’s past in the area of “The Loop.” Known as the vice district during the 1920s and 30s shady partying, deal-making, and threats, riddled with speakeasy saloons, secret underground tunnels used by bootleggers, and the famous Al Capone, The Loop is where the understanding and depiction of the 20th century gangster began.
