Newport Gangster Tour: A Historical Walking Tour
May 1, 2010 - November 1, 2010

Before there was Las Vegas...there was Newport, Kentucky.  Stroll along "8 Blocks of Villainy" on this guided tour and learn about Newport's infamous past as the premier gaming destination in the U.S.  See the buildings where gangsters made their millions, gamblers lost their lives, and ladies of the night earned their living. See the buildings that housed casinos, brothels and speakeasies and explore Newport's connection to some of the most infamous crime figures in our country's history.

 

Tickets are $15 per person (cash only) or can be purchased in advance online with a credit card. Tours are on Saturdays -- see the event website for tour schedules.  A 'sister' tour in downtown Cincinnati "Queen City Underground: Bosses, Breweries & Burials" is also offered (see event website for more information).
