About this experience
Why our experience over all others? We LIVED this firsthand. We are Born and raised in Little Italy or worked in the area as NYPD Officers. We go to places the tour companies don't know exist and see things often missed while meeting locals along the way. I will appear in the Prime Video documentary "Life After Goodfellas” release to be on 35th anniversary of the film. Start with Behind the scenes at John's of 12th Street restaurant with spaghetti tasing finish with Italian pastry at local shop Est 1931. This is a NYC Mafia experience from a true “insider’s perspective” of the East Village NYC mafia & Crime history as well as local Gang history. Starting with private VIP tasting at a famous Mafia "Red Sauce Joint" seen in Soprano's "Life After Goodfellas" & "Get Gotti" this experience starts in the East Village, ends in Little Italy, we visit notorious Mafia & Crime locations, share true crime stories and crime locations in the neighborhood including gang history & locations. Please note: The 10:00 AM start time includes a cannoli only. The 11:00 AM start time includes pasta lunch + cannoli.
