The bright lights and big city have always attracted gangsters, mobsters and organised crime. From the 19th century Five Points Gang, as featured in Martin Scorsese's Gangs of New York, through to the prohibition gangsters of the 1920's and into the modern era of John Gotti and gangster rappers.
This tour is a thorough examination of New York's underbelly and provides a fascinating insight into the life and times of this great metropolis. New York has also provided the backdrop for some of the most popular gangster films in recent times such as The Godfather, GoodFellas, Donnie Brasco and American Gangster.
