Miami Beach Crime & Scandals Walk Tour with Crime Buff (Private)
Overview
Miami holds incredibly checkered scandalous crime-rich history. I have made it my mission to bring these stories to life through extensive research, masterful storytelling, and unrivaled passion. Some of the topics include racism/segregation, rivers of alcohol during Prohibition, illegal gambling rackets, lanes (not even lines) of cocaine in the 1980s, Russian mafia's grip on Washington Avenue in 2000s, and so much more.
Every stop is a crime scene, every building a crime location, every lobby a corpse close-up, and every detail a dreadful story waiting to be told. My goal? To make you feel the thrill and fear of Miami’s darkest past! Just in case some are faint of heart, all participants will be required to sign a release form first!
