Miami Beach Crime & Scandals Walk Tour with Crime Buff (Private)

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!

Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for this crime tour? Thinking of gifting it to my teen.

A: There's no strict age limit, but I'd recommend it for ages 16 and up due to the mature themes discussed. The stories can get pretty intense, especially regarding violence and crime. Just be sure your teen is comfortable with those topics before booking!

Q: How long does the tour usually last? Trying to plan my day in Miami.

A: The tour can vary in length depending on how many stories are shared and the group's interest, but it usually lasts about 2 to 3 hours. It’s super flexible, so you can ask the guide to spend more time at places you find interesting!

Q: What should I wear for the Miami Beach Crime & Scandals Walk Tour? Is it casual?

A: Casual is the way to go! Comfortable shoes are a must since you’ll be walking around a lot. Miami can be hot, so light clothing is ideal, but maybe bring a light jacket just in case you're in shaded areas. Don't forget sunscreen!

Just did the Miami Beach Crime & Scandals Walk! So thrilling!

I went on the Crime & Scandals Walk Tour last weekend, and wow, it was intense! Our guide was super knowledgeable and had some wild stories about Miami's history. I never knew about the Prohibition era here or how deep the Russian mafia's reach was in the 2000s. Definitely a must-do if you enjoy history with a twist. Just a heads up, it can get dark, so maybe not for the faint of heart!

Considering the Crime & Scandals tour as a gift - worth it?

I'm thinking of gifting the Miami Beach Crime & Scandals Walk Tour to my boyfriend who loves true crime stuff. Has anyone done this? Is it cheesy or actually interesting? I want it to be a unique experience, and he loves exploring!
