True Crime NYC: Mafia Walk w/Ret. NYPD Detective & Local Food
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.
