Less about Capone, more history and stories which I actually preferred. Our guide, Avery, was great and a lot of fun. Definitely recommended

Sophie was great! She definitely made the tour. More tragic death events rather than ghost/haunted if that’s what you were hoping for.

It was an awesome tour and so fun and informative. The guide was friendly and veyr knowledgable. He made the tour. The Palmer House was spectacular and the brownie. The stories about Al Capone and his dealings were fantastic; his Speak Easy, government corruption and his gang wars were great. The stories about the ghosts were sad and eerie; the sinking of the ship on the river, Death Alley, Dr. H. H. Homs murders and the woman who through her children out the hotel window were chilling. The tour guide made it come alive.

This city has an incredible history, which, unfortunately, includes a lot of tragedy. Baylor did a great job of blending intense stories with humor.
