Mobsters and Movies takes you through the real haunts of Capone, Dillinger, and The Outfit—then shows you how the very same streets turned into movie magic. Walk the same corners seen in 'The Untouchables' and 'Public Enemies,' and hear how Chicago wrote the script for American gangster history. This isn’t just another sightseeing tour—it’s a front-row seat to crime, cinema, and the city that made them both.
Your guides aren’t just storytellers—they’re trained true crime historians, film buffs, and Chicago insiders who bring every scene to life. Step inside exclusive interiors where real mobsters plotted and Hollywood crews once brought the Windy City to the Silver Screen. We take you deeper into the story than any other tour can. Expect vivid tales, insider trivia, and behind-the-scenes stories that make Chicago’s gangster past feel as real as the movies it inspired.

5.00My girlfriend and I were super lucky to have had Andre as our tour guide. He was enthusiastic, answered all of our questions, and even had some questions for us which made the experience feel so engaging. We’ve done a handful of Chicago tours, and this one in particular had some of the best story telling/ history delivery we’ve experienced. We definitely recommend!
Awesome sauce
