Walk the notorious Spenard neighborhood of Anchorage eating, drinking, and learning the true crime history of the 1970s & 1980s Anchorage underground. Brothels, bars, strip clubs, and gambling joints were on every corner. Mobsters, ladies of the night, bikers, and con artists all making a buck. Oh, did we mention serial killers? We will end our night at one of the most famous bars in Alaskan history for a drink. Our goal is to maintain an accurate retailing of historical events in a tasteful and intriguing manner. If you're lucky, and on your worst behavior, you might have the great pleasure of meeting the infamous Wicked Wanda.
What this tour is not:
This is not a tour that glorifies true crime events. This is a historical recounting of some of the most interesting times in Anchorage’s dark history that was a direct result of a huge influx of money from the oil pipeline being built. A whole lot of debauchery is its legacy.
