Galveston Red Light District Tour

Overview
Return to a time when the mob ran Galveston and their guests were treated as if they were family. When you crossed the bridge you enter "The Free State of Galveston," where the only rules were mob rules. The stars of the era were world class entertainers brought in to perform in the casinos, including Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., and Dean Martin. Everyone was enjoying their own "Vegas Dream" right here in Galveston.

Rob certainly knew his Galveston historyā€”a little serious, a little funny and a lot of great information. Have lived in the area a long time and he told us things we had never heard or read. Great Job Rob.

Rob was excellent guide. He is extremely knowledgeable of the area and red light district history. He is easy to understand and funny to hang out with for 90 minutes. And he answered all questions.
