Step into Galveston’s most scandalous secret, where the police stopped at the bridge and vice ruled the island.
Return to an era where Galveston was known as "America’s Playground", a wide-open paradise of sin where gambling, booze, brothels, and back-room deals flourished under the protection of organized crime. As long as the money flowed, visitors were treated like family and indulgence came without consequence. Casinos pulsed through the night, and The Red Light District thrived behind unmarked doors. Corruption was no longer whispered, it was expected.
This was Galveston’s own Vegas dream, complete with world-class entertainers like Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., and Dean Martin performing just steps away from prostitution, payoffs, and illicit pleasures.
On this tour, you’ll uncover the stories they tried to bury, the places where power was bought with favors, and how Galveston became one of the most notorious Red Light Districts in America, all hiding in plain sight.

5.00Wonderfully fun and informative one and a half hour walking tour with guide Noelle. So much unknown history to us from the northeast part of the country that was learned. Would recommend it to anyone other than very close minded, religious fanatics.
The Redlight District Tour is awesome!

5.00We had a phenomenal time on the Red Light District tour tonight. Our guide, Rob, was incredibly knowledgeable about the history and events of the area and shared it all in such an engaging way. We’ve done many tours over the years, and Rob is truly one of the best guides we’ve ever had—well-spoken, friendly, and full of fascinating insight. He made the entire experience enjoyable and memorable, and we highly recommend him.

5.00Informative and niche. You notice things that you didn’t realize had deeper meanings and you go inside places you didn’t know you could enter. Would highly recommend to someone who is looking to connect with the city on a deeper level!
We were entertained and learned a lot!

5.00We thoroughly enjoyed our Red Light District tour with Robert. Galveston has such a fascinating (and lurid!) history, and Robert really brought it to life. We learned a lot and also had some laughs. Highly recommend.
