Little Lon Crime & Gangster Walking Tour in Melbourne

Explore Melbourne’s former slum district, Little Lon, on a shared walking tour tracing its underworld from the 1850s to the 1930s. Discover an era when local confectionery shops offered more than sweets, and hear about madams who challenged gangsters such as Squizzy Taylor and an all-female crime syndicate. Stop outside former brothels and illicit drinking shops to uncover stories from behind their walls and the surrounding laneways.
