Crimes & Cuisines of Federal Hill

Crimes & Cuisines of Federal Hill

Wednesday, May 21

The Federal Hill neighborhood of Providence is one of the city’s hottest destinations, and home to some of the best Italian food in the country. This tour will give you a smorgasbord of its best bites and drinks, from fine wines to house-made pasta. Come hungry because we will be sampling 5 different restaurants and 2 different wines! Everyone will also get a memento from their time on the Hill to take home with them. Spoiler alert: it's delicious! The Hill was also home to some historic characters who dabbled on the wrong side of the law. Follow the intrigue of State v. Patriarca, when a future mayor took on a mob boss; learn about the corruption that brought Rhode Island's banking system to its knees in the '90s, and about a raid on an illegal dice game that sent a Providence Police Officer through a second-story window and many more scandalous tales.  You will have some free time to enjoy the Federal Hill neighborhood independently after our 3.5 hour guided walking & noshing tour. 

Please note this tour includes a 3.5 hour walking tour over uneven sidewalks.  The distance covered is 0.7 miles with lots of stops to sit & eat during the tour so is done at a leisurely pace. Please wear comfortable walking shoes.
