Top Toledo Private and Luxury

Welcome to the Unholy Toledo Tour! Take a self-guided drive through the bloody history of 1930s gangland. Experience the magic of GPS playback while you hear from Tedd Long, writer and curator of Holy Toledo History. In 1931, during the era of G-Men, speakeasies, and Pretty Boy Floyd, a gang of Detroit wiseguys led by Thomas “Yonnie” Licavoli arrived in Toledo and brought with them a wave of violence unseen in Toledo's past: 14 murders in 36 months. Are you ready for the inside story? The most sensational crime of the era happened in July 1933 when a young club owner and bootlegger named Jack Kennedy was gunned down in Point Place. This tour tells Jack's story, from start to finish, over the course of a two-hour-long driving tour covering the downtown area and northern Toledo.

On this self-guided audio tour of Toledo, you'll embark on a voyage of Toledo’s maritime history, rewarded by Maumee River views. Join Tedd Long, writer and curator of Holy Toledo History and soak up the Port of Toledo and its maritime history on this immersive walking tour along downtown Toledo’s riverfront. You’ll follow a winding path beside the Maumee River to just past Promenade Park, where you’ll see the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Bridge before heading back towards the starting point. Along the way, Tedd will tell you why the Warehouse District was centred on Swan Creek, and how canals helped to transform the Glass City into what it is today. You’ll also learn about the great history of the Maumee River and how, when the wind changed direction in 1894, it saved downtown Toledo. You’ll have the opportunity to explore modern Toledo, too, by visiting nearby attractions like Promenade Park and Imagination Station, or dining and drinking al fresco along Summit Street.
