Overview
As seen on HBO's MURDER IN GLITTERBALL CITY! Impressive Victorian mansions and quirky residents have earned national attention for Old Louisville, where bourbon barons, racetrack royalty, and titans of tobacco settled in the 1800s. This narrated walk comes from books by David Dominé, who often guides groups himself. Tales involve personal experiences and neighborhood legend, as well as the story at the heart A DARK ROOM IN GLITTER BALL CITY, the true-crime memoir that inspired the HBO series! Specializing in "America's Most Haunted Neighborhood," we depart from the corner of Fourth and Ormsby, at the transitional edge of the neighborhood. If you love beautiful architecture and spooky history, this is the tour for you! If you do not like a diverse, up-and-coming neighborhood, or can't go 2 hours without a bathroom, this is not for you! The New York Times recommends our tours as the first thing to do during a visitor's "36 Hours in Louisville." Locally owned and operated since 2004.
