Buffalo Tour Company Releases 2011 Schedule

What started as one Mafia tour in 2008 is now 8 varied historical tours in the Buffalo area.

Originally a bus tour of Mafia sites in Niagara Falls, the company, now known as Naked Buffalo, is now offering a variety of tours. The company says that its goal is to "reveal the fun underbelly of Buffalo history." According to company co-founder Michael Rizzo, "we were already presenting material that no one else has covered, and we needed a name that really showed we were different. We think
we have that now."

All tours are unique to Naked Buffalo. The current line-up of tours for 2011 is:

Glory Days of Shopping - walking tour of former shopping district based on book "Nine Nine Eight"
Allentown & FBI - walking tour of mafia crime sites in historic Allentown
Political Corruption & Organized Crime - walking tour of corrupt mayors and organized crime partially based on local book
Roseland - walking tour of West Side, includes homes, FBI sites and an infamous murder
Real Erie Canal - walking tour exposing the real history of the Canal and its people
Deadly Nights - bus tour of Mafia-suspected murders in Buffalo
The Mob Tour - the original Niagara Falls bus tour of mob sites
Brewery Legacy Tour - bus tour of former breweries in Buffalo

The company is also preparing two audio tours for the new iPhone app Geotrio, which is geared towards self-guided tours across the world.

Updated tour information will be available by phone or on the company website. The walking tours are $10 per person, with children 7-11 $5. The bus tours vary, starting at $25.

The full schedule, dates, times and prices is available at NakedBuffalo.com, with tours starting on Saturday April 9, 2011.
