Very informative! Patricia is very well-versed and knowledgeable! I would love to take more of her tours.





As seen on BBC, NBC, and featured on Netflix’s Dark Tourist, this is one of the most talked-about true crime tours in the world. The Cream City Cannibal Tour explores one of Milwaukee’s most infamous criminal cases—walking through the exact neighborhood where multiple events connected to a notorious serial killer took place. This is not a casual history tour. Through guided storytelling, guests are led through the psychological, cultural, and real-world impact of the case, offering insight into how it unfolded and why it continues to be studied today. The tour has even been referenced in academic settings, including university psychology and criminal justice programs. Expect a deeper, more intense experience—focused on understanding, not sensationalizing. Outdoor tour. Rain or shine. Not recommended for those sensitive to true crime content.
The Cream City Cannibal tour takes you through cannibalistic serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer's "hunting grounds," the Historic Walkers Point Neighborhood of Milwaukee. Walk along the exact blocks where he poached 7 of his 17 victims. Stops along the walking tour include areas wherein he picked up his victims, as well as establishments where he both frequented and scoped out his victims at the time.

The tour was fantastic and our guide, Christopher, was great. So fun and lots of great stories and info. Perfect for out of towners but also great for locals to new things about what went down. Would totally recommend, can't wait to do the other haunted tours
An interesting crime story tour that starts and ends in a bar that Dahmer visited. The tour only takes you up and down the street and shows you other bars where he looked for victims. Along the way, our guide Scott would make stops to tell Dahmer's story from his childhood. We only had five in our group so it was easy enough to hear. Scott was mindful of the people passing by and would pause his story at appropriate times because of the sensitive topic. I was hesitant to book this tour, but I believe it is more factual and not sensationalized. Your tour also includes a discount at the Shaker's Cigar Bar for certain items from the menu.
It has very interesting information and the guide is well prepared and respectful to victims and their families.
Elizabeth is an amazing tour guide. I have been on two tours with her now and have enjoyed each of them very much.
Interesting subject matter, presentation was poorly organized and very hard to follow. Tour should shortened to 1 hour.
The tour was informative and taught me new information that I didn’t know! Our tour guide answered all our questions and was very accommodating.
It's basically just a walk down the street and back a five minute break and walk the other way down the street. Tour guide was very soft spoken and nearly impossible to hear.
Quite simply this was not worth the money or the time we spent. Miranda the tour guide took us past three bars that Jeffrey Dahmer supposedly frequented. Two of the three are now different establishments and the third we didn’t go into. Miranda, our guide, did not project well and without headsets and a microphone for her it was difficult to hear her. The tour was outside in a busy and noisy street. She mentioned some information and some photos that we might want to read/see. She had no handouts or photos to pass around. She told us to Google it or to search the Internet. This was an expensive tour at $68 per person. The least the tour operator could do is have some handouts! Oh and that 1.5 hour tour was just under an hour! I felt disappointed and cheated. I really felt ripped off by the tour company. I learned absolutely nothing on this tour and in the end am posting this so other people don’t make the mistake I did. Save yourself the money and watch the Netflix miniseries. This tour was AWFUL!
This was amazing!!! Our guide, Miranda, was absolutely fantastic!!! Definitely recommend!!!
