What can I say? My kids love them some good ole sharks. So we come here and they never…read moredisappoint. There's sharks aplenty. Hammerhead! Saw tooth shark. Komodo dragon. Snake. Huge fishes. And an ancient SE Asian ruin theme that just makes it all the more majestic and Indiana Jonesy. I got an annual pass and in 2 months we went maybe 3 times and it's always awesome. Even without the kids, I swear I can just sit there in the shark area and meditate and listen to the underwater sounds and it's just so peaceful and soul refreshing.

During our visit, we attended a piranha talk and presentation. We also explored exhibits featuring…read moreAsian fish and lizards, sharks, and stingrays. One of the more interesting features was a ship-like viewing area that allowed children to see animals swimming both underneath and above them through the glass. This gave younger visitors another way to observe the animals closely. Stingray Touch Pool The stingray touch pool was much less accessible for small children. The stingrays usually stayed near the bottom of the pool, making them difficult for younger children to reach. Children were not permitted to sit or lie on the stone surrounding the pool for safety reasons, but there was no alternative provided, such as a secured step platform or designated raised viewing area. This meant that parents often had to lift and hold their children over the edge so they could see or attempt to touch the stingrays. That could create its own safety concern for both the parent and child. A staff member suggested that a child could lie on their stomach to reach farther into the pool. However, this may not work well for children who have sensory sensitivities, physical limitations, discomfort with pressure on their stomach, or developmental delays. The exhibit would be more inclusive if it offered a safe alternative for shorter children, such as: * A secured, nonslip step platform * A lower section of the pool designed for children * A raised glass viewing window * A staff-supported touch opportunity * Clear accessibility options for children with sensory or physical needs The touch pool was an exciting concept, but the current design made it difficult for many younger children to participate independently and safely.

Paid the aquarium at Silverton a visit on this very hot day. I love the fact that they always have…read morethe casino at a very comfortable/refreshing temperature. They have seating located directly in front of the aquarium, so you can lounge around for a bit, beat the heat and enjoy the large array of aquatic life, swimming throughout the large aquarium. I'm not a marine biologist, but I do know they have several stingrays, clown fish, a shark and various other species of fish. They sometimes have a mermaid swimming in the aquarium, which would've been a huge treat, but I guess it wasn't scheduled on the day that we stopped by. We will return to visit the aquarium & hopefully we'll get lucky and see a mermaid on the next visit... Fingers crossed.

Just check the aquarium schedule for the mermaid & sting ray feedings. Definitely a must visit place especially with kiddos!

Snacks for the goats available as well. Admission prices are listed at the check in. A newsletter pamplet was provided and the attendant explained where it was acceptable to feed animals, as well as where it was not. The pens are marked with signs too. The misting cool down area for people was okay, but most of the misting heads were clogged. Mature trees and the pond area was very pretty and the trees provided much appreciated shade from the summer sun. Picnic area and covered benches are available. Trash cans provided around the facility. The public restroom facility was okay, but I wish the restroom would have been cleaner. I kept my eyes open for crawling critters. A baby changing table was available. It's a nice facility to visit. I think children and animal lovers should enjoy visiting this place. Be mindful of the 'this animal bites' warning signs on specific pens. The goats that are 'acceptable to feed' had good manners. I'll keep an eye out for special events here during cooler seasons. Overall it was an enjoyable experience and I appreciate the work they are doing to help animals in need.

The boys each got a paper certificate after their visit. When we brought their certificates back the next day, they added a stamp to them, which made coming back even more fun and special for the kids. They also got stickers and a lollipop. There were so many little touches that made the experience memorable. We'll definitely be back. Highly recommend Dig This Las Vegas, and a huge thank you to Max for making both visits so special!

There is something you need to know about me. I don't drink or gamble so Vegas is a tough place for…read moreme to be entertained as you can only see so many shows. I also like doing new and different things. I've gone go-cart riding, I took a shooting lesson once, and I have gone sky diving. One thing I've always wanted to do was learn to drive a forklift so this sounded like my thing. I heard about this place while researching unique things to do in Vegas that didn't included gambling or the Casinos. Once I found there website I was excited to give them a try, but was undecided on which option to book. There were so many good ones. The idea of driving a bulldozer and another option to use an excavator and crush a car sounded exhilarating. I was a little nervous about finding a way to get there as they are so far out of the strip. I was worried that the LYFT driver wouldn't want to drive that far out of town to take us there or pick us up. They are located 20 minutes south of the Strip, which is a quick LYFT ride that costs under $40. And to be houses it can be the same amount of time to get around the strip and back to our hotel, the Rio which is off the strip at night when it's the busiest time and traffic is so heavy. The trip there is almost all freeway. I was a bit nervous when I found out you have to sign a waver not holding them liable if you get injured. The price of the big equipment is between $195- $320 ( Each sessions last between 45 to 90 minutes and range form age 8+ or16+) The most exhilarating one was $799 and you get to use an excavator to crush a car.. Now that sounded like the most fun. That's called the Aggression session and lasts 45 minutes. The age for this is 14+. Driving a bulldozer sounded fun too. Being so nervous I ended up booking the kid's dig. There you get to operate a 1.5 ton excavator. That seemed safer if they offered options for little kids and I mean little. Age 2+ can operate the excavator. Depending on their size they may have to sit on someone's lap. The kids dig is $29.50 for 15 minute increments. You can book multiple sessions. And for each session another person can be the operator. You can't split sessions between multiple people. Prior to booking I did call them and talked to Taylor I believe and she assured me as an adult without a child could partake in the Kids Dig. She assured me that other adults have done it and it's still a lot of fun. We went the last Sunday in May 2026. Our appointment was at Noon. I wanted to make sure I had enough time so I booked two 15 minute sessions. Having two sessions allowed us to each try it. My husband said he'd just watch and be my photographer, but I waned to give him the options too to try it out and he did and enjoyed it. Probably not as much as I did, but he had fun. Alex my instructor was amazing. He continued to yell out directions till I got the hang of it. I was doing it with another kid next to me and I felt Alex was really paying attention to me even though he was direction both of us. I was in heaven as I dug dirt out of the ground and created a giant hole. 15 minutes was plenty for time and I relinquished my second session to my husband. I had so much fun that I wanted to share the fun. I had trouble on my own remembering what to do so he continued to give me directions till I got the handle of it. I wonder how little kids so it as I was having difficulty remembering what to do. On the other hand kids play so many video games these days so they may be more used to this rhythm of movement. I highly reccomend this activity to everyone that is looking for something unique to do in Vegas. This was the highlight of my trip to Vegas. I'm so glad I overcame my fear of getting to and from Dig This. I felt very safe using the excavator. It's a little nerve wracking at first as you lean back a bit when you are digging. You really don't need the photo package as your companion can walk all around you and take pictures and videos. This only works if you are confident in their photography and videography skills. I had my doubts so I bought the photo package and I'm glad i did as Alex go a really good action shoot of me. And I'm a total photography lover. I like to capture the moment and I feel like the money is worth it not to miss the moment. When I went Sky diving I hired a photographer and videographer too and it was so worth it. The digital photo package with plaque is $67.93. If you just want the plaque it's $37.93. It's so much of a better deal to get the digital photo package as you get a minimum of 5 shots. We got 17 for the 2 sessions and that was of both my husband and myself. I was thrilled with Alex's photography skills and his ability to catch those action shots. If you have reservations do the Kid's dig. It's only $29.50 and have your companion take your picture and it's a total steal for all the fun you'll have.

I normally don't leave reviews, but parents deserve to know about our experience here…read more We were visiting with friends and their 5-year-old son was getting ready to play laser tag. While we were helping him get set up, he touched one of the laser tag guns and an employee immediately got irritated and told him in a very rude tone that he "doesn't understand" and couldn't play anymore. He's a young child -- kids that age are still learning and developing at different paces. There was no need to speak to him that way, especially in front of everyone. He ended up in tears. When I calmly approached to understand what happened, the employee continued with the same attitude and dismissive behavior. Instead of de-escalating, she became confrontational, which eventually led to security being called and us being asked to leave. The situation was completely blown out of proportion and handled in a very unprofessional way. This is a children's venue. Staff should be patient, understanding, and trained to communicate appropriately with young kids and their parents. If someone doesn't have the temperament to work around children, this may not be the right environment for them. On top of that, the playground area itself raises safety concerns. There are kids of all ages running full speed through a treehouse-style structure with steep stairs and heavy traffic, which feels like an accident waiting to happen without proper supervision or flow control. Very disappointing experience overall. Parents should be aware of how interactions are handled here.

The experience as a whole is absolutely free, but donations are welcomed. And after experiencing all of the dinos, the pageantry, the creativeness, the garage/gift shop and all of the games it only feels right to donate so that he can keep this awesome experience going for many years to come. At the end of this wonderful experience, we were invited to sign the visitors guest book that is filled with signatures from visitors from all over the country, which was pretty cool. And at the absolute very end, me and the kiddos were instructed to pick up a gemstone and head over to the large dinosaur egg located in the front yard and toss our stones in to make a wish. We were informed that the wish granting rate was roughly around 90% so choose your words wisely and be careful what you wish for because it just might come true. I thought to myself "what an amazing way to end things, you know"... to remind the kiddos that there's still a little bit of magic left in the world. I think that's a great sentiment. Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience, and if I had to sum it up in one word, it would "Dino-mite".... And yes, pun intended.
