I cannot recommend this highly enough. Our guide, Kelly, had old pictures and knew so much of this history of Old Las Vegas. It was amazing!! He told us where to get affordable water (ABC stores) and why ABC stores (which are Hawaii-based stores) are around, took us through the history of so many hotels and the highlights. We did this in December, so I am sure it is a lot hotter in the summer, but there is a lot of indoor space. I'd still recommend a water bottle. All of us loved learning and he was a great story teller. You go all the way down to Container Park and get some coupons and restaurant tip sheet at the end. You will be on your feet for two hours so wear comfy shoes. But we actually would consider staying down in "old Las Vegas" the next time we come, all because of this tour.

    We booked this tour very last minute as in two hours before it started and were welcomed along. We…read moreloved it. We loved learning the history of Vegas and about the revitalization of downtown since this is where we were staying (and how this happened). We were taken into casinos we otherwise wouldn't have stopped in. Did you know there is an award winning pool in the golden nugget...we didn't. The two hours flew by and our tour guide offered suggestions for local eats. I recommend this tour if you want a bit of a history lesson on how Vegas came to be.

I called the 800 number. No answer and no voice-mail available. I then emailed the vendor, all while still waiting out on the strip, and later received a text only asking if I wanted to rebook. Still no response from vendor on whether the tour ever happened (and left early?) or not at all. On a related note. The reviews on the website are fake. They are dated in the future for a tour that hasn't even gone out yet! (I had plenty of time to look at the website, mostly looking for a contact number, while waiting for the tour alone on the Strip.) Postscript. I received a call from the tour vendor the next day saying the guide "had an emergency" and couldn't make it. And the other two groups had cancelled. I was left waiting out on a curbside on the Las Vegas strip with no call text or email saying the tour was not going to happen. Again, the vendor asked if I wanted to rebook. After wasting an evening, plus uber fare getting to and from the the tour location, there is no way I'd give this vendor another opportunity. Better to spend your money in the casinos. At least you have a slim chance on a return on your investment.

A place that throughout the years has seen its share of theft, murder and even nuclear testing as entertainment for tourists back in the day. Can you imagine? Beyond the glitz and flashing lights of Vegas, there are morbid tales. And what better way to hear about it than on a ghost walking tour of the strip with Vegas Ghosts? Tours last about 1 hour ($21 per person), with an option to do an extended version with 1 hour of extra spooky tales (and just $5 extra per person). The meeting location is right on the strip by the Fashion Show Mall, making it super convenient. Our guide Cody did a great job keeping this upbeat (for a ghost tour). But why is Las Vegas haunted? Well, you'll have to take the tour to get the full story. In short, death and murder has always been associated with Vegas, going back to the land grab from Las Vegas Paiute Tribe then later with the mobsters who weren't exactly afraid to 'pop off' anyone who didn't pay up. Nearly every hotel on the strip has a ghost story to tell. Though you'll likely never hear much about it in the news since it's not exactly the image of Vegas. There is big money in Vegas, and nearly every hotel has some sordid tale. This is the story of Vegas you won't see in the news. Legendary celebrities like Liberace, Tupac and Bugsy Seigel, as well as ordinary individuals simply in the wrong place at the wrong time, are a part of the city's infamy, their spirits linger on and curse the dice in Sin City. One thing is for certain. We won't think of our time in Vegas ever the same way again, especially while staying at the Cosmopolitan Hotel, one of our favorites on the strip. Let's just say, it's seen its share of deaths with numerous falls (intentional or not) from its hundreds of balconies. Creepy! Advanced reservations for Vegas Ghosts are highly recommended and can be booked directly from their website.

Rikka is INCREDIBLY knowledgeable in the art world and the evolution of downtown Las Vegas. I actually have already taken this tour twice when different family members come into town and you learn different things each time! Since the murals are constantly rotating, Rikka always shows the newest pieces and tells you the interesting backstories of these artists. She tells you their inspiration or where else they might have work in the world since she travels all over learning about these artists. Rikka answers all questions with ease and puts her own little funny / witty spin on the tour. I highly recommend this tour and will be taking it at least once a year to get a refresher on Vegas' ever-rotating & evolving art scene!

This included Kelsey, an up and coming designer who won a design award and was celebrating a victory. There was also a lot of great places to photograph and be photographed.

It was a bit crowded and lines were long, so it's probably better to get food and drink early on in the evening.

This experience was unforgettable from start to finish in their 165 acre property. We kicked off the day with a short ride on Jafar, a stunning, gentle giant weighing nearly 3,000 pounds. ( love at first sight) After taking some amazing photos with him, he happily stayed nearby and spent the rest of the day with us. From there, we met several other camels and hopped on the tram, where more adventures were to be had . Along the way, we encountered so many incredible animals, more camels, a zedonk, llamas, alpacas, and miniature horses. One of the highlights was feeding Thorn, their adorable pet porcupine,grapes she was just the sweetest little girl. We also got to see New Guinea singing dogs (so cute!) and Ambien, their 20-year-old sloth, who was just as amazing to see in person as you'd imagine. Feeding the alpacas and llamas carrots was such a fun, hands-on experience. As if that wasn't enough, four friendly Ridgeback dogs casually joined us on the tram, roaming freely and adding even more charm to the day. Every animal we encountered was gentle, well cared for and clearly loved . I truly can't say enough wonderful things about this experience it was pure joy from beginning to end. If you've never met a camel, Ilama, or alpaca, you're missing out. These gentle creatures will absolutely fill your heart. I'm already looking forward to going back again soon. I didn't want the day to end . This is one adventure you don't want to miss it's truly an overload of joy! "LIVE LIFE WITH LOVE & LAUGHTER" ~PEACE JODY~

We were amazed by how up close and personal we could get with the camels and the other animals. The safari tram tour was informative and much more engaging than anticipated as well. We had plenty of opportunities to see the animals in a natural, spacious environment. The friendly staff were also incredibly knowledgeable and clearly passionate about the animals in their care. They shared interesting facts about the area and the animals throughout the tour that made the experience both fun and educational. This was far better than your average zoo... it felt much more interactive and authentic. One of the biggest highlights is the location itself. It truly feels like a backcountry adventure, and it's hard to believe you're such a short drive from the Las Vegas Strip. We also did the UTV tour, which took us down to the Virgin River and deeper into the surrounding desert landscape. The scenery was stunning, and I couldn't believe we had just been in the middle of Vegas. What a great experience!

It does take you all the way to the Strat and Fremont street. But LV also has a transit bus that runs more frequently and is cheaper, just FYI. I downloaded the app but the bus times were still off. Busses come once every 40 min or so so if you miss it you have a while to wait. First stop is in an alley behind the MGM Grand so it took us a bit to find it. More space up top, but if it rains (like it did with us!) or is super cold, the bottom gets pretty crowded. Still a good way to see the sites. Night bus tour is separate and doesn't make stops.
