    My husband and I had a great time with Adam as our guide! He was very informative and knowledgeable. A lot we already from watching ghost shows. We were happy to encounter some spirits. Thank you to the town and Adam for being such amazing hosts.

    The Mob Tour's sign in the Royal Inn's lobby.
    Norm K.

    This is a two and a half hour "tour" that begins at the Royal Resort on Convention Center Drive, and it covers much of the history of Las Vegas when the Mob had tremendous influence and controlled much. Much of the tour consists of sitting on the bus in the shade of some buildings while the tour director describes mob activities and shows photos and video on the flat panel at the front of the bus. The first talk was about 15 minutes as we sat in the shade of the buildings west of the Royal Resort. We then took a circuitous route down Convention Center Drive, made a left on Paradise, went to Sahara where we made a right, turned right on Joe W. Brown and then parked in the shade of the Las Vegas Hilton near its Sports Book entrance. From there we went back down Joe W. to karen to Maryland to Sahara to Tony Roma's where Frank Rosenthal survived a car bombing attempt on October 4, 1982. See what I mean about how the "tour" goes. For a local, it was awful to see the roundabout way we were going. As a tourist, I might not have noticed. The material offered during the tour is excellent. There just isn't enough to see on the tour. The only place we got out of the bus and toured anything was the last place, the Flamingo Hotel, where we walked to Benjamin "Bugsy" Siegel's Garden. Now that I know where it is I'll be back to see it in daylight. We were fortunate to have as our narrator Dennis Griffin, the author of several books. He has a lot of knowledge. I'm glad I had a Groupon for this experience.

    We went on the Vegas Mob tour and  since I cannot give a 0 rating on yelp, this one star is for our tour guide and ONLY due to him. I think his name was Bobby and not only was he very knowledgeable of mob history, he dressed up in a sharp pin striped suit for the tour, giving us that extra mob feel. Other than that, I was incredibly disappointed. We were picked up from the Tuscany Casino by a tour bus and driven around Vegas. Mini tv's around the bus played a video dedicated to mob history as we drove, which was informative, but I could have googled most of what was presented. They were also having constant technical difficulties, starting and stopping, etc. It was a "new system" so while it was annoying, I could sort of understand. We drove around Vegas and sat in the bus on the side of buildings and parking lots, pointing out where things used to be (this person was car bombed here, this is where a famous mob hang out used to be) all while they played clips of the movie Casino. Where was the "dark side of sin city" as this $100 tour claimed to offer? MY MAIN ISSUE WAS WITH THE BUS ITSELF AND THE OWNER. The bus we traveled on had such a poor AC unit, it was located in the roof of the bus and the flow of air failed to reach the very back of the packed tour bus. For 2 hours, my mom and I fanned ourselves with our mob tour programs, praying for it to be over. The worst part? It was OBVIOUS the riders in the back of the bus were uncomfortable and the owner actually SAW THAT. He turned around a few times to address the bus riders, and saw us melting. Where was he seated? Yeah, right towards the front, under the flow of AC. So we pulled back up to the Tuscany after being in our torture chamber for 2 hours, stood up covered in sweat, our pants stuck to the backs of our legs, got off the bus, hailed a cab and NEVER looked back. Didn't even care to consume our pizza dinner they offered. I was planning on speaking with the owner to voice my dissatisfaction, but my mother (who has a serious heart condition) was about to have a heat stroke right in front of me. So I chose to take care of getting her back to our hotel instead. Just sad... This tour has A LOT of issues, and was a complete waste of my time. And trust me, if my mother ended up in the hospital due to this rolling death trap, I would be writing this review from county jail.

    Oldest, still operating saloon in NV.

    If you are fortunate enough to have Ryan as your tour guide, you will be very pleased with your experience with this tour. Very unique and you will enjoy a night away from Vegas for a few hours! You start at the Pioneer saloon, which the oldest, still operating saloon in NV. I just loved the bartender! She was so nice and friendly with everyone. I think Stacey is her name, but I could be wrong. After your meal(included in the tour and good), you go for a walk around the area with your guide, that tells you all about the events and people associated with the area, and the spirits that are still active! You are equipped with dowsing rods, a spot thermometer and an energy meter. Your guide also takes a spirit box with your group. It can get quite cold out there, so bundle up well, because you will do a bit of walking around out there! It's a great way to take a break from Vegas and do something unique and interesting that I can guarantee not too many people you meet will say they have done! Ryan as your tour guide is terrific, and he loves his job very much and it shows with his enthusiasm and performance!

    The house from "Casino" with owner and our tour guide
    April D.

    I so want to give this more stars just because everyone associated with this tour was so nice but nice doesn't win the race. Becky that arranged the tour, our driver, the owners of the "Casino" house, folks at Angelina's pizza and Bobby Lucetta our tour guide were fabulous. But I'm not really reviewing them, it's about the tour. I use the word "tour" lightly. We ended up being the only 2 people on the tour. Meeting at the Royal Resort we were escorted to a van where the tour began...press play and the video begins. Most of the tour was us watching a video in a van driving around seedy Las Vegas neighborhoods. There was a lot of interesting information but I feel the tour part could be done better. Our only stop of the evening where we were able to get out of the van was at the house that the movie "Casino" was filmed. The owner came out to say hi and take some pictures which was a pleasant surprise. We eventually had a "pizza party" at Angelina's pizza. Our beverage choice was water and we shared a pepperoni pizza which was very average, it was described to us as authentic New York pizza...are you sure you've ever had authentic New York pizza? Because this wasn't it, authentic Dominos copycat pizza maybe. Soon after we found ourselves heading back to the Royal Resort after one more tour stop. Luckily I had won these tickets at a raffle, I was shocked when I heard the price. We've been on cheaper tours that were better than this, sadly I wouldn't recommend this tour.

    What an amazing, informative and fun time we had on the tour!!! Bobby Lucetta was amazing! He even dressed the part! My husband and I had a blast! We saw the house Robert DeNiro and Sharon Stones characters lived in for the movie Casino, and we were even able to get out and have our picture taken in front of the house! They taught us a lot about Las Vegas and the history of its rise to the city it is today. I would recommend this tour to anyone that is interested in the mob, or history in general! Bobby also gave us free tickets to the Mob museum which was very informative and cool! That was great because it saved us some money for a place we wanted to go to anyway. Then after the tour we had pizza with Bobby and another couple, I mean how cool is that!

    Best tour in Vegas!!!

    Ask the Community - Vegas Specialty Tours

    Are there Shuttles from the Hotels to the venue?

    Sorry, unfortunately no there are not. There is however free parking and it is only 1.5 blocks off the strip.

    Where does the tour go for pizza?

    The Tuscany Suites and Casino. We have the pizza in the back of the pub.

[Food tour options]: The food tour company offers multiple food tours. The original and most popular signature tour is Savors of The Strip (3 hottest restaurants located inside and adjacent to Aria Resort & Casino - $215 per person). There are also other interesting tours like the followings: # Savory Bites & Neon Lights (Savors of The Strip + 12- to 15-minute helicopter flight - $350 per person) # Chinatown Speakeasy Lip Smacking Tour (Màs Por Favor, GYU+ Social Lounge, and Lullabar - $125 per person) # Michelin & Iron Chef Experience (Joel Robuchon, L'Atelier De Joel Robuchon, and Morimoto - $499 per person) # MGM Grand Lip Smacking Tour (Morimoto, Craftsteak, and Luchini - $199 per person) # Mandalay Bay Lip Smacking Tour (Libertine Social, StripSteak, Orla - $175 per person) # Arts District Craft Cocktail Crawl (5 lounges and speakeasies - $99 per person) # Downtown Lip Smacking Tour (Carson's Kitchen, Le Thai, Oak & Ivy, 7th & Carson - $135 per person). # Afternoon Culinary Adventures (4 restaurants located within The Venetian/Palazzo and the Wynn - $149 per person) [Food allergies or dietary restrictions]: The tour company is a specialists in this area including vegan, vegetarian, and pescatarian. Dishes can also be modified to omit seafood, gluten, nuts, dairy or other allergens. 24 hours' advance notice is required for the public experience. *** Downtown Lip Smacking Tour $135 Per Person at 1:30 PM *** Our tour was led by Nanette, who has been with Lip Smacking for approximately 5-6 months. Our party met her at Carson's Kitchen and the tour started promptly at 1:30 PM. The other party didn't show up so the public experience unintentionally turned into a private experience with just our party. Since there was additional leftover food due to the no-show from the other party, our party was able to take some of the additional leftover food back to our hotel. Our guide also took pictures of our party throughout the tour and gave us a one-time-download QR code to scan and save those photos for free. Our guide also went over the history of Downtown Las Vegas and Tony Hsieh (CEO of Zappos)'s $350 million Downtown Project (the revitalization of the Fremont East Entertainment District and its surrounding area in Downtown Las Vegas). [Carson's Kitchen - Crispy Chicken Skins, "Devil's" Eggs, Young Beets, Killer Shrimp]: I had been to this eatery in 2022 and wasn't quite impressed with chicken skins, but this time our party was presented with additional dishes and I actually liked the Killer Shrimp and Devil's Eggs. [Le Thai - Crispy Spring Roll, Waterfall Beef, Chicken Pad Kee Mow, Short Rib Fried Rice]: Waterfall beef, short rib fried rice, and pad kee mow were good and hit the spot. Our party paid extra for a separate Thai iced tea and it was surprisingly good - a very balanced drink and not overly sweet. [Oak & Ivy]: I got myself a mocktail and it was decent. [7th & Carson - Curry Pasty, Grilled Pear + Burrata, Potato Gnocchi]: The no-show party ordered Carson Cooler (Absolut Elyx, blood orange, thyme, cucumber, lemon, honey) and the tour guide gave the drink to our party for free - apparently the drink was amazing and tasted very refreshing. Out of the three dishes, the potato gnocchi was the best one with a crispy texture from the kale, tender short rib, and chewy gnocchi. [Conclusion]: The tour lasted 2.5 hours and it was worth every penny. Not only did our party have completely full stomachs and skip same-day dinner, but our party also had so much leftover food that we ended up giving a portion of the leftovers to other friends and still had enough leftovers to skip lunch the following day. I would definitely consider doing another Lip Smacking Foodie Tour next time our party comes to Vegas. P.S. - Please don't forget to tip the guide. Our guide even had a spare umbrella and it came in handy as it actually rained during the first part of the tour.

The cars can go fast but you'll be doing 30 mph Max (if so). You'll be driving in bicycle lanes all the way up to the High Point, and you'll stop in 4 different spots along the way!! One thing I wish there was available would be bathrooms at base. The only bathrooms in our stops were the second stop and the last stop, and those are public restrooms, no need to say more! The second stop (after you get to base and drive) actually has a nice rest area with gorgeous back drops - perfect for Instagram (lol). Check the pic we took. This is the best social distancing activities and it's a great way to see the nature. Go in the 8 am slot tho...bring sunscreen and water will be provided in the second stop, however bring your own anyways. Highly recommend Leo and this tour.

The cost is known up front. A few of the other tours do not include the fee charged by the Navajo. Booking was simple on the website. I actually wanted another date that wasn't available. I emailed GC, and received a quick reply as to potential date changes. From Las Vegas to Antelope Canyon, it's an early call. We had to be ready by 6:30am. Our tour guide kept us informed about what we were doing, -- going to the other hotels for the pickups and how many more stops before we actually get on the road. He gave us information about the area as we were driving out of town. He seemed to know the right amount of talking to do on the trip. Since it was early, some wanted to do a little napping. Our tour guide was very conscientious to make sure we made our appointment to the Navajo tour. He said if we were late, our tickets would be sold to walkups. Going to and from, there were enough bathroom stops and our tour guide made sure to tell us how many hours it would be before our next bathroom break. I felt the driving was safe and responsible but not meek. He had to pass cars or else we probably wouldn't get back until the next day. When he passed, it wasn't reckless. It is a long drive, and it was great leaving the driving to GC Tours. We didn't return to Las Vegas until about 9:00pm. The only disappointment was that GC was very busy and they had to use a rental van so there weren't the captain's chair seats in the van. It was a great tour. Antelope Canyon is beautiful.
