Worth leaving the casino for! - Awesome guide and experience! We learned a lot and laughed a lot! Saw things that were tucked away in inconspicuous spots. Well worth your time!!

IF YOU HAVE ANY APPRECIATION FOR HISTORY, MAKE THIS TOUR AN ABSOLUTE PRIORITY FOR YOUR NEXT TRIP TO VEGAS - This wonderful, intriguing, and captivating tour is somewhat mislabeled. Yes, it is a Mob tour, and our guide, Richard, was a font of information about the Mob’s role in building and running Vegas. I can tell a poseur on such topics from the start of any kind of tour or presentation, and Richard is by no means such a poseur; I learned a great deal from him on a topic with which I have a not inconsiderable degree of familiarity. But the tour transcends Mob history to cover virtually the entire history of Vegas, from its start as a Native American settlement to its current indescribable, for good or for ill, status as the entertainment capital of the world. The Mob, of course, is inextricably woven into that history, but there is, believe it or not, much about Vegas that transcends the enterprising young businessmen from the east who built it, and Richard is intimately, and intriguingly, familiar with it all. We spent three and a half hours with Richard on a somewhat inhospitable day weather-wise, but it seemed like we were with him for only about an hour or so. The man’s knowledge is encyclopedic and is matched by his sense of humor and his abundantly apparent love for the city he calls home. Our tour ended at the Mob Museum, of which Richard is a member, and we enjoyed the Museum and would highly recommend it. However, after sharing all that time with Richard and learning so much from the man, the Museum, as great as it was, paled in comparison. One more note…. Though the tour included plenty of information about the Strip, it was, obviously, heavily tilted toward downtown, which made it, in this history buff’s estimation, especially intriguing. The Strip is largely plastic and sanitized; downtown is the “real” Vegas, and nobody knows downtown like Richard.

Great tour! - Learned a lot about the history of Las Vegas as well as the mob connections. Very informative. The downtown area/Fremont is such a fun area and it was nice to explore the city outside of the strip. The Mob Museum was a great addition (included with your booking) to end the tour and reinforce many of the things we learned along the tour. Our tour guide, Richard, was knowledgeable and very passionate about sharing his knowledge.

Mob tour was a hit! - Richard was a great tour guide that brought a lot of knowledge and enthusiasm and really gave a great "behind the scenes" look at how Vegas started and the mob connections. It was cool to go into some of the original casinos.

Mob walking tour - The weather was perfect for a walking tour of Vegas. Our guide, Richard, was so informative and fun! It was a walk through the past and we learned so much about the history of Vegas besides how the Mob came to run it. We all really enjoyed it. Ending at the Museum was a bonus!

I would highly recommend this tour; great value with amazing stories. - Richard was our tour guide; he is amazing. He is very knowledgeable and a fantastic host. I learned so much about the mob. History and Richard’s story telling made this tour very interesting. Brought us to places we otherwise would not have seen.

Tour with friends - Great experience with a group of friends. Richard put us at ease and was enthusiastic throughout. Would definitely recommend!

A Must tour to really know Las Vegas - What a fantastic way to step back in time and learn the history of Las Vegas and the MOB! If you don’t take this tour, you will miss out on learning a lot of great info about this town. The guide Richard is very knowledgeable, and a fantastic storyteller! You will be surprised at some of those stories! If you really want to know Las Vegas, you MUST take this tour!!

Excellent tour - Had a great time learning the stories and happenings in "the old days" of downtown Vegas. Excellent job, had a lot of fun.

Very interesting LV Mob history lesson! - Richard was very knowledgeable and gave us a private tour! It was very interesting to to hear how Las Vegas came into existence and to visit the original casinos that started it all. It was well worth the time and effort and a great value.
