I've been coming to Las Vegas for nearly 30 years now, well before there was a roof over Freemont Street, and well before downtown Las Vegas/Freemont felt safe to explore like it does now. It is so great to see all the changes made to the area in the past few years, and Las Vegas Walking tours not only gave me new insight to the area's past, but a preview to where it is headed!
Our tour guide Kelly was well informed, and knew his stuff. He came prepared with photos of the area over the decades, which were great to see! He provided everyone on the tour with a little headset to make sure we could all hear him over the bustle that is Freemont Street.
I thoroughly enjoyed this tour! I highly recommend it, but I would suggest you take this tour at the start of your visit to Las Vegas, rather than on your last day there like we did, and plan to leave yourself a few hours, if not the day, afterwards. I really wish we had time to go off and explore some of the great places Kelly told us about after the tour. They even provide you with some coupons for businesses in the area, I would have liked to have used. Guess I will have to save that for my next trip!
Take this tour! I bet you'll learn something new about Las Vegas! I know I did!
