We had a private tour with retired history professor Richard who gave us all the history of downtown Las Vegas from the 1800”s to today. It was so different seeing all the casinos through his eyes and incredible story telling. It was particularly interesting to hear about prohibition times, the workers at the Dam, the secret tunnels during prohibition and finding all the old artifacts that you would miss just visiting the casino. Vegas certainly has a colorful history and even if you’re not a history buff it’s a very cool way to visit the casinos. We finished off at the Mob Museum and enjoyed a chat in the Underground Speakeasy. Recommend this as an option when visiting Downtown!
