| - In April of 2015, My family went to the CSI experience in Las Vegas and we all loved it. We got to experience all three rooms thanks to a Groupon, which made the experience even better because of the great savings.
The CSI experience is located at the MGM Grand in the District area.
The CSI experience consist of 3 different rooms, each room is a different crime, and has different CSI forensics to consider and solve.
After a short video about CSI, you will be able to enter one of the assigned crime scene rooms with a issued clipboard, pen, and investigation sheet. After you view the crime scene and take notes, you then head off to each of the forensic areas to answer the questions on the investigation sheet. You'll have anywhere between 5-6 forensic areas to help you solve the crime. Some of the forensic areas are; blood transfer, fingerprints, impression evidence, trace evidence, blood pathology, toxicology, DNA, firearms, dental records, and drug testing.
After you visit each of the forensic stations you then visit the last station which is the autopsy/medical examiner, which a video will explain what occurred. There is no blood and guts or cadavers. They show the injuries projected onto a white manaquin, but nothing is gory.
You then go to the final station and reports input your findings and answers the questions into a computer. It will then let you know if your conclusions are correct, and will show you a short video of the crime that occurred as it unfolded. Again, nothing gory.
The CSI experience is more education than problem solving, but still very fun. My wife and two children (age 7 & 9) loved it. My kids spent the rest of the week talking about DNA, blood splatter evidence and fingers prints. It was too funny to listen to them talking and playing detective.
After the experience they will email you a CSI diploma, which we have never received, or you can buy a printed on there with your name on it for $5.
After the experience you can also put on some CSI attire, complete with gun and handcuffs for a photo with cool backgrounds. They cost anywhere from $15-$50 depending on which package you get.
They also have a great gift shop with lots of CSI merchandise.
I would have attached some photos of the experience, but they prohibit photos in the attraction area. Other than the souvenir photo you have to pay for.
Of the three rooms, we all felt that room #1 was best, then room #2, and then room #3. If you don't have a Groupon, I would just do room #1.
I thought the CSI experience was very fun, and very educational. I would recommend this attraction to my family and friends.
