| - I thought this tour was fun. I just wrote a very long review for the Mob tour (same bus, same company), so my fingers are hurting, and I will keep this one shorter.
First off, I don't know what everyone is talking about with the seance. We didn't have one. They gave us divining rods to see if we could detect ghost energy. We stopped at 3 places (a park, a bridge, and the Flamingo). Much of the tour was on the bus, looking at picture and video clips, which was my favorite part. It was highly interesting, and you got some of the history of Vegas (and Vegas casualties). I learned a lot, and I enjoyed it.
We didn't need to be outside for quite so long in the cold weather. None of us caught anything on our cameras. So it wasn't too scary. Just informative.
The tour guide was a man in his 70's. He told many jokes. At first it was funny, but then it was too much. It was almost like he was auditioning for a stand up comedy bit, and after a while it got old. But I really liked him (much better than the smoking mob tour guide) and thought he had a great attitude.
Also, the hotel where you start does have a bar, so you can have a cocktail beforehand (a reviewer from 2010 said that it didn't, so they must have added the bar recently?). Ample parking, so it's an easy drive.
Again, don't pay full price. It's easy to pay half price from the website directly or from a groupon special.
