Great tour. I really enjoyed learning about the history of Fremont Street and actually getting inside of some of the casinos and seeing their attractions like the huge gold nugget at the Golden Nugget and the million dollars in cash at Binions Casino. My guide, Jordan, took a great picture of me with my hands on the cash.

Jaci_H

Loved getting to learn the history of downtown and see all of the highlights as we would have never known what to look for doing it on our own. Our tour guide was the owner, Jordan, which put an extra nice touch on it!

Ron was fantastic. He had great stories full of info on the history of the area, the characters that built the town, and how the new movers and shakers are shaping Vegas today. Turns out he’s even a pretty good photographer for all your picture needs!

We booked the tour for a local (Henderson, NV) womens' group and we had fun. We started at the Plaza Hotel and over the next two hours learned local history, visited the downtown (Glitter Gulch - Fremont Street) sites and sights and were thoroughly entertained by Kelly's knowledge of the area and his enthusiasm for downtown Las Vegas. We found corners we had passed over before and followed the development and changes to downtown Las Vegas from William Clark purchasing land for his railroad stop following John C. Fremont's discoveries to Tony Hsieh and downtown revitalization - all while we walked the history and the now. All of us are well over 50 and some of us have lived in southern Nevada for 20 years or more. Some of us have been here less than a decade. The tour appealed to everyone. The pace was leisurely. We visited places that allowed cooling off and midway had a convenient place for a restroom break that did not slow up the group. The audio earphones were comfortable and they worked. It was easy to hear Kelly all through the tour. It was a great tour, an interesting tour. Thank you Kelly.
