    It's worth visiting and taking some nice photos and videos. Be avere os some pickpockets because it can be crowded.
    If you have time, it is great to visit it during the day and night time.

    So fun to go and see. It's such a crazy place, you literally see anything and everything! If you thought the strip was busy then this is another level. You wouldn't want to spend your whole trip here but it's worth a visit.

    If you are in Vegas you MUST drive to see the Red Rock Canyons. These were truly amazing! I was in awe the entire time. We were staying in Henderson and drive 20-25 minutes to get there. It cost $20 or $25 to get in. There is a 13 mile loop you can just drive if you want to. There are some areas that you stop and park and get out and just look around or you can actually go hiking.

    Get a good view of the strip and suburbs behind it. It takes about 30 minutes to go around. We went at night so got to see Vegas all light up … but be mindful you do get some reflections from the glass if taking photos. We bought a fast track pass, but this is mostly useful in peak season… there were no queues when we went so perhaps the extra money could have been spent elsewhere s Vegas is not cheap … food and drinks are pricey if you aren’t paying the tables or slots.

    Must visit when even around Las Vegas. Great location with many attractions and many more shopping malls, casinos, and more. During North Summer time, it is hot even at night.

    The Mob Museum is worth visiting at least once. You don't get to see a museum of this type often in the world, namely, a museum talking about gangsters, how it started in the USA, how law enforcements, intelligence, and government handled it in the past with some real examples. Washington DC's Spy Museum has a bit of reminisce. They are both good and educational museums to visit.

    The museum used to be an old US post office, a historical landmark. You can purchase tickets online or on the spot, the process was easy and straightforward. Staff were all friendly and helpful in providing directions and answering questions. The self-guided tour/visit starts from the third floor, and you work your way down to the first floor. They also have guest speakers who used to be part of the gang members to speak, the information desk can share the schedule, as it varies daily. They also have optional interactive experiences which you have to pay extra for. I did not have time to participate, so can't comment on them.

    It's an informational, educational, and interesting museum. It's located within walking distance of the Fremont Street in downtown Las Vegas area. There is a parking lot right outside and a parking garage across the street.

    Budget 3 hours so you are not rushed if you want to see and experience everything thoroughly.

    I visited The Neon Museum in Las Vegas, and it was a unique experience. The old neon signs from famous casinos and hotels made me feel like I was stepping back in time. The guided tour was really interesting, and I learned a lot about Vegas history.

    I think the night tour is the best because the signs light up beautifully. Tickets start at aroun
