    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 around $25, which is worth it for the experience.

    This was a fun little break from the strip. The washrooms were spotless and staff was very friendly. We spent 1 hour here and only $10! A lot of the games are from our childhood.

    The tour was a crisp 2 1/2 hours. Tour guided the whole way. Be wanted you will be in the pitblack for most of the time. There is a lot of smoke being pushed through the place. And A LOT of smells. So if you are sensitive to either I do not recommend. But there is a lot of spooky stuff and it's informative. The tour.guides where amazing. Loved them all. It is over stimulating because in one room there will be over 100 different things to look at in each room. We did a morning tour and afterwards we where dead inside from the over stimulation

    Shelby American is a great little factory and museum. We loved wandering around here and we took loads of photo's. It's a free walkaround if you do not want to do the paid tour. The staff were friendly and helpful, and you can spend as much time as you like looking around. Even the merchandise in the shop is reasonably priced and they have lots of Shelby merchandise you can buy.

    My boyfriend and I bought the family membership, and it’s already paid for itself. We used the discount at the cafe, and it was amazing! We got 10% off and only $60 for two people all year. Springs Preserve in Vegas is nothing short of beautiful.

    It also covers local history and the history of atomic weapons and energy. Since there is a lot of reading, as others have mentioned, you should bring headphones or earplugs to block out background noise and prevent distractions. It's a really charming little museum altogether, and the movies are excellent. Even though I was there for two hours, I was unable to read everything since it takes time.

    As a PD fan and weekly visitor to London, I found the exhibit to be the best. I have viewed various exhibits, including at Kensington Palace. This one included interesting and little known facts. Well worth the price.

    All of the good things in previous 5* Thrilla Villa reviews are true!
    My parents got me interested in Liberace’s music as a child. I learned so much about Liberace during this glimpse into his life!

    Jonathan Warren had so much knowledge and enthusiasm in conducting the tour. As someone who has sewing experience, I loved seeing Liberace’s costumes with the hand applied sequins, crystals, and lights ( before the invention of LEDs). You have to see the costumes up close to appreciate the detail and hours and hours of work each one took.

    Loved tve tour.

    This is a really cool place. There are tons of different rooms to explore, and the whole place is really pretty. My husband and I had a blast. The deduction of rating is for two things: the advertising makes it look better than it really is (although it is really beautiful and psychedelic), and the cost/value. It is a really unique experience, and I would suggest others check it out themselves as we had a lot of fun.

    We actually liked this more than we thought we would! I think it's worth the cost. Many cool things to see and lots of fun/funny photo opportunities. There were a few staff members to assist with photos. Better to go at an off time because it started to get pretty busy which makes the experience less enjoyable (obviously). Definitely worth a visit!

    My husband is a huge punk rock fan, and this is the coolest museum. (Supervised) they may allow you to play the actual guitar played by your favorite artist!
