Informative and well researched tour. Tour guide was engaged and interested in what he was doing, and seemed to really love it. They took me to some places I didn't expect which was kinda cool and added to the experience. I would recommend the tour and company. I am definitely going back to do the Mob Tour next. Highly recommend.
Really excellent crime tour and highly recommended even if you aren't massively interested in crime but want to learn some fascinating Las Vegas history. Adam was a brilliant and genuinely enthusiastic tour guide! Makes such a difference when your guide is full of enthusiasm and knows their stuff. Super well researched and presented with audio and video footage of news reports from the time showing what happened just where you are currently parked. Really enhanced the overall experience. Learnt loads of Vegas facts I didn't know and we visited off the beaten track parts of Las Vegas.
Thank you very much for taking our tour and thank you for leaving this great review! We always aim to please and put together the best experience possible and are always updating and improving the experience. Please consider taking our Vegas Mob Tour during your next visit.
Highly recommend! Love the history and seeing parts of Vegas we had no clue existed. Adam brought us to a really somber memorial for the Route 91 shooting we would have never found on our own. I can’t tell you how much we appreciated it and learning about those peoples stories . Overall really fun facts and definitely watch the movie casino before you take the tour so you can see all the hot spots that were filmed in the movie ! Adam has definitely worked hard and consulted many people to get you the true facts and even some memorabilia from famous Vegas crimes ! We will definitely be taking his mob/ ghost tour as well when we come back ! Thanks Adam !
Thank you for this wonderful review! We appreciate you taking our tour and for taking the time to leave this review. We look forward to having you back on our other tours.
We were lucky enough to get Adam on a weekday tour so it was myself and my two daughters! The tour was really fascinating and showed a side of Vegas that one wouldn’t typically see. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to learn about various crimes that happened throughout Vegas while getting a chance to see where they actually happened!
Thank you so much for that kind review! Glad to hear that you and your family enjoyed the tour. We put a lot of work into creating this tour to ensure the authenticity and accuracy is... dead on.....no pun intended. Hope that you enjoyed the items we pass around inside the vehicle, including O.J. Simpson evidence. Please consider taking our Vegas Mob Tour during your future visits to Las Vegas. Its just as moving and riveting.
I've been on the Crime Tour, The Mob tour and the Good springs Ghost Tour over the last 4 years. Adam , the tour guide is awesome in his knowledge and entertaining character. If you go to Las Vegas spend your money in a way you can't lose! Go on any of the tours, you can't go wrong!
Thank you so much for this very wonderful review! Thank you for trusting Vegas Specialty Tours to entertain you while your visiting Vegas.
Enjoyed the crime tour very much. Very educational. Will come back and do another tour next time we are in Vegas. Highly recommend
Thank you for taking our Vegas Crime Tour. Please consider taking our Vegas Mob Tour on your next Vegas visit. P.S. Watch the movie Casino (1995) before this experience.
My wife and I visited Vegas this week and booked the Mob tour and then the Crime tour. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Vegas. We visited sites around the city and learned details of significant crimes in the past few years. Visiting the Mandalay Bay Memorial Park was so moving. The innocent people that lost there lives in this terrible event will bring tears to your eyes. You take this tours you will get the expierence of a lifetime.
We are happy to hear that the Vegas Crime Tour is just as moving as our Vegas Mob Tour. A story telling experience that can make you laugh, snicker, roll your eyes in bewilderment, and even tear up, is in our opinion a masterpiece. That is what we strive for as producers. Thank you for trusting us to entertain, educate and illuminate, in a town that is filled with sin, depravity, iniquity and criminality. There is always light and we are grateful you found that here.
Many things we didn’t know! Bringing the truth to us through massive research! This is the third tour we’ve done with Adam. We did the Vegas Crime Tour with a dinner (excellent) and The Rat Pack is back show. Good singers impersonated Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr. Good music and humor made it very enjoyable. Recommend these tours to locals and tourists alike !
Thank you very much for taking our tours and trusting Vegas Specialty Tours to provide you with an experience that not only educates you but also entertains you at the same time. We are currently offering the Vegas Crime Tour Untouchables Experience where you have a 3 course meal at the Tuscany Suites and Casino then have VIP seating during the Rat Pack is Back show inside the Copa Room.
Adam was an excellent guide. He used a headset/mic to tell us stories as we toured around town. He shared well-researched stories of true crime, told with compassion for the victims. Adam showed us short videos on a screen in the van to round out what he had shared with us. The surprise stop (I won’t divulge here) was moving. Adam was well prepared, passionate about sharing his knowledge with us and was engaging from start to finish. I highly recommend this tour for crime buffs, as well as those who just appreciate driving through the lesser traveled areas of Las Vegas.
Thank you so much for leaving this kind review about our newest tour! We spent over 12 months building this experience with a retired Metro Police Officer as our consultant so that we could get the facts, backstories, and fun cop stories to include on the tour. Thanks for not divulging the "Surprise Stop" it is very moving and special. Hope to have you back in the future on our Vegas Mob Tour. P.S. If you have watched the movie "Casino 1995" you will love this tour!
Great tour with a wonderful and friendly tour guide Adam. Fun, touching and educational. See Las Vegas in a different light. Highly recommend.
We spent 1 year researching and putting this together. We are glad to heat this! Thank you for letting us be your entertainment provider. .
