Eddie was great. He was a good storyteller and able to answer our questions. He accomodated bathroom breaks. Wondering why the tour ended in Container Area?? It did not seem relevant to tour or information given on tour. Pics on IPad to pass around would be a more effective way to enhance stories instead of 3 ring binder. Less details about stories and more stories shared would have been more enjoyable.
Our host was very friendly and had great knowledge of the Vegas scene!

We thoroughly enjoyed our 2.5hrs tour with Eddy who is approachable and regales tales of true crime and mob activity - the tour does allow for opportunities to sit down so you are not on your feet all the time and takes you in and out of casinos in the Fremont area. We left the tour very happy with our experience.

Eddy was an excellent host. He was very knowledgeable and had gone to great lengths to research the subject. There wasn’t a lot of walking involved for those worried about walking miles (easily done in Vegas!). If you are looking for a couple of hours of informative history, this is definitely the one for you.
The deeper research and storytelling are a big part of what make this walking tour stand out, so it’s great to hear that came through. We’re also glad the pace felt comfortable and easy to enjoy. Really appreciate the recommendation, Richard, and happy you chose to spend a couple of hours exploring Vegas history with us.

This tour was great! We have been to Vegas a lot but had no idea about the history of the casinos. Our tour guide, Eddy, has done his homework! He's very knowledgeable about the area's stories and great at injecting humor to keep it fun. This was a great way to spend a few hours and we got tons of ideas about what to do next in Vegas - plus some great restaurant recommendations! Must do!
