Our tour guide, Ron, provided us with awesome facts and recommendations. He was informative while at the same time throwing in the right amount of humor. At the beginning of the tour, he let us know that he also welcomes input from us at any time. I highly recommend this tour to those staying downtown or on the strip.

Really, it far exceeded my expectations!
