About this activity

Your 2-hour walking tour begins when you meet your guide on the famed Fremont Street in downtown Las Vegas. Located in the heart of downtown’s Casino Corridor, Fremont Street can be spotted in famous Las Vegas photos and film scenes.

On this 1.5-mile (2.5-km) tour, you’re also bound to learn things you didn’t even imagine existed off the Strip, let alone Las Vegas. Discover the joys of randomness found in this part of town: a piece of the Berlin Wall in a men’s bathroom, a 19th-century chandelier from the San Francisco Opera House and 1870s street lamps from Brussels.

Check out where Old Blue Eyes and the rest of the Rat Pack used to hang out and walk under the Fremont Street Experience’s canopy of lights in a pedestrian mall while walking past historic casinos like the Golden Gate, Fremont and El Cortez. You might even spot Pawn Stars’ toy appraiser, Johnny Jimenez, tinkering around at the Toy Shack.

For an example in the art of urban revitalization, visit the Fremont East Entertainment District, home to dozens of new restaurants, galleries, entertainment venues and attractions. Explore the Container Park, a shopping and entertainment center built from shipping containers and see the old City Hall, which has been turned into the Zappos headquarters. By the end of the tour you’ll have a fantastic overview of this fascinating corner of Las Vegas.

Love the show Pawn Stars? Upgrade your 2-hour walking tour to add a 30-minute walk past historic chapels and city buildings to the Gold & Silver Pawn store made famous by History Channel's popular television show Pawn Stars. If you’re lucky, you might just see Rick, Big Hoss and Chumlee making a deal!

Please note: The tour stops outside of business and establishments to allow for discussion and viewing photos (if applicable) but has no planned excursions inside any establishments (with exception of Downtown Container Park). Pawn Star upgrade ends at the Gold & Silver Pawn where you will be free to browse and shop but does not guarantee entry due to filming, long lines, etc.

Do this tour on your first day because it will make you want to visit places downtown that you might miss if you only visit the strip! Great storyteller. The two hours passed quickly even in the extreme heat!

The tour guide provided a detailed history of Las Vegas and the present renovation of downtown Las Vegas (Fremont Street). In addition guidelines as to where to eat (drink) and gamble were provided along with coupons for certain attractions/restaurant.

This was a really well done tour, and our entire family enjoyed it, even our 12-year old son. Our guide provided an ear piece to each of us so he could be heard despite the noise all around us. We learned lots of great info and history, and out of all of the tours we took around Las Vegas, Kelly seemed to be the most accurate and up-to-date with his information. Our only (minor) complaint would be that we got tired of standing by the end of the 2 hours. At least the tour ends in a place you can sit down and find drinks and ice cream and bathrooms very close by!

Kelly was fantastic. Knowledgeable and professional. Would recommend this walking tour for anyone who wants to be informed about the history and current aspects of the Fremont area.

Kelly is an outstanding guide. This was the second time I have taken this tour. I went with a friend this time and wasn't bored repeating the tour because there is so much information packed into it! Loved hearing the history, learning about the casinos, and of course, the great food tips!

Great walking tour which covered the history well and for sure opened our eyes as to how this district has been re-vitalised and is now a vibrant centre once again. Guide was really enthusiastic and looked after the group well.
