Meet at The Plaza Hotel & Casino
Your adventure begins at the iconic Plaza Hotel & Casino, located at the historic heart of Las Vegas. As the city’s original crossroads, this is where the Vegas story began. From here, your guide will escort you to one of downtown’s longest-running live music clubs. Settle in with your choice of a craft cocktail or beer as your guide shares captivating tales of Las Vegas—from its Wild West roots and Mob-run heyday to the vibrant city it is today. (30 mins)
The Fremont Street Experience
After your first drink, dive into the electric atmosphere of the Fremont Street Experience. Your guide will take you past Block 16, the original red-light district and bar zone, and through both the newest and most historic casinos on Fremont. Along the way, you’ll see legendary sights like Vegas Vic & Vegas Vickie – the iconic neon cowboy and cowgirl, the World’s Largest Sportsbook, And Viva Vision – the largest video screen in the world, stretching overhead for five full blocks. (30 mins)
Downtown Grand
Next, venture off the main drag and into the Downtown Grand, home to some of the most affordable table games in Las Vegas. Tucked in the back is a hidden gem—a cozy jazz and blues bar where you’ll enjoy your second drink, choosing from a menu of signature craft cocktails. Just steps away, you’ll get a peek at the Mob Museum, one of the city’s most revered cultural landmarks. (35 mins)
El Cortez Hotel & Casino
Your third stop is the legendary El Cortez, one of the oldest continuously operating casinos in Las Vegas and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Once owned by infamous mobsters Bugsy Siegel and Meyer Lansky, the El Cortez oozes vintage Vegas charm. Inside, you’ll enjoy a cocktail at a retro-style bar that perfectly captures the spirit of old-school Sin City. (35 mins)
Downtown Container Park
To cap off your happy hour journey, your guide will lead you to the innovative Downtown Container Park, a 20,000-square-foot open-air shopping and entertainment complex built from repurposed shipping containers. It’s a lively, modern twist on the Fremont Street experience—and the perfect place to wrap up the evening. Before parting ways, your guide will provide personalized recommendations for where to eat, drink, and party next in the ever-evolving Downtown Las Vegas scene.

Reviews

“This was such a fun experience. The speakeasy at the Mob Museum is an experience all in itself. *check for secret rooms!* Mob ties are a known thing in Vegas, but Jordan ties in some really cool fun facts that we didn’t know before the tour! We walked into casinos that we never would have without him guiding us.”

“We enjoyed our first tour with Jordan so much we figured why not try another. We love to support local businesses and we are also fans of delicious cocktails. So this tour was a great pick for us! If you like cocktails, unique spots and downtown Las Vegas this is the tour for you!”

“Every local knows that downtown Vegas is the best, but even I didn’t know all the places that my tour guide Jordan took us. It’s really interesting to learn more about Vegas while getting drinks in less known places. Highly recommend for tourists and locals!”
