Detailed itinerary

Tour starts at Fergusons Downtown - a vintage hotel from the 1960's turned into a Vegas local hideaway of shops, artist, curators and restaurants.

A Newly Remodeled Mid- Century Modern Boutique Hotel. Well-placed in the restaurants, casinos, nightlife area of Las Vegas. The surrounding area is full of street area we will visit.

The oldest bar in Las Vegas and first to have a tavern license to sell liquor. A historic haunt of Vegas locals and hot spot for past celebrities looking for a local escape!

Stop 4

Container is an open-air shopping center made of shipping containers filled with boutique retail shops, unique restaurants, and live entertainment - located in the heart of Fremont and Las Vegas.

Stop 5

Built in the 1940's, Vegas's longest continuously operating casino. Uinque in design, spanish revival after a beachside resort in Mexico, it hosts coin slots, a barbershop speakeasy, $18 prime rib special, happy hours and bratwurst from a Mango Cart beer stand!

Downtown Art Alley

Stop 7

We'll walk through several hotels on Fremont under the Fremont Street light canopy. Pass by a shrk tank, golden nugget, chihuly art, point out food and drink deals along the way, rotating bar with a view of Fremont, rooftop steakhouse with a view of Fremont, vintage wedding chapel, the Mayors steakhouse, where the Hawaiians gamble, Winston Churhills old pool tables, pass by a peice of the Berlin Wall you can pee on (Mens Restroom), gold doors from the royal bank of Kuwait and more!

Main Street Station is a Victorian-era, antique-filled hotel and casino in downtown Las Vegas. It has a 28,000 sq ft gaming floor, vintage slot machines, and classic table games. The decor brims with curiosities — from railroad cars to a piece of the Berlin Wall. Its on-site Triple 7 microbrewery serves house-brewed beers in a relaxed, old-world pub setting. It feels like a charming step back in time rather than the glitzy chaos of the Strip.
