Before you set off.

Is this a guided group tour?

No. Explore independently, around your own plans. You choose when to start and how long to spend at each stop.

Does the Pass cover just this tour?

One $15 Pass covers the included tours and discoveries across the Strip and Downtown for 14 days from activation. You can choose another walk during the same stay.

Can I listen rather than read?

Audio narration is at the heart of Vegas Retold. Written accounts let you read along or explore without headphones.

How much time should I allow?

Leave time to listen and look around. Any walking estimate shown here covers the mapped walk; listening, crossings and time inside each property are extra.

What should I check before visiting?

Check current opening times, signs and access at each property. Maps and historical accounts do not guarantee an open entrance or a step-free route.
