Maybe because I've been to the Smithsonian, or maybe because I'm from New York. I didn't find this interesting or worth the money. Also some of the tour information was very glossy completely skipping over things like mob involvement, etc. The Binion murder was never mentioned. The signs are not restored and kind of look like dinosaues.

I was able to get a tour here mid-week only two days ahead of time. They handed out bottled water and sunscreen before the tour which was a nice touch. The tour lasted about 45 minutes, which was just long enough in the hot, sunny weather. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, and it was neat seeing how the signs...

For some, the strip is the glitz, glamour, stage shows, gambling and other things. But for me and my husband, we like Fremont Street and the old neon signs that used to be on the Strip before it became so smart and trendy.
To visit, you have to go north on Las Vegas Boulevard, and there is the Neon Museum....

You have to book this online, ahead of time and it's $15 per person but worth every penny!

The non-profit group behind this museum has done a stellar job, they are incredibly friendly and are enthusiastic about their mission and sharing the historical signage with those who visit. Get a feel for how Vegas once was and learn the fun and crazy history behind the sign pieces this museum has amassed so far.
We visited on a chilly,...

Great place to see. Downtown and takes about an hour and a half. It is not officially a museum as of yet, so you have to sign up online. Its a must do if you plan of visiting downtown.

It really was a very informative, interesting tour and I would recommend...
