The Vegas Mob Tour is a two and
a half hour bus tour that
reveals the sordid history of
Las Vegas. According to Robert
Allen, CEO and founder, " People
are fascinated by anything about
Las Vegas. They want to hear
about the celebrities, the
casinos, the mob and all that's
synonymous with this town."
Allen says he based his tour on
the stories found in the popular
book "The Battle for Las Vegas"
written by well known author
Dennis Griffin and personal
interviews with Dennis Arnoldy,
retired FBI Special Agent.
The experience begins with tales
about the mob's connection with
Vegas. You'll visit the sites
where murders, strange
disappearances and mob activity
occurred. Your tour guides,
dressed in Pinstriped Suits and
Fedoras, weave "eerie" stories
about Las Vegas' darkest
secrets. Strange tales of Sin
City's colorful past fill the
air.
You will hear about the
notorious gangster/casino
builder Benjamin "Bugsy" Siegel
and infamous mob enforcers Tony
"The Ant" Spilotro and Frank
Cullotta. Guests learn the
truth about casino boss Frank "Lefty"Rosenthal,
as well as celebrity deaths,
suicides and many other strange
and puzzling Nevada mysteries.
One of the
highlights of the tour is a
visit to the crime scene where
Tupac Shakur was gunned down in
front of a well known Vegas
casino.
If you are looking for something
different "The Vegas Mob Tour"
provides a spine tingling look
into the dark and mysterious
side of the Neon City!
Update
2007:
Now Robert
Allen has added another
one-of-a-kind source of
information: a real-life
gangster and mob hit man. Frank
Cullotta, former
mobster-turned-government
witness, has provided his
personal insights to Allen and
his guides. Cullotta was the
boss of Tony “the Ant”
Spilotro’s crew of burglars,
robbers, and killers who ran the
Las Vegas underworld during the
1970s through the mid-1980s. He
served as a technical advisor to
the 1995 movie Casino, in
which actor Joe Pesci played a
character based on Spilotro. He
also appeared in several scenes
in the role of a hit man. This
type of inside information isn’t
available anywhere else, making
Robert Allen’s Vegas Mob Tour
the most factually correct
excursion of its kind in Las
Vegas.
