Dear Vegas Mob Tour:
Bobbie the guide was GREAT! Everyone enjoyed him very much. His enthusiasm and
passion certainly made the trip exciting and interesting. The driver was very
good too.
Needless to say, the group enjoyed the Vegas Mob Tour.
Thank you for making this adventure a most successful one for our seniors and
our center. We are very grateful.

This tour is amazing! I absolutely loved it. I took my husband on this tour
because he loves things that have to do with the Italian MAFIA. He had a great
time. The tour guide was perfect for this tour. He was Italian, dressed for the
part, and it made you feel almost like you were on this tour with a 'made man'.
He was well informed and really put the life into this tour. My husband and I
were shocked that the guide knew more about the MAFIA than my husband does. This
tour takes you to all the spots where mob activity was going on. It tells you,
in detail, about all of the people involved with the mafia that worked in Las
Vegas. It shows you their pictures and it even gives you the information that
you can compare to the movie Casino, which apparently is very accurate, aside
from leaving out some of the gruesome details. This tour is definitely more than
worth the money, and I would recommend it to anyone. When you come to Vegas this
is a must!!!! You haven't experience Vegas until you have gone on The Vegas Mob
Tour. By the way did I mention WE absolutely LOVED it because we did. My husband
being Italian and knowing lots about this said it was great so take it from him
GO ON THIS TOUR!!!!!

Excellent! We had a great tour guide who really did know his stuff. This was one
of the highlights of our trip. I would definitely recommend it.

I really enjoyed the Vegas Mob tour! Though it's not a glitzy tour, it was
really interesting to hear the insider history of the mob in Vegas. Our guide
was a font of knowledge and had actually talked with a lot of the FBI and mob
people involved in Las Vegas. If you're a fan of the movie Casino you cannot
miss this tour -- a lot of the sites from the movie are visited, and there is a
lot of detail about the operations at the Stardust. I found the whole experience
fascinating, and a really unique experience.

I just
wanted to let you guys know how great of a time my cousins and I had on the tour
that we took on Thursday April 24th. Our tour guide was Adam (the former
magician). Our tour was great, beginning our guide. He played the part, and was
very enthusiastic about the subject matter. He held our attention the whole
time, even though we were terribly jet lagged
from arriving from the East Coast that day. His knowledge of the mafia and it's
history in Las Vegas was incredible. There was never a dull moment on the whole
tour. I immediately rented the movie "Casino" when I returned home several days
later, and could relate it to the tour. But I haven't stopped there. Although
I've always been interested in mafia history, the tour has piqued my interest
even more. I have begun to do more research and will be my own expert soon! Adam
is a great asset to
the staff, and when I come back to LV, I would love to take the tour again. My
other cousins also share my sentiment. We all had a great time. Too bad we
missed Mr. Cullotta, who Adam said was scheduled to be on the tour that
following Monday. But thanks to you all for putting this tour together. I plan
to tell anyone I know headed to LV to make sure they take this tour!

Many thanks for a fantastic Mob Tour last night . Angela and myself had a
wonderful time. Thanks to our guide who is a excellent Host and storyteller.
Also hats off to your friendly staff. I know for sure we will be attending
another tour again soon, and we are looking forward to the Haunted Tour as well.
Thanks again for a great night!

My
girlfriend and I came in from Boston for the week and we decided to take
your Vegas Mob Tour. Chicago Bob was the best tour guide we have ever seen.
His combination of knowledge of the Mob and his mobster swagger make this tour
something incredible. I will make it my duty to recommend this tour to
everyone that I know who plans a trip to Vegas. P.S. I'm thinking
of taking your Haunted tour when I come back. - John Russo - New Jersey
YOU GUYS HAVE THE FINEST, MOST OUTSTANDING TOUR I HAVE EVER BEEN ON
AND I LOVED IT . YOUR WEB SITE IS JUST TERRIFIC. I HOPE TO VISIT YOU AGAIN
SOON. AGAIN GREAT JOB AND YOUR TOUR GUIDE ADAM WAS JUST BRILLIANT. THANK YOU
GUYS FOR A FABULOUS TIME AND A TRULY SPECTACULAR TOUR! BEST OF LUCK ! I
GIVE IT A 5 ***** STAR RATING! - JOEL ~ IOWA
I
have been a longtime fan of Gangster and Mob stories for years. That is why when
I heard about your Vegas Mob Tour I had to go. Let me tell you that you guys put
on one hell of a tour. I learned more about the mob on your tour than I got out
of 10 books. I had a great time and will tell all my friends about you. - Max-

I have been on several of your Mob Tours - I am cabin crew for a British airline
and we stay at the Greek Isles Hotel when in Vegas. I find the tour fantastic,
informative and great value for money !!! - Best Regards Michael Love - London
Last night’s Vegas Mob Tour was not your normal Vegas mob tour that leaves the
Greek Isles Casino every other night. Last night was special. It contained
narration from the men who inspired the tour. Frank Cullotta, the ex-mobster
turned Government witness. Dennis Arnoldy, retired FBI agent who went after
Cullotta and his gang, and Dennis Griffin, the man who wrote about them in his
books “Battle for Las Vegas” and his newest “Cullotta” Frank surprised the
guests by catching up with the bus on the streets at the location of the
infamous Bertha’s Jewelry Store heist. This is where everything started to
unravel for Frank, Tony Spilotro and the Mob. That’s where the tour got
interesting. As two men, once enemies now friends, took us on their tour of the
old neighborhood.
If
you read the book “Battle for Las Vegas”, or get a chance to read the newest one
“Cullotta” you will understand that Frank talks very straight forward, nothing
improvised or pumped up. It’s frank in normal conversation mode. So now the bus
is stopped near one of the old neighborhoods, Frank starts talking about the
Listner murder he committed just a few houses down from where we are parked.
Later Frank is telling another story as the bus stops outside the place where
Frank’s pizza joint used to sit. He started to tell us about being out on the
patio, messing with the hidden FBI agents they knew were watching them.
Listening to Frank talk, you could see yourself sitting out there with him. Warm
night, cold beer and fresh pizza. The Vegas neon just down the road.
Frank’s walk down memory road being punctuated on occasion by banter and stories
from his nemesis on the other side of the law, and now the isle, retired FBI
Agent, Dennis Arnoldy. It was truly a once in a life time event to be with two
men from opposite sides of the fence, riding back in time to talk to us about
the old neighborhood. Along with the man who brought them all together to help
tell the story, Author Dennis Griffin.
History made, History relived by the men who made it. It was an Awesome night! -

I
loved the Mob Tour and will definitely recommend it to anyone I know going to
Vegas. The tour guide Adam was great, he knew his stuff! I was so pleased to
pick up a copy of Cullotta on the tour and I started reading it last night, I
didn't want to put it down! I also listened to the Vegas Tourist interview with
Denny, Frank and Dennis on my way to Vegas, it was great!
