Fremont Street Experience, Downtown Las Vegas
Walking the five-block stretch of the Fremont Street Experience between Las Vegas Boulevard and Main Street is like taking a stroll through the annals of Vegas history. This is the original neon strip of Las Vegas known as Glitter Gulch or simply, Downtown. If you are looking for an authentic Vegas experience, this is the place to come. The historic neon facades still light up storied casinos like Binion’s, the Golden Nugget and the Fremont, all just a few steps from one another. In fact, there are 10 casinos within walking distance, including the 101-year-old Golden Gate, the Four Queens, Vegas Club and Fitzgeralds. The area is covered by the four-block long Viva Vision screen that shows dazzling mini-movies every night. And while this cluster of classic casinos is located less than two miles north of the corporate mega resorts of the modern day Strip, the intimate downtown atmosphere is quite distinct. A little more casual and relaxed, Fremont Street is for real people looking for real action in the real Vegas! The confirmed participating properties for the post tour include The Plaza, Vegas Club, Main Street Station, Fitzgeralds and the Four Queens. www.vegasexperience.com (702) 678-5600
