Visit SiteLas Vegas offers many must-see attractions, and The Mob Museum is undoubtedly one of them. With countless awards, millions of happy visitors, and an experience unlike anything else in the world, The Mob Museum is sure to delight all who visit.
Visitors of The Mob Museum are offered a unique and immersive look at the effect of organized crime on Las Vegas and the rest of the United States. Delve into the personalities, stories, and events that created a public fascination with the underground life and witness the heroic efforts from law enforcement that finally brought them down. Through a collection of interactive exhibits and historic artifacts, The Mob Museum brings this historic period to life in ways you never thought possible.
Starting in the basement, visitors will find an exhibit about the road to prohibition, the movement which so greatly impacted to the rise of organized crime in the United States. The basement also contains an accurately modeled distillery, similar to the ones where illegal spirits were brewed, and a speakeasy, ground zero for every mob during the era. The first floor chronicles America’s first steps in fighting back. Here you will find a crime lab, as well as a firearm training facility. You’ll also get a peek at organized crime as it exists today, with a look at the rise of the dangerous drug cartels. The second floor provides a detailed view of Las Vegas' role in organized crime. You’ll see a recreation of a “skim room”, where mobsters funnelled legitimate profits into their illegal coffers, and how Sin City finally went straight.

Visiting The Mob Museum was one of the biggest highlights of my last Vegas trip! All the exhibits were intriguing and beautifully put together, there was even a spot to grab some snacks and drinks. We participated in the distillery tour as well, which was an awesome bonus. The layout of the displays was organized perfectly, with each floor leading to the next. Even though there was a focus on crime, any history buff would find this museum worthwhile, especially those interested in the history of Las Vegas, Prohibition and the G-men. There was a continuous flow of people, and coat check was available. All in all, the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly!

We had an awesome time at the museum! We took our time exploring the exhibits and then participated in the interactive firearm and crime lab experiences. The crime lab was by far our favorite part, but unfortunately, it didn't last long. Afterward, we headed to the Underground bar where the food and drinks were delightful and the staff were great! I highly suggest visiting this museum and trying the bar - you won't be disappointed!

We had a great time at the Mob Museum and I would recommend it to anyone who has never been there. But it's a little hard to justify the $30 price tag if you've seen it once. The museum has a lot of very interesting information and a few cool relics, but it's a lot more reading than what I was expecting. It was also super busy on Saturday and felt like you couldn't even read everything because someone was waiting for you to finish. I would give it 5 stars for a first-time visit, but probably only 3 stars if you've been there before. So a 4 star average.
