The Vegas Mob Tour

You'll visit sites were murders, strange disappearances and mob activity occurred. Tour is based on "The Battle for Las Vegas" written by well known author Dennis Griffin and personal interviews with Dennis Arnoldy, retired FBI Special Agent.

Day 1 :

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.

Now 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.

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.
