Circus Circus Las Vegas: Mob & Ghost History Walking Tour
Multiple dates
Overview
Walk the haunted halls of Circus Circus — hear the ghost stories & mob history behind the first family-friendly casino that wasn't.
What You'll Experience
Circus Circus opened in 1968 as Vegas' first "family casino." Behind the big top, the mob was running the show. This guided walking tour reveals the real history hiding behind the clowns and midway games.
