Inside and out I love Las Vegas. AND I am passionate about sharing my love of my unique and breathtaking city. I am a retired history teacher and author, including The Brit's Guide to Las Vegas (Foulsham Press, 2008) GO WHERE OTHERS DON'T The most amazing parts of Las Vegas aren't blazing on the corner. The real cool stuff is in the back and around the corner. I know all the corners. HEAR THE STORIES OTHERS NEVER HEAR Las Vegas was not made by casinos, but by men and women, ranchers and mobsters, headliners and lounge lizards, sharps and squares. Their stories will dazzle you. AN EXPERT GUIDE I've been called an "expert story teller, " and "extremely knowledgeable, " as well as "folksy and fun. " I can't argue with that. WOULD YOU LIKE SOMETHING DIFFERENT? Marriage proposal? Corporate Team Building? Paranormal and where are all the mob bodies buried? Reality Show Tour? I'll put together an amazing experience crafted uniquely for you. Please send me a message. Let me know the dates you are traveling, the number of people in your party, and as much information as you can about what you would like to do. Or, if you like any of my basic tours, you can immediately book from my tour pages. WHO I AM As for me I am an ex-US Army guy. When I got out, sheer jealousy made me join my wife as a teacher - she was getting all those eight week summer vacations! Together we taught in Arizona and California and eight wonderful years in Ecuador. When it was time to turn in my grade book I turned to leading tours. First I worked for an excellent tour company, learning to translate my knowledge of history and geology into small group centered fun trips and always giving my clients the most memorable experience. I struck out on my own four years ago and I strive to give each tour member on every tour a 5-Star experience. As I like to say, with me it is your tour. I am just along to make your tour super special. WHAT I DO I primarily do half day and full day tours with Las Vegas as my center of operations. My first love is small group walking tours of the Las Vegas Strip and the Downtown Fremont Street Experience. Close seconds are my intimate private tours to places like Red Rock Canyon, Valley of Fire and many of the other near-to-Vegas wonders, where I can give a quirky historian's side take on some of the great wonders of the world. I am a member in good standing with the Las Vegas Tourist Guide Guild. I was also named Best Local Guide by the Las Vegas Visitor Guide 2023. I offer private tours throughout Las Vegas, including tours centered on themes of Mob Las Vegas, Rat Pack Las Vegas, Haunted Las Vegas, Ecological Las Vegas and Reality Show Las Vegas. I also provide day (and rarely multi-day) tours to such wonderful local and regional attractions such as Area 51/Alien Highway, Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, Lake Mead National Recreation Area, Hoover Dam, Grand Canyon (West Rim), Grand Canyon (South Rim), Monument Valley, Valley of Fire, Bryce Canyon, Zion National Park and Death Valley. But I always strive to show my folks a great time with my off beat humor and deep love for all things Las Vegas. I can't wait to show my city to you!
