I didn't feel crowded in or crushed anywhere. There were many interesting photo opportunities. It was GREAT of the museum to notify you about some rooms that might make some people feel unbalanced.

In our case, I am a local, I went with my 5 year old grandson and my 81 year old friend. I had a chose of not going in or paying "VIP" PRICING -- $82 per ticket, no local discount, no age discount. What do you get? Shorter line to get in -- for a moment -- then you merge with everyone else. You wait on same lines for slides, ice cream, etc. The quality of that ice cream is average, the soft serve is below average, the topping cheap. I had expected - and I read a lot of about it -- a fun experience, with good ice cream, and highly engaged staff. The staff was fine, however, they were more like crowd watchers than engaged staff. They fooled me once, and they will never fool me again. However, AREA 15 is well worth it in so many other ways.

We told her we were just looking and she said we weren't allowed to "just look" we needed to find something we would want, we could give her a budget and she could help us find something.

A great example of that is Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Garden. Located inside the Bellagio, one of the nicer hotels on the Strip, this is a little oasis in a bustling casino. As the name indicates, you'll find a lot of cool plants. But beyond that, the design of the area is great. It's beautiful. On my last trip, it was decorated for Lunar New Year. You'll see a bunch of people taking pictures. You won't be alone, but it's a nice place to spend five to ten minutes. Don't miss it!

Omega Mart was probably my favorite experience on the trip. My wife and I got really into the storyline and spent an entire afternoon solving one of the big mysteries. Omega Mart is a lot smaller than the Denver location, but I found the stories a lot easier to follow. I also liked that you could buy items from the Omega Mart in addition to the regular gift shop. Also, don't sleep on the cocktail bar and don't be afraid to try the Windex-blue-colored old fashioned.

If you hear a voice within you say 'you cannot paint,' then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced." Vincent Van Gogh Van Gogh painted as a way to make his inner soul happy and shine. He painted from the heart. He loved nature, the night and the mundane things in life . Just people watching he did this as his art of painting! A troubled artist that "painted," a man who did not know he was talented! Come and explore his life through an immersive experience of art . The world of Van Gogh comes to life here. You can feel the world, the power of his life and art with real life. The music and artist who painted the famous Starry Night . Stand strong within the brush strokes of his art. They have given Van Gogh a chance to shine . Now I've been questioned on the value of this particular experience. For someone who doesn't put a value on an event, price is not an object. For the main purpose of attendance to this event was for my daughter. She has been wanting to go here and price an object for her; let's just say, "it's going to make her happy, it's happening." Sometimes my young daughter is plagued by troubles of the heart from the past. She can relate some of the pain of her childhood to Van Gogh perhaps . Here we sit together and experiencing life together . No matter what your situation or circumstances this particular show will show you moments of a man that never achieved anything until he pasted. He left lost pictures that can be viewed now here in this immersive event . The staff was warm and welcoming.

The swirling skies and bold brushstrokes flow across the walls, creating a dreamlike atmosphere that captures Van Gogh's emotional intensity.

It may not replace seeing original works in a museum, but it offers a memorable, sensory-rich perspective on one of history's most influential artists.

It featured examples of animal mummies from ancient Egypt, as well as beautiful examples of Greek sculpture, and even early Christian sculpture. We also enjoyed the part of the show that demonstrated how x-rays were used to reveal what was inside the mummy wrappings of these beloved and revered animals. This gallery is like a mini-museum and is well worth the time to explore if you are in Las Vegas.

Quick search on Yelp & Google, and knew this was gonna be THE spot. With down time finally in our favor, we stopped by on a Monday afternoon. Took the elevator up and paid at the register. I asked if cash and/ or card are accepted, but it's card only. There are complimentary lockers available before walking into the museum. Watch the quick 2 minute video and away you go. Next to every display or immersive exhibit, you can read what is happening. And why you are experiencing this special effect. It's a great flow of exhibits. And if one particular area is crowded, you can continue on exploring. And return back to the previous one. Staff is so friendly with photo opportunity suggestions. * Restrooms are located near the slot machine/ pole dance area! There are WARNING signs if you have sensitivity to flashing/ strobing lights. Some rooms can be a bit darker while throughout the museum is well lit. The optical illusion to some of the exhibits can cause dizziness. Even the graphic geometric patterns you'll see throughout. Very budget friendly. And from a previous review I read on Yelp, you can also find discounts directly on their website. You'll exit at the gift sho

We were able to snag our tickets from Groupon and got the Gondola Ride package. If you're getting your tickets from Groupon, I recommend that package deal. The staff was friendly and directed us to where we needed to go, and they also helped take some of our pictures. Many of the wax figures look realistic (which was a bit scary up close lol), but it was still fun. I liked that the staff allows you to get as close as you want to the figures to take pictures and really observe the art pieces. We also learned from the staff that the sculptures are built to the same height as the celebrities, which was cool because we got to get a glimpse of different celebrities' heights and guess what we thought they would be versus what they actually were when we stood next to them. This was a fun game we played as we went around. I liked that every section had its own theme and music, like actors, '90s artists, 2010s, etc. As you get closer to the end of the museum, there's a Marvel section with a 4D theater. The movie is free and about 10 minutes long. It was a cool animated experience with 4D elements, if you have time, I recommend checking it out. After we finished going through the museum, we went on the Gondola Ride, which is based on the gondola rides in Venice. Such a peaceful moment, you really feel as if you're in Venice. Our gondolier was very nice and had an amazing voice. I liked how he gave us the history of why a version of the gondola ride was made in Vegas and the meaning behind certain songs he sang. Overall, I had a great experience, and I would go back again!
