04.05.24 Located at Horseshoe Las Vegas

Displays of the human anatomy [Las Vegas NV] I'm not sure if this is the same exhibit as the one in Luxor that we also visited many years ago but this Real Bodies exhibit is located on the lower level at the Horseshoe (formerly Ballys). The displays are preserved real human bodies, specimens, and art installations. For me the exhibit I found most interesting was the comparison between a smoker's and non-smoker's lungs. That's powerful stuff and some visitors have chucked those smokes away in a clear glass case. Let's hope to have that case filled. Real Bodies did a great job in displaying the specimens and we found them both educational and informative. Like did you know babies are born with 300 bones, while adults only have 206? Where do they go!? And that the average speed of a sneeze is about 100 miles per hour? whoa... please cover mouth when sneezing. The Wall of Bones exhibit was modeled after an Ossuary. The catacombs in Paris are the most famous example of an Ossuary. The Love locks on the fence was interesting too. I was more interested with the exhibit than my hubby was, who found them morbid.

Located in the Horseshoe Casino Real Bodies was definitely my favorite! It's a display of human bodies illustrating various aspects of anatomy, medicine, birth & death. Mind blowing is an understatement!

If you are in Vegas this is a must see and currently on display at the Horseshoe Casino. I learned so much about this fragile vessel that we call the human body. To learn how it works from the womb to the tomb was absolutely amazing. They also have an app where you can listen to a guided tour or go and just read on your own. They also have a bar across the way but if you go to the early Real Bodies tour at 11am be prepared to not go to the bar as it opens at 1pm. The staff is so helpful and cool and willing to share their knowledge about the exhibit.

I had a wonderful admiring the intricate and precise cadavers on display, especially as someone who has very recently participated in dissecting a cadaver personally. They do a wonderful job of being able to see everything clearly as well as labeling the more obvious structures. I appreciated the layout based on certain body systems as well as the descriptions of each. I would definitely come again the next time I am in the area!

An amazing experience. I loved it. The fetal was a little jarring to see in person, but this whole exhibit was tastefully done. I would fully recommend everyone visit.

This Exhibit really opened my eyes to how fragile our bodies are. There are so many individual components that are packed tightly inside of our bodies, and they all work together simultaneously to keep us alive, strong and healthy. Although we mistreat our bodies day in and day out, our bodies are mostly capable of regenerating and healing itself over time. It's pretty awesome to get a chance to get up close and personal to see and learn about the human body in all its glory. Located in Horseshoe Hotel/Casino (Formally Bally's), the Real Bodies exhibit is very easy to find. Just follow the signs. If you are driving, the parking garage behind Paris is the closest, it's roughly a 10 minute walk after you've parked. Locals can park for free up to 3 hours, and non-locals get free parking for the first hour. As for entry tickets, you can either buy your tickets online, or wait until you arrive and buy them at the entrance. Locals get a discount off of the ticket price, so make sure to bring your Nevada ID to get your discount. The exhibit is a lot bigger than I thought it would be. Although these are "Real Bodies", the displays are very informative and you really get the feeling that each body was handled with dignity, respect, and thoughtful consideration of how it would be displayed. I visited shortly after noon on Monday and there was no crowd. I spent almost 2.5 hours here reading and looking at everything thoroughly. Some people trickled in and out while I was here, but it never got crowded during my visit. Overall, this is a great exhibit if you're interested in learning more about your own body. I'm not in the medical field, so this was my crash course on the human body and all it's functions. I don't recommend this exhibit for children under 13 years, as some of the contents might be disturbing for them. Highly Recommended!

Overrated. The exhibit was extremely small and not worth the high admission prices. I went to something similar years ago in LA Science Center, and it so much better than this one. Some of the stuff on display was cool, but totally not worth the price of admission. If you can get discounted tix, it would be better. Still not good, but better.

I totally missed this exhibit when it was here in LA, but of course since I'm in Vegas all the time I was super lucky to see it here at Ballys. Thank you Caesars for the Diamond reward perk! This place is located downstairs, just follow the signs and located right next to the escalators. It's pretty much a self guided tour and there is a lot to see and read. If you intend to read every single signage, you'll probably be here at least 90 minutes. We skimmed through some and read only the ones interested by us and that took 45 minutes. There are so much to learn, but my favorite is the cardiovascular system. There was a body here that was divided in three lengthwise that I found particularly educational. There were monitors that connect the bodies and the covid connection as well. Parking in the shared Ballys /Paris lot. BTW there is an EV charger there on the 1st floor you will not see on Chargepoint and pretty much anywhere else. To all electric car drivers, it's our little secret okay?

I've always liked the bodies exhibit. I went years ago when it was first here and again with family. There's something about the way they show you just how incredible the human body is. While I would love more informative facts as the original had, this exhibit was great to. Not very crowded and a walk yourself tour makes it easy to go at your own pace so you can focus on the parts that are more interesting to you.

During my trip to Vegas, I decided to try out the Real Bodies experience at Bally's. It was definitely interesting to say the least. Here's some quick pros/cons of the experience: Pro- Such an awesome learning experience! Seeing the human body and literally everything that happens inside of it was simply amazing. The information is also pretty digestible (no super difficult doctor language) and the journey throughout the exhibit is almost like a "journey" through life. Kinda tough to explain, but once you experience it you'll see what I mean. Cons- It's more so bittersweet then it is a con, but seeing these real human bodies exposed, dissected, and presented like that left me a bit sad. I know it's for a good cause, but given the history/theories of where these bodies came from and similar situations that have happened in our country and other places in the past, the experience did leave a bit of a eerie feeling. Aside from that, the exhibit was good and unlike anything I've ever done before. Can't say I'll do it again honestly (just because of the eerie feeling) but that's just my personal preference. I would definitely recommend it if you've never been before, so you can make the decision for yourself. Lastly a few friendly tips: - check Groupon / Las Vegas Go passes to see if they have any deals for the exhibit and other experiences. It'll Save you some money. - if you have kids, be ready to do a lot of explaining because they literally have EVERYTHING out. Do with that as you well. -the exhibit is a short one, so take your time when you go through. If you read the information and get a few good photos, it should take you maybe 20-25 minutes. Enjoy!

Very cool experience! For those fascinated with anatomy, this is a cool little walk through experience detailing how the human body works with a visual learning experience. I would highly recommend this for all ages. For the best deals, I would recommend using Groupon unless they have a better deal at the ticketing desk at the time. The military discount is only a dollar and you get a couple more off on Groupon. Overall a great experience!

This was a cool museum! It was a bit of a ways down the strip for us to walk, but it was a nice day. It feels like a small building, but the setup does have many rooms and a very smooth transition from room to room. The bodies are very cool and it's very educational how things are labeled and that they are REAL people! Some of the displays are quite artistic. I really enjoyed walking through this exhibit! It felt like the covid was noted, like we stayed away from everyone else, but it wasn't like crazy precaution. There were some interesting covid facts around as well which was informative! I'd recommend if you're in the area and you're intrigued by medical stuff, take some time to participate in this experience. I think we spent a little over an hour here, I did feel like it was worth what we paid for the tickets!

Stephanie M.

Great exhibit ! I've gone to the other bodies museum in Luxor twice so when I saw this one was part of the Go City pass for Vegas I just had to go ! So many fascinating bodies and facts on display. Wasn't a super large space but we visited on a Friday around 7pm and it was empty. So maybe everyone was out drinking and not wanting to learn body facts ? lol If you're looking for something to do on the strip that's not drinking/clubbing/partying. I would def recommend checking this place out.

Perfect for families with kids! We are a little biased because we visited the original Meow Wolf in…read moreSanta Fe several times and for us you can't beat the original, but there's definitely some aspects here that we liked better. If you decide to get the card and do the immersive storyline, it's very likely that kids can understand and take the lead. It's not too simple so you can spend some time and get your money's worth but it's also not overly complicated that they won't want to do it. We did the story all the way to the end (kids: 11 and 5) and it took us about 3 hours. While we could go to the original MW in SF on our own without kids, I don't see us doing this one without them but maybe if you are visiting Las Vegas without kids and really wanted to experience MW, you might enjoy it for what it is. We are locals so we can save it for visits from younger family members. We saw plenty of adult-only groups inside having a great time. It's something different to do, just off the strip, and while it's a little pricey, I think it's worth the money for the time you can spend there. We do highly recommend it and the surrounding Area 15 is very cool, and a great addition to Las Vegas! It's been adding new stuff everytime we turn around so look to maybe combine your time at MW with another activity too or one of the restaurants.

People were saying that you could spend hours here so we allocated the time for it. We arrived 30 mins late to our reservation time but didn't have any issues getting in. The security at the front was kind of rude. I asked a simple question of whether there were bathrooms inside because I genuinely did not know as a first timer and wanted to prepare just in case there wasn't. He said something along the lines of "well i would hope there is..." in a condescending tone and other snarky remarks about our cup of water that another employee said it was OK to bring inside. That already set off a bad start. You enter into this supermarket with bizarre items and there are hidden passageways that leads you deeper inside. We didn't know there was a scavenger hunt that you had to pay for so we were confused when we saw many people watching videos and running around. Some of the rooms were cool to explore but it just wasn't our vibe. The tickets were expensive too so we felt like we wasted our time there. We were in and out within an hour.

What a cool way to spend some time doing something different…read more Initially we were gonna head to Museum of Illusions. Then, looking outta our window- I saw Paradox Museum! 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

Exceptional Customer Service - Thank You, Sheryl!…read more I wanted to share what has been one of the most wonderful customer service experiences I've ever had. During my visit to the Titanic Exhibition in Las Vegas, I purchased a beautiful pair of earrings from the gift shop. Unfortunately, after returning to my hotel, I discovered that one of the gems had fallen out. I contacted the gift shop and had the absolute pleasure of speaking with the manager, Sheryl. After explaining what had happened, she kindly offered to exchange the earrings. What happened next genuinely touched me. Sheryl went completely above and beyond by personally travelling all the way to my hotel to exchange them! Not only was this an incredibly thoughtful gesture, but I also had the pleasure of having a lovely conversation with her. She was warm, friendly, compassionate and genuinely one of the loveliest people I've met during my time in Las Vegas. It's so rare to encounter someone who takes such genuine pride in looking after customers. Sheryl didn't just resolve a problem; she turned a disappointing situation into a truly memorable and heartwarming experience. Sheryl, if you happen to read this, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You are an absolute credit to the Titanic Exhibition, and your kindness will stay with me long after I've returned home to England. I sincerely hope the management team recognises what an exceptional person they have representing their business. Thank you again, Sheryl. You're a beautiful soul!

I think the Titanic exhibit at the Luxor is completely slept on. There are a lot of museums in…read moreVegas, but I rarely hear this one getting a mention. If you have any interest in the Titanic disaster, it's for sure worth a visit. You get a "boarding pass" when you enter the museum with information of a passenger who was actually on the Titanic. At the end of the museum, you get to find out their fate. It was interesting to see the difference between first class and third class, and the artifacts are cool to see. There is a bit of interaction with the slab of ice where you can get a sense for how cold the water was, and a room where you can envision how it would have looked and felt on the boat during its voyage. The narrative that they tell as you venture from room to room feels purposeful and harrowing as you go from seeing the nice amenities to the collision with the iceberg and the aftermath.
