Cruise through Las Vegas in a GPS-guided GoCar, then step inside The Mob Museum for a deeper look at organized crime history.

The Mob Museum is the centerpiece of this experience. After parking your GoCar (museum parking is available for $8), you will spend approximately one hour exploring this world-class institution housed in a restored 1933 federal courthouse and United States Post Office. The building itself is part of mob history: in the early 1950s, it hosted one of fourteen Kefauver Committee hearings that exposed organized crime across the country. Inside, three floors of exhibits trace the story of organized crime in America through hundreds of authentic artifacts. On the third floor, you will see the actual brick wall from the 1929 St. Valentine's Day Massacre in Chicago, complete with bullet holes. The second floor features the restored courtroom where the Kefauver hearings took place, along with exhibits on casino skimming and the mob's grip on Las Vegas. The first floor covers modern organized crime and includes interactive displays such as a firearm training simulator and a forensic crime lab. The Mob Museum connects the stories you heard on the GoCar ride to real evidence, real courtrooms, and real consequences, creating a narrative that follows you from the street into the galleries.

723 South Casino Center Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89101
The Mob Museum sits just two blocks north of Fremont Street in a restored 1933 federal courthouse that once hosted real hearings on organized crime, and it is the destination that elevates this GoCar tour from a fun ride into a genuinely immersive history experience. While the GPS-guided drive takes you past the casinos, neon signs, and street corners where mob deals were made, The Mob Museum is where those stories come into sharp focus through authentic artifacts, courtroom footage, and exhibits you can touch, hear, and interact with.
Inside The Mob Museum, the third floor opens with the actual bullet-scarred brick wall from the 1929 St. Valentine's Day Massacre. One floor below, you can stand in the very courtroom where the Kefauver Committee grilled witnesses about organized crime's reach across America in the early 1950s. The first floor brings the story into the present day with exhibits on drug cartels, cybercrime, and law enforcement tactics, along with a firearm training simulator that puts you in the shoes of a federal agent making split-second decisions. After exploring the galleries, the basement houses The Underground, a Prohibition-era speakeasy and working distillery where The Mob Museum produces its own moonshine.
This tour is a strong fit for history buffs, true crime fans, and couples looking for something more engaging than a standard sightseeing ride through Las Vegas. The combination of driving past real mob landmarks and then walking through The Mob Museum's galleries creates a layered experience where the city itself becomes part of the exhibit. For anyone who wants to understand the forces that built Las Vegas before the corporations arrived, the pairing of an open-air GoCar ride with a visit to The Mob Museum delivers a side of the city most visitors never see.
This is hands-down one of Vegas's most entertaining ways to explore the city and Red Rock Canyon. The GPS-guided FUVs (fun utility vehicles) are easy to operate after a quick training video, though be prepared to really muscle those handlebars during tight turns since there's no power steering. Staff members consistently get praise for being helpful and funny during check-in, making the whole experience feel relaxed and welcoming from the start. The heated seats and grip warmers are a nice touch for cooler weather rides. The Strip tour takes about an hour and hits all the major sights with entertaining audio commentary, while the Red Rock Canyon option gives you around four hours total. Just know that the Red Rock trip involves roughly 85 minutes of street driving each way, leaving about two hours for the canyon itself, so it's more about the journey than deep exploration. Multiple families mention this being worth every dollar, especially since you can go at your own pace and even make practical stops along the way. First-timers, including those with zero motorbike experience, report feeling comfortable and safe on the road. Bring your driver's license and expect to find street parking near the office.
