What to do on Fremont Street?
Let’s begin with, Downtown Las Vegas is the original Las Vegas. Fremont Street is the street you want to walk down. Not to mention Fremont Street is a must-see destination while you’re in Las Vegas.
So here is our recommendation of what to do on Fremont Street.
Fremont Street Experience Zipline
Starting at the east side of the Fremont Street Experience, the Slotzilla zip line is 77 feet high and 850 feet long. A Zip Line that’s 114 feet high and launches riders in a horizontal position, as if they are Superman, flying 1,700 feet — the entire length of the Fremont Street canopy – at speeds more than 35 miles per hour.
$25 for the lower zip line rides. Rides on the upper zoom line are $45. Save $5 on either line by flying before 6:00 p.m. All the best as you take the flight to the best attraction on Fremont Street.
Take a Segway Tour Las Vegas
You must be age 12 and up, more than 60 lbs (27.2 kg) and less than 350 lbs (158.8 kg) to ride. If you are 16 years of age or younger, you must be accompanied by a parent or adult who is more than 25 years of age. Pregnant guests and those with mobility or motor control issues are not allowed to ride. You must sign a liability waiver to ride. Flat shoes are recommended.
In addition to a Segway’s cool factor, it also saves tons of energy. You won’t tire out from too much walking, and you won’t waste gas by driving.
Before you get rolling, you receive about 15 to 20 minutes of training. Once on the road, an entertaining and knowledgeable tour guide provides narration, historical facts and little-known info along the way.
- There are three Segway Las Vegas downtown tours to choose from:
- South Fremont Street Tour (2 hours)
- Includes the Gold and Silver Pawn Shop, Charleston Art District, Rick’s Restorations and Downtown Container Park.
- North Fremont Street Tour (2 hours)
- Includes the Mob Museum, Neon Museum, Natural History Museum and the Old Las Vegas Mormon Fort.
- Fremont Experience Tour (45 to 60 minutes)

No matter which tour you choose, you’re likely to see parts of Las Vegas you didn’t even know existed, from the old casinos to the new revitalization of downtown.
