Please DON'T Go to Fremont Street in Las Vegas...

What age allowed in the Fremont? We going this December but my teenagers wanna visit Fremont

[@MichaelMiller-fq9xg]

​@@mdfft7921You can walk around Fremont Street at any age. You can walk through the casinos. Anyone under 21 years of age can not stand near any gaming. Slots or table games. Check out the shark pool at the Golden Nugget

[@gregcrezee4071]

Thank you so much!! I go to Vegas every 7 to 9 weeks. Truth be told, I never even think of doing downtown. Now, after seeing the 2 of you staying there. Says alot! So thank you!

[@jenib4057]

We go to Vegas 2 or 3 times a year and always stay at the PLAZA. I’m not a gambler but my husband loves to play craps, the table minimum is reasonable and their table staff are always friendly and upbeat. The pool is great and the proximity to Fremont Street is awesome! We always have at least one meal at Oscars(the best steak!) and Hash House a go go, YUM!! Lastly, Vegas’ best sports book is right across the street at Circa with a huge screen showing every game imaginable! I will say though, that you’re likely to encounter some homeless beggars and a contact high just walking around. So parents beware, it’s not a place for children.

[@milt6208]

How do you put up with the old musty smell of that place?

[@jenib4057]

They are updating, so it’s getting better.

[@flaviapereira1349]

I've always been a fan of Fremont Street over the Strip. Glad you're back, Aly! I wonder if you've convinced Chris to do a Talls video with his voiceover. 😄

[@fryguy1133]

I miss the old fremont

[@David-u9r]

I remember Las Vegas when Levis were only 12 bucks a pair and they were quality made in America.

[@ModusOperandom]

Hugo’s Cellar in the basement of the Four Queens…best restaurant I’ve ever been to anywhere, not just Vegas. Incredible food and old-school experience.

[@e2thedj278]

I will be in Vegas for the Chiefs/ Raiders game this month! I was just there this past June! I love it there! I can't get enough. How much I've to Vegas, I haven't still haven't done enough there! I'm ready to go!

I've been a sub of a few VEGAS youtubers will large followers, but am JUST NOW DISCOVERING Aly's channel for the first time. GREAT VIDEO ! Thanks Aly for the info...in fact some of this (such as the Mike Hammer show) just might alter my upcoming VEGAS VACATION plans. I will be in VEGAS for 6 days in November 2024.

[@AmazingPhilippines1]

I lived in Vegas for decades so thanks for the walk down memory lane. Hanging out in the PHILIPPINES now. Great place to visit.

[@daviddaubert2187]

I would love to live in Cebu someday 🤓😎😁

[@RobertBadgerJr.]

I completely agree on ALL of your points Aly. Especially the Mike Hammer show at the 4 Queens - my friends and I saw his show this past May and it was easily one of the highlights of my trip. He is very skilled, incredibly funny and involves the audience in the act. I HIGHLY recommend seeing him. I will return for sure, probably not my upcoming trip in a few weeks - but definitely on another occasion.

[@wcollins4191]

I was Lucky I use to go to Vegas from 1984-2000 era when rooms were low, buffets & free drinks cigarettes. I stayed in the 80's era at the Horseshoe & Mint for $35 a night and the buffet @ the Horseshoe was $1.99 & circus circus $0.99 Breakfast Buffet.

[@MichaelMiller-fq9xg]

We used to cruise Fremont Street on Friday and Saturday nights back in the 70s when we were in high school. The East Fremont District back in the 50s and 60s is where the department stores and shopping were. I remember seeing Atomic Liquor when I was a kid and we would go shopping. Las Vegas was great back then

[@MichaelMiller-fq9xg]

I'm moving from Vegas to Costa Rica next month, and your travel tips are how I found your channel. Thank you for the travel information

[@StephStraub]

I moved to Vegas 6 months ago and my husband and I can’t wait to visit Fremont! Thanks for this tour

[@britt5126]

Great video! I'm planning my next trip to Vegas.

[@Hummingbirds2023]

Super duper vlog on downtown Aly!! Its where I would go if i was going back to Vegas. Well done!!🎉

[@jeffreyRfike]

Have always loved Fremont Street, been visiting Las Vegas over 30 years, but WOW! You've introduced me to at least 3 places I've got to visit now. Thanks for taking the time to find the hidden gems a lot of folks have missed, or not discovered yet!

[@plazahotelandcasino]

Thank you so much for stopping by and the feature ✨

[@PlanetKaosIRL]

As a Vegas creator, you are 100% spot on! Great video and extremely accurate. Well done Aly! 👏

[@ZippyThePinhead]

It's been eons since went to Vegas, now that I'm retiring I may venture that way. I didn't get to see old downtown Vegas the last time like I wanted to, but since watching your reaction video, I may plan to spend my time there. Thanks for the info. 🙏

[@WhodatnTx]

I love your review! I love downtown! And now ive gotta state the obvious...as I dont see where anyone else has.....You are absolutely GORGEOUS! Inside and out! I love your personality and Chris is one very lucky man! Carry on !

[@miken3992]

Agreed on all points! We are going back to Vegas next week for our honeymoon and staying on Freemont St.. The Strip is fun to walk around during the day and see all those casino resorts, but there is NO better place to people watch, enjoy great bands for free, and hang out and just have fun. Four Queens is awesome too, btw!

[@TheAyatollahofNofappollah]

Great video and I agree. I stayed at the GN Sunday through Wednesday and loved it. The best part is everything is right at your fingertips: Food, alcohol, gambling, awesome entertainment, ABC Store, etc. This year, I am doing the opposite: Nomad. Thanks 😊

[@dondtektor8537]

So glad I found your channel. First time coming to Vegas for the wife and I from Canada,,,So excited,,,Here we come Fremont st,,,

[@tatirboy]

Great video Aly love staying on Fremont or just off of it. So much information, thank you!

[@recoverybyrediscovery]

The mechanical horse betting game is my favorite betting machine. This had been around for at least 35 years if not more. I used to go Las Vegas as a package deal back in 1989-1991 when the Fremont Experience wasn't. The charter was at Howard Hughes Airport at the time as opposed to the current airport. I laughed so hard when I managed to hit the long shot of 400 to 1 every so often on one quarter. I could not bet on the next round because it was still dispensing quarters out of the machine! 🤣 It was hilarious to take my quarters and put it in the plastic containers and wait a few minutes lining up to the cashier cage knowing that I won more than I lost. I really didn't mind getting my hands dirty from the quarters. Great memories! To know that downtown Las Vegas still have the old fashioned coin operated gambling devices is making me want to go back there and have at it at the D Casino. Thank you for pointing this out as this made my day! 😁

[@physherwoman]

I agree with you, we always stay downtown! Main St Station is our home away from home (we go to Vegas at least 3 or 4 times a year, sometimes more, for many years now). They refurbished their rooms recently, Triple 7 Brewery is great for beer & food, and the buffet is good too. Awesome friendly staff, many of whom have become our friends. Their casino is smaller, not as many machines, but way less crowded and smoky which we like. We like going to Circa to eat & play, Andiamo at The D is awesome, also like Triple George and Hugo’s Cellar. Fremont St can get a little nuts at times but is always interesting! Love that they have really cleaned up the area down near El Cortez and the Container Park and Main St and Stewart as well. There are not nearly as many homeless people as there used to be. So it feels much safer to me. Of course you always have to be smart and aware of your surroundings no matter what. And it is definitely less expensive downtown than on the strip! You will never catch us on the strip unless we are going to a show or concert there, which we tend to avoid.

[@KevinShaughnessy-y4r]

@@physherwoman Tony Hsieh's estate was settled some time ago The Container Park property - Western Hotel Gold Spike & Downtown Grand are for sale There hasn't been an official announcement for development or reconstruction Eventually Paradise Road will have to run parallel with Las Vegas Blvd to connect with The Fremont District Let's hope that happens Derek Steven"s has bids on properties downtown

[@sallyomahony1108]

One of our best days was in Freemont. I sat at an ‘outdoor’ bar while my daughter rode the zip line then we just sat and people watched for a couple of hours.

[@birdman5223]

Great vibe y’all😎

[@vichyssoise80]

Me and my wife went twice. When we went in 2022, we absolutely loved it. My wife even won 127 bucks on her 2nd spin at Golden Nugget! I got stuck on the zipline and I thought it was fun! lol We went this year and I think the later it got, the less we enjoyed it (coupled with guards yelling at us not to go inside Golden Nugget, but we went in from the other side to use the restroom and then Lyft back to Mandalay Bay). It was a good time, but then again, it was day 6 of our Vegas trip lol I was getting burnt out.

[@alysmalls]

6 days is a lot lol!

[@lifer9883]

Every time I go to Vegas with the wife we stay in the strip for two weeks, we love it and we are seniors, greetings Scotland 😊 Ps we have been going to Vegas since 1998, our first hotel was the Stardust and it was Christmas.

[@FlyLikeDove]

I love Fremont! I usually stay on the strip and visit at least one night during my visits, but I stayed a Circa last time and LOVED it!

[@user-Devon1230]

Great video. Mike Hammer is truly a funny guy. I've seen him 7 times and always have a blast. Just wait until the Arts district is finished. That is going to be amazing.

[@voicesinkennyshead3691]

Fremont St = too crowded, too loud, cheap made merch, too hot, all I seen were sad looking people, I don’t know what happened, it was so much better 10 years ago

[@yesicanu]

Same folks as 10 years ago. The only difference is that it's expanded East and it's as safe as it's ever been.

[@drewgrows7765]

She makes ghetto sound appealing.

[@CAUSELESSREBEL]

I used to deal craps at the Plaza

[@raiderralf1]

When down on Freemont, make sure to hit up the bars on Fremont East, especially the Corduroy. They play the best rock music and IMO have the best drink in downtown with their famous habanero pickle back! Hogs and Heffer's is another bar close to the Mob Museum that's a must stop as well. Their bartenders are some of the craziest and most fun people you'll meet in Vegas.

[@billysnipesmarketing9565]

I Love The D. Upgrade to a high floor The views are incredible. Elmer the Desk clerk is a Customer Service Specialist!!!

[@andrewpettola6097]

Since the mid-2010s, Fremont Street has been the much better value for Vegas travelers. Plus, it's actually in the city of Las Vegas! I think the turn around began when Derek Stevens and his brother bought the Golden Gate and Fitzgeralds (The D). That forced al the other hotels, especially The Plaza, to up their games. It is such a great place to visit now. Don't forget the Art District, too! I would say Evel Pie and the Atomic Cafe are must-sees. It would be really cool if those few old motels on the far end of Fremont could find some investors and renovate into new spaces like Fergusons. Great video!

[@gasperm3]

I agree. Also, during F1 weekend on the strip the downtown area is offering a FREE huge neon music festival as a way to say FU to F1. So lets get the word out and hopefully everyone makes it out to support that great event!

[@2btribal]

Totally agree with this vid, been going there since 2009, we experienced in 2023 was your not getting value for your money, it use to be great during Easter weekend and March madness but it's gone crazy crowded too, still first timers should not be put off to visit this wonderful place because they will not know the difference from today's prices and the years gone by. Hope to visit again sometime in the future

[@davidkessinger1581]

First off, I agree that it is much better and more fun and less expensive to stay downtown. And second, your video makes me a little sad and longing for past days. My first trip to LV was in the late 70's. It was a 21st birthday present from my mother. She even paid for my best friend to travel with me. Our hotel was the Golden Nugget and we loved it. There was no Fremont Experience back then and we loved how you could even go diagonally at the walk lights. I know, small things, but being from a 200 person town, small things become bigger. And those neon signs you pointed out were on actual places back then. Glitter Gulch was an actual casino, not a strip club as it would become years later and then even a symbol of downtown. And Vegas Vic? I gambled many times in the Pioneer. And I still wake up sometimes with the jingle from Sassy Sally's in my head. It's Double double double double double double double double, double jackpot time! You could play 50 cent live blackjack at one of the casinos and $1 was everywhere. The Plaza was there, but called Union Plaza and it has not changed a lot over the years. My favorite memory of there was the .49 breakfast special (2 eggs, 2 bacon or sausage, hash browns, 2 pieces of toast and coffee). I was a growing boy, so I ordered 2 most days lol. I even lived in East Las Vegas in the mid 80's. I remember driving downtown and parking outside the door at the news shop at the Horseshoe. Sportsbooks were mostly stand alone places back then. Anyone else remember a cigar smoke filled joint just across a side street from Golden Nugget called LeRoy's? My friend was nervous as hell there, but I loved it. Yes, I still love staying downtown every trip, but memories abound from The Mint to Golden Goose to Lady Luck to Sundance to Gold Spike to Orbit Inn to Las Vegas Club. Ok, time to walk down to El Cortez and get lost in memories. Nice video, 😎

[@milt6208]

East Las Vegas? Boy you are brave.

[@lisabaron2582]

Try Pizza Rock and Eureka! next time you're downtown! We love everything about Fremont; need to start building our comps down there!

[@milt6208]

I lived in Las Vegas for over 50 years until I had to get out of there it got so bad. But Fremont Street is a freak show and flat out weird.

[@michaelanthony1797]

I agree, Vegas was good up to late 90's. When I travel to Vegas I go to SouthPoint Casino. Never really like downtow.

[@randyshipley1792]

I've got off the strip 18 years ago when it just started growing to much. Fremont has been my go to place ever since then.

[@wfjr997]

I have lived here for 30 years and worked at the California hotel on Fremont Street for 26 years,it has a large amount of Hawaiian guest and they are very friendly. Come visit the Cal next time ❤

[@u4tubular]

Downtown is fun. I think what a lot of folks don’t realize is that despite how it appears on the map, the strip takes a LOT of walking which is killer in the summer. I’ve been to Vegas dozens of times and can attest that the machines downtown pay more often than on the strip so you can last a little longer haha!

[@flyboy747uk]

7 nights each year for me staying at the Downtown Grand. Love it there

[@jshawley]

My wife and I moved to Vegas 6 months ago. We have been to the strip twice, and to Fremont street a countless number of times. We love it down there. Circa swim is the bomb, and people watching is second to none! ( We actually got married at the Neon Chapple at the far end of Fremont ) We really like the Triple George Grill. Now stop telling everyone about this place! 😀 It is so much better than the strip!

[@be7967]

Fremont is fun for a night, but I wouldn’t want to spend 3 days there

[@primemover1416]

I've been to both the strip and downtown. For better or worse, my type of people are downtown.

[@paland99]

I used to work at the Golden Gate Casino back in 1985. I don't even know if it exists anymore. The Mint was across the street but I know that is gone now. It was fun and cheap back then with 99 cent buffets. It has change immensely since then.

[@jessicasolis5208]

I LOVE Legacy bar ,the views are amazing and so are the drinks 🍸

[@angelinaramon]

I'll definitely check it out. Going to Las Vegas soon.

[@rob.The.Hug.Dealer]

great review Aly, i too really enjoy the vibes of Fremont Street. the outdoor bands are great, TMB, Garage Boys, Alter Ego and Spandex Nation I like the best :). I have stayed at many of the hotels down there with El Cortez being my most stayed at place. What I don't like and I find to be a complete bad joke is the 'resort fees' these places charge still. While the room is listed as 30.00 a night or less, the resort fee is usually more than that and where a place like the Plaza has the nice pool a place like El Cortez doesn't have anything other than a less than impressive weight room :/. Aside from the resort fee gouging, I really enjoy downtown on Fremont and it is the only place I stay in Vegas. great place to see entertainment and interesting people as well :).

[@clashon6163]

Carson Kitchen is a great little bar/restaurant, great drinks and gourmet food!

[@chipb1193]

I love Fremont St to hang out! I’ve always stayed on the Strip visit for years, but am making the decision to stay downtown. New subscriber 😊

[@James-ns7kc]

Thanks for sharing the great information about downtown Fremont Street. 👍 I really enjoyed your video but I must confess, after seeing the title, I came with intentions of disputing your comment to not come to Fremont Street. 😄 My favorite Hotel and casino is the El Cortez. I will actually be there at the end of this month. Thanks for sharing! 👍

[@tvd1188]

This is a good mini run down. I haven't stayed on the strip since 2010 (with one exception, work paid convention) because of all the reasons you mentioned. When i started going to vegas in 2004, anything off canopy was pretty scary. Even the walk down to the El Co was sketch. I used to take a taxi to Atomic Liquors and the Western hotel (LV's last sawdust joint!) just to avoid the blocks that are now great shopping/drinking spots. But, as great as things are now, i worry that prices are going to get to strip levels soon. Two places that hold a great place in my heart (but are shells of thier former selves) are the Downtown Grand (recently gutted gaming rules with new gaming managers) and the beautiful Main Street Station, which hasn't been the same since the pandemic.

[@Supremmo]

I stayed at Four Queens back in August. My room was literally behind the Fremont Experience Stage. It was hard to sleep at night but the noise died down after three. I will stay there again as the Four Queens doesn't have a resort fee.

[@MZ-ci3cy]

Fremont is the only place we stay now. We may go to the strip for a few hours one day, otherwise our time is spent on Fremont. It's been, this way for us for the last 10 years. Circa is definitely our hotel choice.

[@willisjefferson5886]

I really liked this video, I am coming back for next year Dead and Co and will spend part of it at the Golden Nugget

[@AverageJoesLibrary]

Some of our fav spots are there. Top bar Oak and Ivy in the container park, get a trust fall. Laundry room was an awesome experience and alway do the Mob. Still need to do arts district and Atomic.

[@alysmalls]

I will add those to the list, thanks!

[@ymcairedellbball]

The Plaza Hotel doubled as Biff's hotel in Back to the Future II. They just replaced the signage.

[@BonnieWhite-u8q]

We usually do 4 nights on the strip and 4 nights own town. Main street is our fav , a little quieter after 4 nights on the strip

[@Thunder_6278]

Amy. Fremont is the Vegas we remember and can afford. Got it.

[@Fat_Cat_747]

Your point about summer heat and less walking is arguable. The sheer heat given off by that roof is enormous, on top of the ambient heat from the day being hot. Also, does the air move around well enough ? Plus the body heat from the crowd. Unless maybe the lighting tech today is far cooler than from when I was there, heat from the displays is huge. Has it changed ?

[@Wimb702]

Love my hometown! Love the weather. Love the strip. Love Fremont. Love everything about it. ✨❤✨

[@milt6208]

I lived in Las Vegas for over 50 years and I heard the opening shots of 1 October from where I worked. I had to move away. It is not the place I grew up in anymore.

My best vacation ever was a stay on Fremont St Halloween weekend.

[@alysmalls]

I've heard Halloween on Fremont is wild! In a good way

[@anthonylagano]

The crowd on Freemont is a bit sketchy to me . I like the mob museum and of course it’s less expensive and lower table limits but I prefer the more upscale resorts on the strip . I only stay at Bellagio..Aria or Wynn . 😎😎😎

[@P-M-869]

Hoping to visit Fremont on my next visit. Thanks for the info.

[@belindabitzer6304]

Definitely agree. Downtown is my go to when I go for the weekend. Wayyy cheaper ❤

[@joycehuff9769]

It’s been awhile since I went to Fremont during my Vegas trips but last time I did go it took two and half hours to get back to Luxor hotel on bus. The vibe on Fremont was really really creepy. Lots and lots of druggies, freak show characters and people begging. Felt quite dangerous actually. Good to hear it’s getting better

[@roiijamez33]

Yes Fremont St has it's own vibe! Favorite hotel is Downtown Grand & have also had great stays at El Cortez & Plaza.

[@Nik-ll9yd]

I'd love to stay at the Circa. Are there trains or shuttles that run to the Strip though?

[@alysmalls]

Yes, there is a free shuttle called the Downtown Loop: www.lasvegasnevada.gov/Residents/Parking-Transportation/Downtown-Loop

[@raybrowning4286]

One and done didn't feel safe there at all. Way to many creepers.

[@mechadsey]

The Golden Nugget is my go to. I agree with you that the best place and the vibe that used to be the strip is now downtown

[@TheSoaphippo]

Are used to spend at least one day for every Vegas trip once or twice a year, however, I can’t go to Fremont Street anymore because I’m sick and tired of the nonstop harassment for timeshares, and beggars, it sucks now

[@clarkcalabrese5573]

Love Fremont Street, even if you can only visit for just one day. Binion's I would add to the list. Binion's Steakhouse on the 24th floor has great views of the Las Vega strip to the south. The steakhouse is old school and the food is very good. The porterhouse steak is large enough to share. Great for two!

[@chonshakeit]

I love freemont on the weekends with all the live music. Everyone is there to have fun and you can also find a few.youtubers there also. I prefer the d casino when I stay and circa and the grand hotel are great options

[@ErikFender1]

I visited Fremont St about 2 years ago. They pay 3:2 for blackjack on Fremont St. Casinos on The Strip only pay 6:5....less. I wish you had included the "Dancing GrandPa" in your video. He's a 78 year old man who dances on Fremont St. I hope he's still there!

[@Lisalisa-210]

We feel the opposite, we always visit Fremont but prefer the main strip especially at night. Staying brand loyal gives us the ability to get great prices .

[@tims4694]

I've got to spend more time down there. I usually only for a day or two, and spend 2-3 hours. I need all day to get off of Fremont and explore.

[@JerryThomas-fg9ms]

Fremont is one of those places where you either love it or hate it.

[@alysmalls]

💯

[@Moochie2012]

Newsflash! It's already too crowded and too expensive although still much better than the strip. I've been staying down there 95% of my visits over the last 40 years (before it was the trendy thing to do) and I'm here to tell you, it was at its peak in the late 90's through 2010ish. Now it's a complete zoo most of the time. The gambling odds have gotten way worse and now match those of the strip. I still go 2 to 3 times a year and unless we are with first timers, we stay downtown because of the excellent free live music, the potent but relatively low-priced drinks and the party atmosphere BUT make no mistake, the word has been out for a while.

[@drewgrows7765]

It's super ghetto on the street. There was a stabbing this summer. A lot of local hoodlums mixing with tourists.

[@mickyinireland4337]

We visit Vegas from Ireland roughly every 18 months & have stayed last twice on Fremont st 8nts in Plaza last time & 8 nts in Four queens the time before but i like to bet the horse racing & last time in Plaza even though they advertise a sportsbook they don`t take horse bets or show the racing so qlthough a decent hotel i won`t be back in it. The Four Queens is directly opposite the Fremont hotel & it was handy for the horse racing. Also fremont st gets very busy at night so no place for kids but having a drink is a lot cheaper downtown Some good offers & you can sit & people watch if you want. But plenty of places to eat & drink.

Fremont street is fun but the Art’s District is getting to be fun too.

I concur with all of this. I refuse to visit center strip any more - it's nothing more than a tourist trap and the prices of everything are completely out of control. It's either downtown (Circa is the preferred hotel to stay at but I love places like El Cortez and the Plaza too) or on the other end of town - South Point.

Stayed on the strip multiple times and of course it’s good and all but once I stayed on Fremont for the first time I’ve yet to ever go back to the strip

I learned long ago to stay off the strip. More fun and energy downtown.

I'll take Fremont any day over the strip. I always stay downtown. Coming back in February

I go to the WSOP every year but this year I did notice how expensive to strip was. $38 for a dry chicken Caesar salad from Guy Fieri through the Caesar's app why they charge $3 dollars for picking it up myself at the restaurant? I took my brother to Gordon Ramsey's steakhouse and used my $100 celebration coupon from Diamond status but it wasn't even enough for tips. The bill came up to $650! Burger shake and fries at Bobby Flay's was $34 dollars. Can we just get rid of the celebrity chefs. I don't like to walk outside in the blistering heat and usually stay at Paris where the tournaments are at.

On my next trip to Vegas I will definitely stay downtown. I'm kinda tired of the Strip. Mainly because I like table games and the minimums on the Strip are too high.

I loved it so much better before the canopy... all the neon did it for me and you did not need a canopy
