A visit to the neon bone yard is an opportunity to get access to a Las Vegas rarity - physical history. In a city where everything new is held sacred, and anything old is disposed of, the neon bone yard is the equivilent of the Louvre. Wander around and marvel at the art of neon -and appreciate the size and scale of these masterpieces. An ecclectic mix of the giant silver slipper and Denny's restaurant signs nestle together in the Nevada desert sand.
Tours are private and by appointment only. Its a charitable organisation running the bone yard. Costs are: For 10 people or more its $5 each.
For 10 people and less its a minmum fee of $50 for the group.
Further information and online booking is available at www.neonmuseum.org
A fantastic little museum with a wealth of Elvis related memorabilia, a decent tribute singer, great gift shop and maybe the chance to meet and chat to some of his former friends and acquaintances!
Sadly this gem is a bit run down and undersold in big-casino-fixated Vegas and lies in a tatty building off the strip, easiest accessed from behind Fashion show mall, but it is unmissable, great value and worth the effort for all King fans.
