Experience

Begin at Downtown Container Park, now home to a modern mix of shopping and entertainment, before delving into Las Vegas' seedy past at the Mob Museum for a peek into the criminal history that built Sin City. Then take a robotaxi to the Arts District and snap a few photos at Graffiti Alley. Next, discover the Burlesque Hall of Fame, a thoughtful celebration of the history of American burlesque. You’ll walk away with a newfound appreciation for the showgirls you’ll see on the Strip. End your tour with a refreshing craft beer and bar snacks at CraftHaus Brewery.

What is Uptaste? We’re something like a travel agency business (although we don’t sell flights or hotels). Instead, we specialise in finding the right place to eat, wherever and whenever you are, using location intelligence combined with expert and community curation. Uptaste destinations will rarely be restaurants; they’ll be shops, they’ll be street traders, they’ll be local markets, or some other easy-to-miss but hard-to-forget place.
