Are there guided tours of the Titanic Exhibition - is it worth it?
At the moment there are no guided tours of the Titanic Exhibition in Las Vegas and, as a personal opinion, I don't think they are necessary either.
As you will notice on your visit, the tour experience is very well organised. Each object, model or representation is accompanied with the necessary information so that you can fully understand the Titanic story.
However, for users looking for a fully immersive experience, the Titanic Exhibit organisers provide an additional audio guide for a cost of only €5. You can ask for information from the person in charge of validating your access once you arrive at the exhibition.
How to get tickets for the Titanic Exhibition at the box office
Getting tickets for the Titanic Exhibition at the ticket office is very simple as this point of sale is located close to the main entrance gate. Unless you are visiting the city during peak tourist months, the queues are generally not very long, although you will almost always have to wait a little while.
If you are in town for a short trip, 3 days or so in Las Vegas, I recommend that you don't waste a second and buy your tickets in advance. Besides saving you the queue, tickets on the website cost about the same as buying them at the box office.
Are tickets to the Titanic Exhibition included in any of the city's tourist passes?
Yes, one of the most comprehensive passes in the city is The Vegas Sightseeing Pass which includes up to 80 attractions in the city, including the Titanic Exhibition at the Luxor Hotel.
The price of the Sightseeing Pass ranges from €100 for a standard 2-day Vegas pass to €230 for a 5-day Vegas pass. Children under the age of 12 can purchase passes at a reduced price.
Like so many other offers in the city, this product is really interesting and allows the traveller to save money by exploring the city.
However, to really take advantage of the facilities offered by this type of product it is necessary to structure every aspect of the itinerary in detail and try to visit between 2 or 3 attractions each day. Otherwise, the money spent will not pay off.
How to get to the Titanic Exhibition in Las Vegas
The room where the Titanic Exhibit is presented in Las Vegas is located on the Atrium floor of the Luxor Hotel, one of the largest and most luxurious hotels in the city. It's a good idea to have a mapof the hotel and its layout handy to help you find your way around.
Now, if you are outside the area known as Las Vegas Boulevard, you should know that you have different transportation options to get to the Luxor Hotel. Here are my favourites.
Sightseeing bus
The best way to get to know the city when you visit it for the first time is aboard the Las Vegas sightseeing bus. It has different routes that take visitors through the most iconic sights and monuments.
To get to the Titanic exhibit at the Luxor Hotel and Casino using this mode of transport, take the red line and get off at stop 8, named "Excalibur Hotel".
Consider also purchasing the night bus pass to admire the wonderful lights of Las Vegas Boulevard at night - a breathtaking spectacle!
Public transport in the city
The public bus service in the city of Las Vegas is excellent , inexpensive and very punctual. If you need to travel long distances, such as to the Fremont area, don't hesitate for a second!
To get to the Luxor Hotel on the Las Vegas Strip, the following bus routes are available.
- Routes: Bus 119; Bus 201 and Bus CX.
- Stops: The "Nb Las Vegas at Mgm/Showcase Mall" stop is a 6-minute walk away; the "Sb Las Vegas at Luxor" stop is an 8-minute walk away and the "Wb Tropicana" stop is a 10-minute walk away.
Take a taxi in Las Vegas.
Another transport alternative that works very well in the city is the taxi service. Organised, friendly and extremely helpful, you can always ask the driver for recommendations.
However, there's no denying that taxis in this city are expensive, so if you're on a budget consider exploring other alternatives.
Is it advisable to go to the Titanic Exhibition in Las Vegas with children?
On whether to attend the Titanic Exhibition with children, the answer is: it depends. While it is true that the exhibition is awe-inspiring and interesting, it is also true that younger children may not understand the scope and relevance of this historical event.
Also, all the texts are in English and if your child is very young or does not know the language, it is very possible that he/she will not really understand what he/she is seeing and will get bored.
If you are going to Las Vegas with children, it might be more convenient to go to other museums, such as the Natural History Museum, as it is usually more interesting for them.
On the other side of the coin, take into consideration if your children like museums and it is a family activity that you do together often. In this case they shouldn't miss out!
There are interactive parts of the exhibition that children will certainly enjoy, as well as impressive models of the Titanic. Just remember that all descriptions are in English.
Top things not to miss at the Titanic Exhibit in Las Vegas
When visiting the Titanic Exhibit in Las Vegas you should be prepared not only for a collection of artifacts, but for a first class interactive experience.
The attraction is truly comprehensive and, as much as I love James Cameron's film adaptation, the information you get during the tour doesn't compare in the slightest.
Full-scale recreation of the sleeping quarters.
The creators of the Titanic experience recreated the ship's sleeping quarters down to the smallest detail, from the spacious first class passenger quarters to the third class passenger quarters, where one sleeping room could accommodate 4 crew members.
Cabin simulation
Inside a cabin recreates what the 2223 crew members experienced that fateful night, with precise air temperature. There is also a giant piece of iceberg that gives you a very close idea of the agonising cold that the victims of the tragedy suffered that night.
The Big Piece
A gigantic piece of the deck of the Titanic is on display here and is one of the favourite parts of most visitors.
The reason is simple: no matter how and how many times you have imagined the ship in your mind, it is much more impressive live.
Closing of the exhibition.
When you arrive at the exhibition you are given a boarding pass with the name and details of a real passenger who was on the ship that night. At the end of the tour you will come across a mural that gives accurate information about the fate of each of the crew members. Did your crew member survive or die that night on the Atlantic?
Whatever the answer, crying is allowed!
How much time do you need to visit the Titanic Exhibition in Las Vegas?
It is an extremely interesting exhibition, with many eye-catching objects to see and admire. I recommend my friends to set aside about two hours to take a good look at each of the parts and get fully involved in the experience.
Another excellent time-saving alternative is to combine your visit to the Titanic Exhibition with the Bodies Exhibition, an impressive exhibition about the human body and the impressive systems that make it up.
Real dissected and perfectly preserved bodies will teach you everything you need to know about anatomy and health. This exhibition is located in the same hotel as the Titanic Exhibition, so you can see both in one visit.
Whatever the answer, crying is allowed!
Titanic Exhibit opening hours in Las Vegas
The Titanic Exhibition is among the best museums in Las Vegas. It is open to the public from 11am and can be visited every day of the year, including weekends and national holidays.
However, the closing hours of the exhibition vary throughout the months. I recommend that my travelling friends check this information the week before their trip for greater certainty.
During the summer months in Las Vegas, the exhibit is generally open to the public until 8pm, with the last entry allowed at 7pm.
However, during the autumn months, specifically from September to November, the opening hours are reduced to 6pm (last entry allowed at 5pm).
For the winter months the regular opening hours return to 8pm, with last entry at 7pm.
Tips for visiting the Titanic Exhibit in Las Vegas
Hoping you enjoy your visit to the Exhibit to the fullest, here are a few tips that I hope you will find useful.
Make the most of your visit to the Luxor
If you haven't heard by now, The Luxor Hotel and Casino is one of the most luxurious and impressive facilities on Las Vegas Boulevard: an impressive building in the shape of an Egyptian pyramid with its own Sphinx on the main façade.
Take advantage of your visit to the exhibition to tour the Luxor's social areas, including its luxurious casino, food court and central courtyards.
Pay attention to closing times
The last access to the exhibition is one hour before the established closing time for the season, but my recommendation is to allow an average of 2 hours to enjoy all parts of the museum.
It is very important to pay attention to the closing time each day and arrive in plenty of time, especially if you are in a remote area of the city.
Respect the rules
There are basic rules to follow in this exhibition which are not unlike other museums you may have visited before. These include the prohibition of smoking inside the room and that it is forbidden to bring large bags, suitcases or backpacks.
Finally, photography is permitted, but videotaping the exhibition usually requires a special permit. Photographs must be taken without flash in order to protect the integrity of the pieces and not to disturb other participants.
