  • Free attractions are always the best!
    By scarlet hawkmoon, 03/25/08
    You only see a couple of lions sleeping and playing around, but when you see them for free and take lots of pictures of them, up-close, you know its one of the best experiences you can enjoy at Vegas. I was looking for some friends over the casino and could not help to stop and look at these beautiful creatures. The trainers were playing with them ...

  • Just Okay
    By Karen, 03/20/08
    I liked seeing the lions, but there were tons of people crowding the glass. The exhibit seemed really small. The trainers were playing with them when I visited.

  • The Lions aren't shy!!!!
    By Peter, 03/08/08
    When we walked by on 3/5...the two lions were getting it on!!! Besides that, it's was fun watching them play ball and "test" the water, etc.

    A great 10-15 minute stare at the lions and it's a FREE to do thing in Vegas!

  • breath taking
    By World Traveler, 02/23/08
    We had some trouble finding it since it was in the middle of a huge casino but it was absolutely breathtaking once we found it. I loved how the lions played with this ball just like a cat would. we were also lucky enough to come back and the lions were sleeping over the walkway and we walked under them. I loved the very well priced lion gift shop ...

  • A little sad
    By Katherine, 02/14/08
    It is 2 lions that sleep all day, (they are nocturnal), and occasional trainers that go in and try to make them play. The good thing is that the lions are not kept in there all the time, they are actually brought in from a ranch nearby, not that I think lions should be in a glass cage in a Las Vegas casino......

  • Lots of great photos
    By MaryAnn, 01/25/08
    I have a lot of really great photos of the lions at play with the trainers. This was a very unique experience and I made several visits during my stay. They had someone talking about the lions and explaining about the program and training. I really enjoyed it a lot.

  • I love those lions
    By Liming, 12/24/07
    It feels so different when you can see lions through 1" glasses. Their paws look so big, and their roars sound so clear. From my point of view, it's more attractive than the secret garden, and best of all, it's free.

  • It's missing something
    By raquel, 12/12/07
    I was expecting a little bit more. There was a tunnel you walked into to watch a movie about the lions- I've got Animal Planet on cable for that. It is a free exhibit but would have liked to see a staff member there for q&a's.
    I think the best time to visit is meal time since these animals sleep most of the time.
