Pawn Stars VIP Tour

The Pawn Stars VIP Tour is a guided, four-and-a-half-hour bus trip through the real Las Vegas locations behind a run of History Channel reality shows. It's run by Annie Bananie Sightseeing Tours, a long-running local operator, with pickup at Treasure Island at noon, and it loops downtown and off-Strip to the actual filming sites - anchored by the World Famous Gold & Silver Pawn Shop of Pawn Stars.

The loop opens with a photo stop at Allegiant Stadium, then runs to the Shelby American factory and its free Heritage Center, where around 30 Cobras, GT350s and other Carroll Shelby machines sit on the showroom floor. After that come Danny "The Count" Koker's Count's Kustoms garage from Counting Cars, the pawn shop itself with Rick Harrison's adjacent Pawn Plaza (Rollin Smoke BBQ and Chumlee's Candy on the Blvd), and finally Neonopolis for Johnny Jimenez's Toy Shack and Ultimate Sports Cards & Memorabilia. You ride between them by air-conditioned mini-coach with a guide handling the logistics.

Set expectations correctly: this is the locations tour, not a cast meet-and-greet. You'll stand in the real shops and see the cars, but the stars film on their own schedule and actually meeting them isn't part of the standard bus ticket - Annie Bananie sells a separate walk-up Meet & Greet at the pawn shop on Tuesdays and Wednesdays for that. Counting Cars stopped making new episodes back in 2021, individual stops can change with venue hours or filming, and there's a fair amount of driving with no meal included. For fans of the shows, though, the guided loop links six scattered sites you'd struggle to reach on your own, and the pawn shop and Shelby's Heritage Center are genuine, free-to-enter landmarks.
