Beautiful and educational - We love Springs Preserve I love the educational value the Preserve is. Not only do you get exposed to native plants and wildlife, but education on how the Vegas Valley water system. Sustainability, reclamation and how it all started. Phenomenal programs and exhibits.

Great Unknown Gem in the Middle of Vegas - This place was great! There are so many things to see. It is like several museums in one place, natural history, vegas history, and a small "zoo" are included. We were there for probably 2+ hours and still didn't see everything. I only live a couple of hours from Vegas, and have been there no less than 200 times, and I had no idea this place even existed. We will be going back for sure!

Pleasant 3 Hours Diversion - Well worth the price of admission. From the native species on display to the "train" ride and museum displays, the 3 hours spent there could easily have been 6.

Fun and affordable! - There was a lot to see and would be perfect for a family. The indoors activities were nice in the Las Vegas heat and I enjoyed the short train ride which would be fun for kids. A nice place to visit and at a great price!

Spring Preserve and Nevada museum visit - We had a great time at the Spring Preserves here in Las Vegas on a sunny Sunday afternoon ! We saw the Del Solar house , walked through several nature trails overlooking the Cactus trees and vast array of pretty garden life ! The butterfly section was cute too ! We enjoyed learning about the history of Boomtown of Las Vegas life in the 1800’s after taking a fun train ride and indoors walking through the Nevada State Museum . As fairly new Nevada state Residents , we also appreciated the $9.95 a piece ticket price !

Family Fun - It was a great family activity. We walked the dinosaur exhibit and the Nevada State museum. We also did a conservation with kids class and enjoyed making our own river. It was a great day and fun for the whole family.

No, such thing as skip the line - The ticket said skip the line, but that is not true and it was not at all the case. They still made me go in the main ticket line and had never heard of the fact that Viator had a skip the line option because they don’t offer that. The experience itself was great, but I was misled by Viator With Skip the line.
