Editorial Review for Star Trek: The Experience – by James P. Reza
In Short
Even visitors only peripherally familiar with the sci-fi phenomenon will assimilate themselves into this fun environment. While other Vegas attractions promise elaborate theme-park surroundings, only this offers the depth of detail and veil of fantasy park-goers have come to expect. The museum is especially popular with true Trekkie fans, with more than 200 items making it the largest permanent collection of costumes and props in the world.

I come here every time that I am in Vegas. My dad is a Trekkie and I am a casual Star Trek fan, but there is something here for everybody. I would not suggest bringing a small child to the Borg Invasion, since it is a little more intense than the Klingon Encounter portion. Also, the Backstage Tour is very fun, but you're not allowed to share details with friends, so if you're a big mouth by nature and feel the need to splurge secrets, don't even think about it! The gift store is awesome, too, as you can go home with your own pet Tribble or bottle of Romulan Ale. IMPORTANT NOTE: They want to shut down the Star Trek Experience because of decreased rider-ship! They were going to keep it open until the new Star Trek movie comes out, but they pushed it back until next May. If you are a real Star Trek fan or love the Star Trek Experience in Las Vegas, PROTEST THIS COURSE OF ACTION!
Pros: Terrific all around!
Cons: Tickets can be pricey, but just go to discount ticket stands throughout the city to get cheaper tickets.

I'm not a Trekkie, Trekker, or much of a Star Trek fan, but I loved this! They really did this up right. There are two ride film experiences, one is Borg for the NG fans and one is Klingon for the old schoolers. Both were a blast. They also have "Quark's Bar" set up as a great themed bar/restaurant. The food was pretty good and the drinks were way cool. They also had several characters in costume walking around for photo opportunities. I had lots of fun! My Trekker friends had an absolute blast!
Pros: ride experiences, Quark's Bar, ambience
