Embark on the Reno Audio Tour: Chrome Legends and Riverfront Icons of Downtown

Beneath Reno's neon lights and shimmering casino fronts lies a web of secrets that shaped the city’s rebellious spirit.

This self-guided audio tour leads down bustling streets and quiet corners, revealing stories and places most wanderers never find.

Why did a thunderous standoff erupt on Arlington Avenue in the dead of winter? What cryptic symbol is hidden in the stained glass of Saint Thomas Aquinas Cathedral? Which faded room in the Riverside Hotel once saw a scandal whispered across all of Nevada?

Trace the footsteps of gamblers, dreamers, outcasts, and schemers as each stop pulls you deeper into intrigue. Wind along the river’s edge, beneath modern towers, and into the echoes of spiritual refuge. Watch the ordinary shift and reshape as Reno’s untold past comes alive.

Unlock the doors to the city’s enigmas—start the tour now and discover the shadows beneath Reno’s glow.
