CSI: The Experience offers an activity for children in their mid- to late teens. There are three different crime scenes for guests to explore. Each scene involves collecting evidence and exploring it in labs using equipment similar to what is used on the television show. After using the equipment to solve the case, guests enter answers on a multiple choice quiz in a recreation of Gil Grissom's office to find out if their findings were correct. Gil Grissom, played by William Petersen, was the head of the Las Vegas CSI Unit on CSI until he left the show in 2009. The other investigators reported their findings to Grissom and relied on him for assistance in solving cases.rnrnTickets for CSI: The Experience cost $30 for guests 12 years or older and $23 for children ages four to 11 as of 2010.
