Travel Tips
- The Strip is much longer than it looks — wear comfortable shoes
- Eat at celebrity chef restaurants at lunch for better prices
- Free attractions: Bellagio fountains, Mirage volcano, Fremont Street Experience
- Stay hydrated — the desert air is extremely dry
- Downtown Fremont Street has a grittier, more authentic Vegas vibe
- Shows and buffets should be booked in advance for best availability
Getting There & Around
Walking the Strip covers most attractions but distances are deceptive — it's 4+ miles end to end. The Las Vegas Monorail runs behind the east side resorts. The Deuce bus runs the full Strip length. Rideshare and taxis are abundant. Renting a car is useful for Red Rock Canyon and the Hoover Dam.
