    I can't believe I actually paid money, and wasted my time to see this place.

    If you REALLY don't have anything better to do with your time...which I doubt, don't waste your time at this place.

  • Circus Circus is getting very faded - went up there to take a peek, and it looked very old - even the acts I saw were dull.

  • i felt the $40 for $20 deal at the trop was a bit chintzy when i played my tokens out, the gift items selection was very poor. i got a polo shirt, but the only color that was in my size was an awful pastel lime green. otherwise i love the trop.

    The Star Trek Experience at the Las Vegas Hilton is a big rip-off of die-hard Trekkers. Advertised repeatedly as $19.95 to enter as many times you want on the day you buy your ticket, we arrived to find the price bumped to $29.95! YIKES! The ride was nifty, as was the Klingon in character, and the themed shops. But the bar staff had NO customer service skills. Restaurant smelled funny instead of yummie. Totally not worth what they charged to get in, but once you'd taken the cab off the strip, you might as well... The main hotel casino was nice. Won $100 on the dollar slots!

    Siegfried & Roy's show in 1999 was quite boring. The tigers are beautiful, but they're not on the stage long enough. S & R looked old & tired. But in 2002 we went back to visit their 'Secret Garden'. The dolphins don't do tricks, but they're still nifty to watch.

    In theory the Excalibur sounds like it has a cool theme for a casino. You know the Knights of the Round Table, King Arthur, etc... Yet, it was without a doubt the sorriest casino I visited with in Vegas! The inside is kind of dumpy with corny decorations. Also, most of the clientele seemed to be senior citizens pushing around their oxygen tanks, LOL! :-P

  • Be sure to miss the lion habitat, even though it's free it's not worth the price of your time in line.

  • Downtown Las Vegas is a dive. Yes, the Fremont Street Experience is prettty cool, but you have to go downtown to see it. Parking has to be validated, so it's not really free if you don't bring your ticket with you. Overall downtown Las Vegas is a waste of time.

  • Has anyone seen those video tapes for sale for around $10, about Las Vegas? I bought two different ones so I'd be able to relive my trip, or get my blood flowing when I'm about to leave for there. They are: 'Visit Fabulous Las Vegas' and 'Las Vegas Yesterday & Today'. BE AWARE!!! They are real cheap productions. Very amerturish. All though there are some good memories on there; it's just that the shots weren't professionaly done (or what I expected)..

  • Do not go to the cheapy cheapy buffets. Remember, you get what you pay for! One free show which I think is pretty lame: the pirate show in Treasure Island. The show can get pretty crowded and the sidewalks packed, you can't move or breathe. All the waiting and suffocating really isn't worth it. And with the crowds, it's hard to see the show. Of course, that's just my own opinion. But for free outdoor shows, I think the Bellagio water fountains show is much better.
