    CAT BUS
    by JOHNNY_ENGLISH

    Cat (Citizen Area Transit) Is The Public Transport System In Las Vegas And One Of The Best And Certainly The Cheapest Ways Of Getting Up And Down The Strip And To Fremont Street. There Are 49 Routes In Total But The Two That Cover The Strip And Down To Fremont Street Are The 301 And 302 Which Both Run 24 Hours A Day 7 Days A Week. Both Fares Are $2.00 ($5.00 For A One Day Pass) And You Must Have The Correct Change. Both Buses Cover All Of The Strip Hotels From As Far South As Mandalay Bay Right Up To The Stratosphere And Then On To Fremont Street And The Same On The Return Journey The 301 Leaves Approximately Every 8-10 Minutes And Makes More Stops Than The 302. The 302 Is The Express Route And Makes Less Stops And Leaves Approximately Every 12-15 Minutes. Not All Of The Bus Stops Have Shelters So Look Out For The Small Signs With The Number 301 And/Or 302 On Which Are Not Always That Easy To See. These Busses Are Quite Big But Can Get Very Crowded Specially At Times Where A Lot Of Locals Are Travelling To Or From Work.

    To Get From McCarran Airport To Your Hotel One Of The Best And Cheapest Ways Is To Take One Of The Many Airport Shuttles That Are Available Just Outside The Airport Entrance. There Is A Booth Located On The Street Where You Can Buy A One Way Ticket To The South or Center Strip For $5.00 And $7.00 If You Are Going North To The Stratosphere. To Go Downtown Its Around $8.00 If You Wish You Can Buy A Return Ticket For $9.00 (Strip) Or $12.00 (Downtown) Which Works Out A Little Cheaper And If You Do Then You Must Remember To Ask The Driver For A Telephone Number So You Can Call The Company Near The Time You Want To Return And Also Ask Him How Long Before You Want To Be Picked Up Should You Call Because Some Of Them Require 24 Hours Notice. There Are Always Buses Waiting Outside The Airport With Acl, Bell, Star,And Grayline A Few Of Them And Your Wait Should Not Be To Long Because Both Times I Took One We Left After A Short Time And Neither Bus Was Full Though I Have Heard A Few People Say They Did Not Leave Until Their Bus Was Full. These Shuttles Are Especially Good If Your Travelling Alone But If There Are More Than One Of You To Split The Cost Then You May Want To Take A Taxi Which Will Be A Little Quicker And Costs Approximately $8-$10 To The Strip And $17-$19 Downtown Less Tip. There Are Lots Of Shuttle Bus Stops So Be Sure To Stand At The Right One For Your Hotel, Because They Wont Take You If You Are At The Wrong One,And You Will Then Have To Go To The Right One And Wait All Over Again,Which Is Not Fun,But I Have Seen It Happen More Than Once. The Person Selling You The Ticket Will Tell You What Stop You Must Go To.

    We decided not to hire a car for our holiday as we researched the public transport available in las Vegas which is more efficient than driving. The main buses are CAT buses and no. 301 goes up and down the strip 24 hours a day approximately every 10 minutes. They also do buses out to the shopping malls on edge of city(likes Belz Factory Outlet). There is also a bus called the Strip Trolley but this is slower as it goes into each hotel and stops there before coming back out onto strip so is not the fastest service around. The price for the CAT 301 bus to get up and down the strip was $2 one way. Its great to just hop on, pay and then get off at another hotel further down strip. They were very efficient (and air condioned!) and we really found them a great help to our holiday and did not miss havin a car at all. Have a look at this link which gives you prices , routes, times etc... http://www.vegas.com/transportation/buses.html

    RIO-HARRAH'S SHUTTLE

    If You Are Staying On The Strip And Want To Visit The Rio Hotel There Is A Free Shuttle Bus That Leaves From Harrah's Approximately Every 20/25 Minutes Depending On The Traffic And This Service Runs From 10.00am Until 1.00am Daily. The Bus Holds 20 People And There Is No Standing. I Walked To The Rio From The Center Of The Strip In About 20 Minutes And Got The Bus Back A Couple Of Hours Later And Took A Photo Of It Just Before I Boarded Which You Can See To Your Left.

    If you are not renting a car, it is a good idea to get the 24 hour pass for the bus on your second day in Vegas. Why? Well, we didn't have a car and on the first day we walked so much that my feet were hurting really bad. We didn't get the bus pass until the 3rd day, but wish we would have done it sooner. The cost is 5 dollars per person and it's good for 24 hours from purchase. Remember, things are a lot further on the strip than they appear to be. I've learned the hard way :) But if you like to walk, it is a lot of fun!

    Its not really a trolley bus, just 'dressed' up to look like one. It runs up and down the strip and as walking can be a bit tiring on your feet hopping on this bus can give your feet a respite. It doesnt however go passed the Stratosphere at the northern end. If you want to go to Fremont Street Experience you will have to either get a taxi from here or one of the service buses. Price for the trolley bus is $1.75, exact money is required as no change is given. The trolley bus runs from 9.30am - 1.30am however it can be quite slow as it goes around all the casinos.

    Not knowing the City, I paid my Irish travel agent in advance to arrange transport from the sirport to the hotel. I need to double check the email correspondence, but I'm pretty sure I was well overcharged at the Irish end of things. We were staying at the luxurious Four Seasons, and I had requested a car, so I trusted the Agent to come up with something nice. My heart sank when I followed the directions and found myself at a coach pickup depot. I bit my tongue, pocketed any bit of snobbery, and decided to go along with it. At the ticket desk I asked the ticket girl if we would be dropped right to the hotel door and she said we would. We queued for about half an hour in the sun and eventually our shared bus arrived and picked up about fourteen passengers. We arrived at the huge Mandalay Bay complex and the driver shouted "Four Seasons." I could see no reference to Four Seasons anywhere, but our luggage was now in the valet parking area in front of Mandalay Bay and we had no option but to disembark. We spent fifteen minutes wandering the hotel ground before we eventually found the very clearly marked and very seperate entrance to Four Seasons. Not great for Grey Line who promised to drop us at the door, and worse for the Irish agent who had been asked for (and charged for) a car. The good side is that it costs just ten dollars for the round trip. The hotel provided a beautiful Lincoln town car for our return airport trip:-)

  • The Las Vegas Strip is a miserable place to drive, and a near-impossible place to park. Walking is far better, and enables one to work off some of the calories from the big, all-you-can-eat buffets. You also see more, and can always stop and do whatever strikes your fancy. If you're going too far to walk, use the bus. Bus 301 runs between Downtown Transportation Center (DTC) and South Strip, 24 hours. Buses leave every 10 -15 minutes. There are many stops. Bus 302, the Strip Express, runs between the DTC and the Southern Transfer Center, with fewer stops. Bus 301 cost $1.25 (exact change required). Bus 302 costs $2.00. Take the bus, and save yourself a lot of time and trouble.

    the "duce" bus runs from the south strip (mandalay bay hotel) to fremont street downtown. the duce stops at almost every casino hotel on the strip. as of january 2008 a single ticket fare is $2 and a 24 hour pass is $5. the duce is part of the CAT bus system and you can transfer to any other bus on the system. the main reason to take the duce is that it is the cheapest way to get from the strip to downtown. the only drawback is because of it's numerous stops it takes about 1/2 an hour to get from the mandalay bay to downtown and visa versa. your other option is a taxi but the fare from the south strip to downtown will be around $20 one way.

    Inexpensive and reliable transportation is provided by Citizens Area Transit, known locally as CAT. Buses run along the Strip 24 hours a day. The one-way fare is $1.25 and exact fare is required. THE DEUCE, a 24-hour double-decker bus, stops at almost every Casino on the Strip and the Las Vegas Convention Center during major conventions. The cost is $2.00 one-way or $5.00 for an all-day pass.
