For $2 - $20 you can get a 2 hour to a 3 day pass on the busses. These will take you from the strip to the outlet mall in the north and the south. They are great for getting around. The main problem is the bus stops are really spread out.

Make sure to buy a two day pass

The train

The fares for the train in Las Vegas are expensive to me, so as a suggestion, it is better to buy a two day pass. Per trip cost $5.00 so that's $10 per trip back and forth to your hotel but if you have a two day pass, you are better off.

Catch the train at the MGM casino and it stops close to the Venetian Hotel.

Catching a cab is way cheaper especially if you are lazy to walk. There is so much walking involved in taking a train. You have to looped around the casinos - that's their plan so you are distracted and will gamble...By the time you get to your destination, two hours have easily passed!

Cheapest way from airport to hotel: Shuttle Bus

3.5 out of 5 starsHelpfulness

mingomatic 72 reviews

Once you get off the plane, find your way down to where the baggage claim is. Right next to baggage claim 7 or 8, exit the doors next to it, and find the shuttle booth. Its about $7 from airport to hotel. That's about $10 cheaper than a cab. Sometimes, the line is shorter too. There's no good reason why you wouldn't do this instead!

The Deuce

Muzzaa 26 reviews

A bus that goes up and down the strip from Mandalay Bay all the way to Fremont. It costs $2.00 per trip, or $5.00 for 24 hours of unlimited riding. It stops at every major resort hotel on the strip. The only drawback is the gridlock in front of the MGM. It is a double decker bus, so you get a good view of the street if you are on top.

the deuce is a double decker bus the cost is 2 for the strip and 1.50 off the strip.
If you want to go from one part of the strip to the other part then look for the sign on the bus that either says south strip or north strip. The drivers are very helpful and patient. During 5pm till 7pm more buses are placed on the road but they can still packup pretty quickly.

If you are staying at a midstrip hotel there really is little need for buying passes. However if you wish to go to the southernmost part of the strip or to the outlets than you may want to look into it.

Ride the Deuce Bus!

The Deuce

For $5 you can buy an all day pass, and hop on and off the bus from the south strip to Downtown and back. When I visited Vegas 5 years ago, the city buses were cheap, but dirty and we saw people literally living on the bus. Not now - these are new, clean and really a great value.

Go upstairs and try to get the first seat... it's a GREAT view from the top!

Not Just for London anymore.....The DEUCE

2.5 out of 5 starsHelpfulness

raevnzno 122 reviews

We now have double decker bussed similar to those found in London. Except ours are totally enclosed, and gold not red. After all, you really wouldn't want to be stuck on the upper level of an open air double decker in the middle of July when the temp is hovering around 115 degrees....would you?
The DEUCE runs the length of the resort corridor, otherwise known as The Strip. From the Downtown Transportation Center/DCT to the South Side Transportation Center/ SSTC. Fare are $2 one way, or you can purchase a $5 all access pass. the pass is valid for 24 hours and also good on any CAT bus or Maxx Bus.
So, Get off your feet and jump on the DEUCE, try for that upper level front seat for the best view of the strip.

CAT 301 Bus

alanh24 3 reviews

The CAT bus is one of the easiest ways to get up and down the Strip. If you catch route 301 it costs around $3 to ride the entire length of the Strip and as they run 24 hours a day it's great if you don't want to walk.

Be aware that they dont give change so make sure you have a good supply of Dollar bils

Bus Routes 301 and 302
Emmjai profile photo
Emmjai 199 reviews

Traffic moves slowly on the Las Vegas Strip, whenever you travel, and in whichever direction. You can use taxis (and pay for the time spent in the cab as well as the distance travelled) or you can use the CAT bus system, paying only for the distance travelled (at $2 a ride). OK, so you may have to stand, and it gets a bit hot and sticky, but it is a useful means of transport in the city.
