    The streets are big! If you're a tourist here and you've driven here on your vacation then just leave your car at the hotel! There are plenty of ways to get around Las Vegas - Monorail at one end, lots of hotel buses and shuttles run between different areas, there is a local bus service as well. If you are brave you could even walk!

    By bus or car, I've done them all. If you drive I suggest that you leave your vehicle in the hotel ramp until you leave. There are plenty of other ways to get around while your in Vegas. One of the cheapest would be by the trolley or bus that runs along the strip. I usually take a taxi because it's a lot faster. If you are flying into Vegas and if your wanting to hit the casinos right away I suggest getting a taxi. If your on a budget than take the shuttle. It will take you some time to get to your hotel with possible stops along the way to other hotels.

    Plane or Car depending on where you are. Take cabs to places off the strip.Take the monorail to places on the strip.You can catch the monorail in back of Bally's and MGM Grand on one side and on the other, The Monte Carlo and The Mirage,it's FREE!

  • Along the Strip, there is the 'Cat Bus' - a cheap alternative to sightseeing trolleys. Plus there are two monorails connecting casinos - one starts at the MGM Grand and takes you near Cesars Palace, the other one runs along the outer strip in order to connect the Mandalay, Luxor, Excalibur....

  • Fly or drive. Flights are relatively inexpensive and the drive can be a straight through shot depending on where you're coming from. Walk when you're on the strip. You'll be more inclined to walk in and check things out versus when you're driving. Plus it can somethimes take you about 40 minutes to get from one end of the strip to the other.

    At the airport, right outside the doors at 'Baggage Claim', you'll see people in line to buy a shuttle ticket. Buy a $7.50 round-trip shuttle ticket to your hotel on the Strip. Use half the ticket when you arrive and the second half for the day you depart. The clerk will explain how the return shuttle ride works. Once on the Strip, if you plan on visiting the different hotels, take advantage of the free tram rides that connect certain hotels to one another. This will keep you off the sidewalk and out of the hot sun. There is a tram that connects: (1) Mandalay, Luxor & Excalibur (2) Monte Carlo & Bellagio (3) Mirage & Treasure Island (4) Bally's & MGM These trams help you 'beat the heat' and get you up & down the Strip more efficiently. Use them at every opportunity to conserve your energy, because hotel-hopping can be very draining. (Combine this with buying cold water at the hotel gift shops along the way and you'll be 'cool' all afternoon.) There is also a $2 city bus you can take, the CAT 301. This bus runs along the Strip and makes plenty of stops along the way. This bus is great to zip you back to your hotel at the end of the day. (For more information, see my 'Transportation' suggestion #2.) Taxi cabs are also readily available, especially on the Strip in front of each hotel.

    We flew in on Southwest Airlines. We rented a car and had a blast!! Bring a map though! Las Vegas is huge and you'll wear out your walking shoes trying to do the Strip by foot. I'd suggest taking advantage of the tremendous free parking and driving from sight to sight. Even then we did, in fact, walk a lot. There are also lots of busses but if you use them a lot, it does add up and we found renting a car to be much more economical - not to mention the fact that it gave us such freedom!

    Vegas has a great transportation system! Although my mom has a horror story of waiting for a cab at the airport for over 45min. I have never had a problem getting to, around or away from Las Vegas. Taxis are the easiest way to get around. You are never more than 50 feet from the nearest cab no matter where you are at. All the cab drivers that I have experienced are always very nice and polite. Even the one's that are in a bad mood are very polite about it. They are very helpful and have all the inside info about their city. So ask for their advice and any suggestions they might have. From the airport use the Grey Line Shuttle to get to your hotel. You can purchase tickets at the airport or better yet order them with your travel package and you will get a discount. Taxi service from the airport to the strip is very reasonable. There are a lot of ways to get around in Vegas. There are free monorails that run from the MGM to Balley's. From Excalibur to the Luxor and Mandalay Bay. Or from the Monte Carlo to the Bellagio. There is a trolley service that runs the entire strip with over 15 stops for under $2. We start out by taking the monorail to a different part of the strip. Then walk to where we want to go. After several hours of sight seeing or when our legs are about to fall off, we grab a cab back to the hotel. Most fares will average $8 to $10.

  • Travel by foot whenever you can. (Easy for me to say -- I was there in February.) It's the best way to people watch and see the sights. There's a perfectly good bus that will take you from the strip to downtown and back again, but it can get awfully full (watch your purse or your wallet) and, as a result, may pass right by you as you wait. I don't think taxis are allowed to cruise the Strip for fares. If you need one, get the doorman at the casino to help you. If you're in a hurry, tell the driver to use the access road, not the strip -- it's much faster and cheaper.

  • There are trams going from Hotel to Hotel usually. There are electric walkways and escilators all over the main strip, how futuristic. Taxis line up outside each hotel if you need one.
