Any good tips for a trip to Las Vegas?
September 30th, 2008
Me and some friends are planning to visit Las Vegas in March. Does anyone have helpful advice for good deals on hotels, shows, and site seeing? What's good/what's not.
go during the week. you will be able to get a better deal on your room. the casinos and clubs are also a lot less crowded. it vegas, so the place is always rocking, but the weekends can get to be a little too much. pick a nice hotel on the strip. check out the other places. there is a pretty decent ,monorail system and cabs from one end of the strip to the other cost about $10. if you take a day, the strip is walkable and that is a good way to hit all the sites. while you should check out the other hotels, you should do most of your betting, partying, and show seeing in the place that you are staying. you are their guest and they will go out their way to accomodate you. i stayed at the mandalay bay last time i went and i loved it. great pool, great bars and restaurants, house of blues and big shows at the events center, classy place (doesn't cram a theme down your throat). if you have the money, stay in the middle of the strip at either the bellagio, the venetian, or caesars palace. one last thing, do your research. you can find great deals and hidden gems in vegas more than almost anywhere else you want to go.
