Rip the Mirage. Didnt realize I was staying there at the end of its era almost 2 years ago. The Oasis theme was way cooler than some other gold-rim-everything resorts. The volcano was the coolest thing in Vegas. Plus its cirque setup was fantastic. The Beatles show was great.

Cool. I think that is the way to go if you have plans to travel through the strip daily. There is so much to see for most people to stay around their hotel that they may want to wait to their second Vegas trip before committing to a 3 day pass.

Accumulating points quickly is feasible if you commit to learning the methods for maximizing point earnings. You'll need to download several apps, ideally all available ones, and aim to earn the maximum daily points from each. The primary challenge is gathering enough points in time for a complimentary night, considering the time needed to purchase the reward and plan your stay. Only certain nights are eligible for comping, and you'll only discover which ones after purchasing the reward and logging into the MGM website to book. If you're new to the reward system, it's advisable to casually collect points and aim for a complimentary night during your subsequent Vegas visit.

The Monorail is great when you want to cover the broader Strip beyond the most densely-populated touristy crowds. It doesn't make any sense whatsoever if you're staying on the central Strip and base your entire trip around the central Strip like many tend to do, but for those who are more adventurous and want to live a little beyond center Strip I find the Monorail a great option. 🙂 The Deuce simply isn't worth it if you're using it exclusively to get from one Strip resort to another. You're simply better off walking in this context. But if you're using the Deuce to get to the Fremont Street Experience, I do think it'd worth it in that context. It can sometimes be tedious and even smothering a commute, but it still beats paying more for an Uber. I've never seen any real use value in the trams personally. It may just be because I'm a fast walker, but even so how much ground are you REALLY covering with any of them? A pretty negligible amount if you ask me. But I guess the novelty of doing it just to say you did is certainly there for first-timers. 🙂 All in all walking is EASILY my favorite of the four options, followed easily by the Monorail. I personally enjoy walking all the way from Mandalay Bay to Sahara at least once every trip (or vice-versa), and it's a great way to get steps in and keep those alcohol and sugar calories in check I've found, as well as keep a pulse on all the exciting changes up and down the ever-shapeshifting Strip. 😇

That’s how the prices are quoted. I guess it’s like flights when you look up flight prices they often don’t include seat selection or check in luggage but still add up to the total ticket price. All the Vegas strip hotels have resort fees. The lower end ones like Excalibur from mgm has a resort fee of about 35 per night. The higher end ones from Cesar’s or mgm have resort fees at almost 50 per night like for Cesar’s palace or Bellagio. Thank you for the comment.

@TravelMaximizer
@TravelMaximizer Ай бұрын
Hi, yes in America the main store to buy electronics is Best Buy. If you try to buy electronics on the strip they will be very high priced. You are better off taking an uber to bestbuy if you want to buy something expensive. There are a few targets on the strip but I don’t think these re the ones that sell electronics although normally target does sell laptops and video game consoles if they are the normal large targets. The city targets are smaller versions more like a cvs. If you want to buy small things like memory cards or phone chargers then maybe a cvs or general goods store like ABC stores on the strip will have something like that. Good luck and have fun in Vegas!

I have been playing multiple games for over 2 years. I’ve redeemed them on 2 different trips. The rewards are legitimate. Tips: always read the terms & conditions before purchasing. The free night, free play, free food or shows, are the best way for a low roller to feel like a high roller. The SPA discount was a let down because although the discount applied as stated, the cost of the massage was WAY more than I would have spent (my fault for not checking the prices ahead of time).

@JohnnyReno71 yes! That’s the monorail. That one is much better and goes through the entire strip. The cost is reasonable for what you get but it can be a long walk to the monorail from the strip so it only comes in handy if you are going farther distances. The trams are free and go only 2 stops. You can catch them inside the Mandalay Bay, Luxor, Excalibur or the other one is in the park mgm and goes to aria and the bellagio which is center strip. Thanks for the comment!

I've found the Deuce to be the most useful for Strip travel, but it is the city bus & you should know that going in. Public transit can be an adventure. Monorail is great, but limited - and unreliable in rainy winter conditions. If you're up at the Sahara/Westgate area or need to get up there from the Strip, it's golden, but otherwise not really useful - especially considering the walk to the rear of some casino and back. I've seen Monorail cars stuck on the tracks for over an hour in the cold rain. Maybe have a pee and grab a drink before boarding if it's gloomy out. Oh, and you do get some great views from there. Free trams are nice and all, but super limited for destinations. Hyperloop is promising and works well within the CC. It's being expanded at the moment, and should be opening stops at the Westgate and Resorts World awful soon. Legend has it that it will go to downtown and the airport at some point in the future.

Well she accidentally dropped something on the floor, when she went to pick it up. She saw a used vape and condom on the ground, under the counter. They were of course not ours. When my dad was telling front desk what happened, they did nothing. That was just my family experience there. Everything else was amazing.
