Norma. I'm a 68 year old female and I walk around Vegas by myself. My son lives nearby, but I stay on the strip when I visit. It's actually liberating to do Vegas alone. I love to play poker so that is my "socializing" part of my day. I love that I can sleep as late as I want, eat when I want and not be tied to schedules and hunger of others. I learned a long time ago that its better to be in NO relationship than a bad relationship. Relationships will come and go, but great friends last a lifetime. Just because someone is alone, doesn't mean they are lonely. Keep doing what you're doing. You absolutely rock!!!

Rev. 17:9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. We must get the value of MOUNTAINS and add SEVEN to get the city number. Once we have the city number, we match the number to a city name. MOUNTAINS = 13+15+21+14+20+1+9+14+19 = 126 SEVEN MOUNTAINS = 7 + 126 = 133 LAS VEGAS NEVADA = 12+1+19 + 22+5+7+1+19 + 14+5+22+1+4+1 = 133 Simple English Gematria A=1---Z=26 value of the seven mountains that surround Las Vegas Nevada. They need to equal to 133. Frenchman Mountain Fault; Whitney Mesa Fault; Cashman Fault; Valley View Fault; Decatur Fault; Eglington Fault; West Charleston Fault = 6+18+5+14+3+8+13+1+14 + 13+15+21+14+20+1+9+14 + 6+1+21+12+20 + 23+8+9+20+14+5+25 + 13+5+19+1 + 6+1+21+12+20 + 3+1+19+8+13+1+14 + 6+1+21+12+20 + 22+1+12+12+5+25 + 22+9+5+23 + 6+1+21+12+20 + 4+5+3+1+20+21+18 + 6+1+21+12+20 + 5+7+12+9+14+7+20+15+14 + 6+1+21+12+20 + 23+5+19+20 + 3+8+1+18+12+5+19+20+15+14 + 6+1+21+12+20 = 1303. The number 1303 is 133 because 0 isn’t a number just a place holder. LAS VEGAS NEVADA is that GREAT CITY BABYLON that GOD destroys.

Nice to hear that some solo travlers found it helpfull. I found it very weird- I would never recommend solo travelers to drink alkohol on the first go around solo in new place. I travel alone a lot bc I don't like to party like my friends. I don't want to socialize. I want to explore and take my time. Perhaps I read to much into it, but when someone says.. you don't need to feel sad alone, u can do what you want, I hear that they think solo travels means lonely/sad. I do appreciate the safety advice from locals but I would like if solo travel was respected more as an active choice.

Being in your 'hood all the time, around the same friends and family, is a you that is nearly completely molded by those elements. I believe that adventuring by yourself is the *best* way to grow ... spiritually _and_ emotionally!

I am a solo traveler, on my 7th trip alone to Vegas. A couple of things that is not mentioned in the video: when gambling, it is super easy to socialize with other people at the tables. If it is a table game or poker, or even slots. People are usually very friendly and Pai Gow Poker for example, is especially social with players helping each other, and it is also one of the games with the lowest volatility, making your money last longer. Also, regular poker is super-social, and the only game in the casino where you don`t play against the house. Another tip is watching sport events at a bar or sportsbook. Sit at the bar, and again very easy to socialize with other patrons. Another safety tip; do not accept anything from people on the street, they will usually aggressively demand money from you. If you are female and feel unsafe, find a group or a couple and ask politely if you can stay with them until the aggressor is gone. Also, Vegas is the entertainment capital of the world for a reason. Go see the shows, but also remember, there are countless concerts by the biggest artists/bands in the world, stand-up comedians, magicians etc etc.

Not Vegas, but my first adult trip was a solo trip to NYC. My first time on a plane and first time doing anything by myself. It was the best experience of my life. I got to do what I wanted to do and I enjoyed every minute of it alone. I’m a shy person and it was intimidating at first, but no matter where you go you’ll find nice people around. I wanted a picture with Tupac at the museum and a girl my age and her mother were there and she offered to take the picture for me because I was struggling lol. When I went to the Statue Of Liberty I looked around and saw a young couple and asked them to take my picture. I needed direction and I looked around and saw a man standing outside smoking and I asked him. Everyone I asked looked nice enough and took the chance to talk to them and they were all friendly. I even befriended a family I kept seeing around the city. Even though I was alone I took chances to start up conversations with people everywhere I went. If I was at a museum I randomly would start a conversation about the art piece, I went to a restaurant solo and talked to the people next to me about suggestions on food, I talked to locals while waiting for the bus and I noticed so many other solo travelers. It was a great experience and being solo is such a great thing if you know what you want to do. You don’t have to wait for others or rush/stay too long at places.

38F single. I solo to Vegas at least once a year for the past 10 years (except 2020). Here are my tips: 1) Travel mid week (you don't have to fit other people's schedule) and stay at nice, large hotel/casino. Mid week prices are unbeatable. Big hotel/casino offers a lot to do without wandering the Strip alone. Don't skimp on the hotel. At night, I usually stay on property or the immediate neighbor. Also Vegas mid-week is more relaxing. Less crowds, quieter vibes even by the current visitors. 2) Spa time. Best Spa's I have been to are in Las Vegas. Hands down. LA and NYC "day spas" are not even close. Many spa's have spa guest only heated indoor pools (besides jacuzzi's), so you also get away from the busy hotels pools and heat in the summer/cold in the winter. 3) Shows. Best thing to do alone. You can't talk to your neighbor/partner anyways. 4) Go to dinner on the early side 5:30-6:00 and sit at the bar counter (before it fills up). I don't have to make reservations because usually there is an open bar seat at 5:30pm (1st come, 1st serve). Every restaurant I have gone to offers full menu at their bar. 5) Go to bed at a decent time! I tell people I am in bed by 10:30pm on these trips. No clubs/all night stuff. Sleep is good and why I pick the nicer hotels (take advantage of midweek pricing). And the next morning you can beat the crowds to brunch.

Caught a cab ride to a show and met a lovely couple headed that way too - we shared a cab ride to the show. I even went to a male strip show by myself - because why not!? I met so many interesting people while eating by myself too. During one of my recent trips my bf had a late work meeting so I ended up going to see the jabbawockeez by myself and had so much fun!

I just got back from a solo trip to Vegas. It's the perfect city for it. If you want to see a show, it's easier to find the best seats if you're going solo. Also I'm shocked, SHOCKED~~! that someone spoke to Norma while she was sitting alone at a bar. 😆

Hi Norma! I always go to Vegas alone; 2-3 times per year. I stay at a 5-star resort on the strip, where I get to be treated like royalty. The resort has a very nice restaurant, on the casino floor. If you want to try something, most time it can be prepared. The ice cream "center" is by the gondolas; subtle hint, for the finest Italian ice cream. Solo travelers will be extremely happy with what the resort offers. Safe travels!

I was so glad to hear the part about "Love". I'm a huge Beatles' fan and had been wanting to see "Love" ever since it came out. I went to Vegas for the first time back in February and took my wife and daughter. My 15 year old daughter and I loved it to death. We both had chills and tears throughout the show. Also, I started watching your videos when I was researching what to do in Vegas for the trip I took in February. Even though I am probably not going to be able to come visit Vegas again anytime soon I still enjoy watching your videos every week.

My best trips to Vegas have been when I've come by myself. I never let the fact that I'm alone stop me from doing what I want, no matter where I am. I've seen Ka, Love and Carrot Top by myself. I've done the helicopter ride and Avengers Station by myself. I've eaten at Hell's Kitchen by myself. I've been to Red Rock Canyon by myself. I get to do what I want to do with no one to tell me no.

Loved this video Norma. Right before the pandemic I took a solo four-day trip, stayed at Park MGM, saw Aerosmith in concert, the Neon Museum, the Lady Gaga exhibit, good restaurants, gambled a bit, bought some clothes way off the strip (I'm Canadian so they had different styles and the prices were good too), it was a lot of fun. My adage is it's better to travel on your own than not travelling at all. 🤓🎉

I travel alot by myself outside the US but not as much within the US. However, I went to Vegas solo last year and had a blast! I did a photo tour of the strip (by Lydia from @lasvegasphototour, who I think I found in one of your videos before my trip), walked around Fremont St listening to the live music at night, hung out at the pool bar in the hotel and chatted with people (one of whom I ended up going to ride some stuff on top of the Strat with one evening), went to a Cirque show, went to a concert (Harry Styles, the main reason for the trip), bought a city pass that had included entry to several attractions that I did (such as: the NYNY roller coaster, Real Bodies at Bally, Hunger Games exhibit and the Atomic museum), spent a half-day at AREA15, rented a car and drove to 7 magic mountains and then up to Utah and back. It was a fabulous 6 day trip for my birthday!

I'm going to Vegas solo for the first time in like 6 weeks. I want to go to red rock although that might not be the smartest decision in July. I also want to do the mob museum, pinball hall of fame, see the volcano at the mirage, the ethyl m chocolate factory tour. I ate at international smoke last time I was there so looking for a nice restaurant

You'll be fine doing Red Rock Canyon in July they let you in at 6am be there right at opening and that'll give you a few hours to explore without the triple digit heat. I've hiked there 4 times now and it's a must see while in Vegas.
@George06742 жыл бұрын
Even if it's too hot to hike, you can still drive around the ring road at Red Rock Canyon and stop at the different parking areas. Well worth it! Even better is Valley Of Fire for sunrise or sunset. Watching the sunrise near Elephant Rock is spectacular. About an hour north of Vegas.

I've always gone alone.....mostly gone for conventions (used to work at hospitals and helpled the doctors give lectures), but most of the time I was alone, but being a little bit of a extrovert, I can sit at a bar and start a convo with almost anyone, and seems to be a magnet for fun, strange things in Vegas. So I always had a good time, love going to the shows, playing blackjack and poker ( both very socialable games), and always won a little money on the way ( paid for my trip many a time)

Solo travel is great - once you get used to it after your first trip, it's such a great feeling to do whatever you want whenever you want! And for every person that is "feeling sorry" for you there are 5 people who would be a little jealous that you can take a genuine "vacation" from your regular life. Oh - and I'm in Vegas now going solo - it's great.

Great video! Whenever I tell people im taking a trip somewhere, it is annoying because the first question they usually ask me is "Oh, who are you going with?". Instead of them asking me something like "Oh, what are you going to do there, or are you excited?" All they care about is WHO I am going with, so its kind of annoying. Then after they hear im traveling solo I see the look in there eyes like I'm not going to have any fun. Studies have actually shown you learn more when you travel alone because you have to do more planning and decision making so its a great experience after all.......

I moved to Vegas Feb 1st after spending 2 or 3 trips to Vegas in 2021 alone (it was planned that way). Now I am a Table Games Dealer at the STRAT for the last 3 months. I go out alone over 90% of the time. I find myself on Fremont on my weekend. The best spot if you like to Casino hop and people watch. Golden Nugget is the go to for the best meal experiences on Fremont, but Circa has some great options as well. Now that I am a Vegas resident I find myself going to the local casinos, all Station, Boyd and of course Jerry's Nugget. Love the videos.

Yet at the same time a person can have a lot of fun. Love your smile young lady and loving the videos!

Solo trips, especially to Vegas, are amazing! To anyone who has never tried it, try it at least once. I always get a table if possible as not only is it more comfortable, the servers are usually extra nice. I only had one hostess who seemed to think it was odd (kept mentioning me being by myself) but usually they either give all around great service or at the more expensive places, great service with a little extra something compliments of the chef for being a solo guest.
