[@roxas896]

The Vegas hotel fees kill me😢. You really have to know your way around. Thank you so much for all of you informational tip videos.🙋🏾‍♀️

[@YellowProductions]

Thanks Roxa.. yes. The fees in Vegas are obnoxious!

[@annarapovy8088]

Born and raised Vegas here. The opening for the fountain Blue was so sad….I remember when a new casino opened it was a huge show, showgirls, party favors, free drinks (for 2 hours) fireworks, it was like New Year’s Eve. Now openings is so boring. I miss my old Vegas

[@YellowProductions]

Well said

[@thewhatupdoegirl3584]

Me too.. it's even more sad for the people that just now coming to Vegas for the first time. They will never know 😔

[@richardmercer2337]

Just want to say *THANKS*! for the walking tour of The Strip a few days ago. That was a real nostalgia trip for me; several years ago I stayed on The Strip, and one day walked all the way up and down The Strip -- partly for the exercise and partly to "see it all".

[@YellowProductions]

Awesome... thanks so much Richard!

[@jameshiga8077]

Hi Chris. Thank you for the very informative guide of Vegas in 2024. Looking forward to trying Peter Luger's and Tony Luke's Cheese steaks. Your driving audio tour is a great idea. It will be wonderful to hear the great info while exploring Vegas. Take care.

[@YellowProductions]

Thanks James!

[@Hintonbro.]

Love that Chris points out things not yet mentioned in other Vegas videos like the adult Play place.. or the high end mini golf..

[@YellowProductions]

Thanks Hinton.. glad to see my on the ground research pays off 😀

[@NothingMaster]

Chris, did you really mean to say, “they spent a BILLION dollars to upgrade the 3 fountains”?!?! 😳😳😳 An EXCELLENT and highly informative presentation, by the way.

[@YellowProductions]

I Meant to say they spent a "million" with an m :)

I was just in Vegas but unfortunately had the flu ! Can't wait to go back and enjoy all of the stuff !

[@YellowProductions]

Bummer!

[@michaelaronson7253]

I was there at the same time! Great info. I will add that the Monorail is one of the best cost savings things you can utilize. It runs 19-20 hours a day between the MGM and the Sahara, with several stops in between. I bought the 2 day all you can ride pass for about $25 dollars. I will also say that in my opinion, riding it at night gives you the best view of the sphere, as it travels right up next to it, near the Boingo station stop.

[@YellowProductions]

Thanks for the tip Michael! It's especially a great way to get around on New Years Eve when the strip is closed

[@michaelaronson7253]

Also I haven't seen a lot of Vegas shows, but I saw the Michael Jackson One show at Mandalay Bay, and it was unreal. Again I don't know how it stacks up to the other shows, but the pyrotechnics, acrobatics, and other special effects were intense. I'm not even a fan of Michael, but I would pay to see that show again

[@djm5687]

The ordinary RTC bus is only $20 for three days. The RTC goes to more places, and is easier to find than the monorail. The Las Vegas Monorail will be closing in a few years.

[@KevinShaughnessy-lf3vs]

The Las Vegas Strip doesn't always appear to be budget friendly . In fact, reward cards lower or waive resort fees It's a method to minimize overbooking . It's imposed by the hotel association not the hotels . The average cost of a room on or off of the strip is $100.00 resort fee included with all MGM - Caesars Entertainment properties. with free parking ! The Flamingo The Linq , MGM - Park MGM Excalibur, Luxor Also The Sahara- Casino Royale & Horseshoe

[@user-ih9gt8op5d]

Love las vegas.even every year my family n I go for vacation.its always changes n different something new each time we visit.👍

[@Goaltimer]

A Las Vegas local told me around 20 years ago that parking will always be free on the strip as long as you are alive to lose you money at the casino. Unfortunately a statement from the past.

[@YellowProductions]

Sad indeed

[@frankdykes8569]

[@scottman895]

These are quite a bit of updates for 2024! It's always interesting to see what changes are coming to Vegas each year. This is especially helpful as I might actually be considering a trip to Vegas finally early this year although I'll probably be doing some things outside of Vegas too.

[@YellowProductions]

Awesome Scott!

[@chrisguardiano6143]

Great video Chris. I will be visiting Vegas in a few weeks (staying at Rio) & hopefully the new owners there make some changes that will give the property a jolt of energy like it had in the 90's. Defnitely going to try Zippy's while I am there.

[@YellowProductions]

Awesome! Hopefully the food court is open by then!

[@adamben-shimon7513]

I love Las Vegas! I want to go there again !

[@BagsByCABYarnTravels]

Hi Chris! Thank you for the 2024 update! I really enjoyed it. I also like that Vegas is having more visible security and police presence. I do not like that everything is more expensive from the rooms to the food to the attractions. I feel they are just trying to make up for the revenue loss during the Pandemic. Nonetheless, I still find myself going a few times a year! CAB😊😊

[@YellowProductions]

My pleasure CAB!

[@MrScottmccarthy]

WOW!!! Lots of amazing NEW stuff to see in Vegas. Thanks Chris. Are you still using Topher in your videos? He really makes your videos. Thanks for all you do. Can't wait to see more of your videos.

Such an epic video, thank you! Any thoughts on the cosmopolitan? It seems like it’d the only Marriott Bonvoy hotel on the strip.

[@aeromotive2]

good question

[@YellowProductions]

I think the Cosmo is nice. Although pricey. The Marriott Chateau is strip adjacent so that's an option too. It's like a 3 minute walk to the strip

[@mrk131324]

Have been in Vegas in 2007 und 2012 and will be back next week (2024). But it does not look like anything is getting better. Proper table gambling and free valet parking made Vegas fun. Now what do get in replace? Just more of the same and less of the good stuff. In 2012 drinks were included as long as you were gambling. Is that thill the case? Oh and of course tipping sucks, but that‘s a general issue with the US. It‘s the one thing that make Macau the superior destination.

[@YellowProductions]

Yes. You still get free drinks gambling

[@otrebla8944]

Where is Caesar getting the water for their fountains?

[@stephenmcallister2169]

it’s recycled

[@nftking1]

The Rio looked sad lol

[@YellowProductions]

Sure did

[@portcybertryx222]

There are a couple reasons why Vegas is turning into this. Like macau or Singapore or Dubai eventually things will get expensive as the city unveils more high end attractions and tries to cater to a wider market (aka families with money to spend) thus the city is tamer and will adjust its prices accordingly. Vegas has become more of an entertainment capital and in todays world of stiff competition with other entertainment hubs it has to up the stakes( hence more money which drives prices up) to make things more exclusive to Vegas. And people are willing to pay more so these corporations will keep pushing prices up. Speaking of the corporations MGM and Caesar’s have established a duopoly on the Strip and hence the lack of competition will also not help in bringing down prices anytime soon. Hopefully the Las Vegas council will address that.

[@simpleactive5730]

Love your videos... but take it from a local.. these new casinos and the prices are out of hand.. some billionare should invest in the old style DOWNTOWN style of casinos... Cater to the people who can really afford it.. the ones who drive from neighboring States who make 30kto 60k a year.. make them feel like they werent ripped off and only left with a massive Hangover.. all while still turning a profit..
