Ok so we’ve got rooms booked at the Venetian and the plan is to do bottle service both nights (fri and sat) At Tryst one night and Pure the second, but we are also looking for good deals, I’ve heard of buy 2 bottles get 1 free deal, and other such deals would be cool, VIP Passes are unnecessary because we are getting table service,

Id prefer not to use a VIP host and do it on my own

Also, I’m trying to get a party bus for 1 hour strip tour on saturday night after the club anybody know any good deals from legitimate companies?? thanks

of course best answer will be given

Sorry to rain on your parade, but a bunch of guys are not going to get a bottle deal on your own, especially at Tryst on a Friday night. I doubt even a VIP Host will be able to get you a bottle deal anywhere on the Wynn properties over a weekend.

Fact is the clubs don’t like bachelor parties, they want girls and a lot of them!

Send me an email with more details and I can guide you in a better direction.

i am going to Las Vegas in July and it is my first time ever going. I was just curious as to what YOU personally think are great places to visit while out there.. also any tips to navigating the area? im afraid i will be so overwhelmed that i will get lost in the shuffle

it can be dining suggestions (i hear the Bellagio buffet is amazing and a must on anyones trip) where to eat, where NOT to eat etc etc

shopping suggestions

or sightseeing

basically ANYTHING that is in the Las Vegas strip area because we wont have a car and need to either walk or take a cab =)

its for my boyfriend and I, we are going out there for a wedding and staying an extra 4 days just the 2 of us =)

Navigating Tips are VERY important!! I wish someone would have given me some before I went because we spent the first 2 days wasting tons of time walking around and I got blisters on my feet!!!

First off, dont be shocked at how much walking you will be doing. Just walking inside the casinos alone can be miles long!! So plan out where you are going and know where it is so you dont waste time. There are some casino-to-casino monorails you should know about. One is Mirage to Treasure Island (vice versa) there is another one that runs between Mandalay Bay-Luxor-Excalibur. They are fast, free and easy to use and will save you much time.
There is another monorail that runs the strip but its in back of the hotels and I DO NOT recommend it. It costs $5 for one way and it doesnt save you any time because you have to walk all the way through casinos to get to them.
What I do recommend is "The Deuce" bus. You can get a day pass for $5 and you can ride it all day long. It runs 24/7 and it picks up at any and all casinos pretty much. Just wait outside the front of any of them and one will come within 2-5 mins. They are FAST and will save u tons of time. We only learned about this on our 3rd day and were angry we didnt use it the first two. It even will take you downtown to freemont street if you wish and you should definately check that out! Its a blast down there!!!

Also, theres a shuttle that will take you to the Hard Rock Hotel if you wanna go there. Its over by MGM. Look for the sign. Theres also shuttles to and from the Rio over at Paris if you need them at all as well.
Theres basically shuttles and buses everywhere if you just pay attention to them.

If you do what I suggest you wont ever have to waste money on a cab. The Deuce is awesome! Use it!

Have Fun!

I have a bachelor party in Vegas and I wanted to surprise the groom with a basketball game (and yes, I know that the Palms has a half court for $10,000 a night–DEFINITELY not in that budget). I wanted to stay on the strip if possible as opposed to renting a bus to get to a public court.
I wanted to find out if any of the hotels had basketball courts inside them.

Close to strip
Carriage House
105 E Harmon Ave
Las Vegas, NV 89109

This hotel is non-gaming but right across the street from Planet Hollywood.

Afew miles west of strip
Westgate Flamingo Bay
5625 W Flamingo Rd
Las Vegas, NV 89103

This is probably too far off the strip to be desired.

The Hawthorn Suites used to have a basketball court but removed it during their remodel to the Desert Rose Las Vegas.

Any recommendations for a 40 something female to go in Las Vegas?

My boyfriend and I are going to Las Vegas this summer and are looking for a truly exceptional dining experience. Which of the many, many restaurants would you recommend?

If you want REALLY GREAT food in nice warm atmosphere, I suggest Capital Grill down by Fashion Show Mall. They have wonderful steak, lobster, and this is the only restaurant I will eat caviar at. They have an extensive wine list and will pair for you.

If you want something a little more VEGAS and more atmosphere oriented, try the Mandalay Bay’s Asian restaurant China Grill, it is good food and GREAT service. There is another restaurant there that is a Charlie Palmer restaurant called Aureole with a 4 story wine tower that a girl will climb to get wine as ordered. Also, there is Red Square at Mandalay. This is the Russian Vodka bar with a frozen bar. They have great appetizers, very different. They also have a dinner menu if I remember correct but the Vodka is great! There is also the Charlie Palmer Steak house at Mandalay too. This is good fine dining. Red, White and Blue is the best lunch spot in Vegas in my opinion. They have great salads, sandwiches and desserts (ice cream…yum) This is also in Mandalay.

Grand Lux in the Venetian is a good breakfast and lunch (they have an awesome eggs benedict).

Bellagio has a japanese steakhouse called Shintaro. Great food but large quantities. Jasmine at Bellagio is elaborately decorated and supposed to be set for romance. Food is pretty darn good as well.

Have Fun!

First off, why would you want to get gamble for one hour just to get free meals? The average buffet meal price is $15.
A buffet or coffee shop comp is fairly easy to obtain at most casinos. All you have to do is ask for it. but first, to get a comp, you need to sign up for the player’s club and use your card whenever you play at the table. http://www.lasvegas-how-to.com/players-club-card.php

My boyfriend and I are planning a trip to Las Vegas towards the end of July. I know how expensive it can be so I was hoping we can score some free shows or night clubs tickets. Any advice or tips???

Free tickets is really not an option. Sometimes you can get cheap tickets by doing a timeshare tour, but those are nasty and not fun! I suggest going through a place like Best Of Vegas where you can get good discounts on the shows http://www.bestofvegas.com/Shows-Tickets/

Cheers!

I found several on line but I don’t know which to choose.We are going in 2 weeks and I would appreciate any travel advice.

I had friends who used gray lines no complaints

How can I get a cheap 1 way ticket (by bus) to the Grand Canyon? I noticed greyhound doesn’t offer it… any suggestions?

Take a Greyhound bus to Williams AZ and then find another way to GCanyon like the tran. I bet you check for tours to GC rather than a one-way ride, which is very unusual

Im looking for a tour company that have a good reputation…. i know there will always be a few bad ones.

Looking for a helicopter tour as i would like to go see the gran canyon and go on the skywalk

The Grand Canyon is not in Nevada, but Arizona and yes there is a copter ride that will take you there and even down into the canyon. But it is an all-day thing. Grand Canyon Adventures located at 3200 Las Vegas Boulevard South 702.259.8687.

THere are four other tours but not located on Strip.
