Always keep an eye on your pockets/bags if you're watching the Bellagio fountains. Everyone's watching the show, most people are filming on their phones and it's a pickpocket's paradise.

I've been to Vegas a couple times and luckily haven't made these mistakes. However, I always love learning from other travelers. Thanks for all the advice, Chris!
Went a couple weeks ago with my 18yr old daughter. Did lots of planning and watched all your videos plus a few others. We had an amazing trip and were fully prepared! I’ve been before but it was her first time and she wants to go back. :)
one thing i learned from visiting Vegas twice, is to bring a smaller jacket to wear inside the hotels. Especially during the summer (the time during the year i was there 2017 and 2018) it can be really cold inside the big hotels, like Mandalay bay and the convention center and the luxor. Bring a jacket with you just in case things start to get a little chilly.
One nice thing about booking MGM properties through their web site, is that they include the hotel fee on there. They do mention the deposit for incidentals but it's not included in the total because you do get it back after checkout, but at least they do equate the resort fees on there. I always tell my friends to look at the incidentals fee and make sure they include that into their budget since they won't have access to those funds during their stay.
we are going to vegas in June normally go at christmas but its absouletely freezing with a wind chill that could slice you in half,we wanted to go this year in april,but it had to be june due to work. while not looking forward to the high temps it will be nice to get about wearing t shirts and shorts for a change without shivering. according to locals oct/november is the perfect time, striking the balance between to hot and to cold
I've spent in excess of 100 nights in Vegas. Thank God I started years ago. I got a taste of a Las Vegas that simply doesn't exist anymore. One thing I wanted to say, BE CAREFUL. You can exit a casino on the back of the property (opposite of the strip) walk 100 feet and be in "no man's land. Crowbar to the head, shank between the ribs. Anyone that attempts to walk from the Strip to "downtown" damned sure better have a swat team with them.The gangs own that turf and they love to see that older couple from Kansas walking by. Done right, an incredible experience.
Thank you for the tips! The very last tip is definitely the most important, and I am glad it was featured. I need to check out Las Vegas and the surrounding area one of these days. Your videos will be the best guides available!
“LOVE” your videos! First time I went to Vegas was an absolute nightmare. After that subscribed and watched your videos, they’ve been on point every time, people can’t underestimate enough listening to your advice. Thank you so much. My girlfriend and I joke that we owe you a kickback check, LOL. Keep up the great work
My boyfriend and I went to the snack store in the flamingo and we spent 25 dollars on two drinks, beef jerky, and a bag of small chips! Like what 😂💀 we didn’t know. A big mistake because we can’t stop thinking about this til this day
@John Davis I did go to 7/11 and other places out of the strip! I went to Vegas for 5 days and only spent 2 days on the strip. I honestly like it better off the strip :)
Another mistake is forgetting how dry the air is, and how this can really affect your sinuses. People from humid states (like Florida) will suffer unless they buy a vaporizer/humidifier from the local Walgreen's or CVS for use in the hotel room at night
We did quite a few of these last November. We stayed in the Luxor, walked as far as treasure island, after that it didn’t look as interesting so we crossed over and walked back down the other side. We got the deuce bus pass also. So we went to Fremont street and the famous gold shop and that way on, we also walked from caesars palace to the Rio to see penn and teller. My top 3 things we did: 1- see David Copperfield at the MGM, the best show I have EVER seen. 2- visiting the Welcome To Las Vegas sign, it’s just something you have to do. 3- playing (responsibly) in the casinos. It’s what Vegas is about. The worst thing I did- Eat at Hells Kitchen. Didn’t enjoy the over priced food and drink but I can say I have eaten there so that’s nice.
Shuttle buses are great from the airport to your hotel. Most charge $17 round trip. The drawback is the buses run a route through the resorts, and you might spend an hour or more riding the shuttle before you get to your hotel. The buses also drop you off at a different area from the cabs. But, you cannot really beat the price. Resorts off the strip also offer their own shuttles, as long as you stay at the hotel, it is free.
Been to vegas twice, I've done this twice. I like the MGM signature so really I could take the shoe leather express to and from if I had to (which is part of the reason I stay there) but for $20 return, and they treat you well so why not.
I'm going to Vegas in early June. But it's very clear how hot on earth it's going to be. Your video's have been helping me out on what to do and where it's at. Got a fan from Michigan
Or do what I did 26 years ago, marrying a local and have a mother in law that worked in the casino's as a dealer for 40 years. Learned alot and had a home to stay at when we visited
Yeah, I tell all my friends to bring walking shoes that are already broken in, as there will be plenty of walking involved, both inside and out. The hotels are HUGE and are designed where you simply can't walk straight through them. They funnel you all throughout the building to keep you there, especially in the casino sections.
unless you are disable walking the Vegas strip is never a problem 12 miles a day is good for the human body even in the day during sunshine. You have many places you can stop and take a break if you have to remember it's only 6 miles each way at the most depending on your starting point and if you are staying at a place in the middle you can do one side a day. I would gladly walk and take in everything, in fact, doing that to me is a good reason to go to Las Vegas to start with it's a good part of people watching.
Insert bitch friends or family members that don't listen and get mass foot blisters and fuck your trip up. Now your loyalty and fun are put to the Blosmy
Resort fees piss the hell out of me...BUT, factor in the resort fees and I can STILL stay in Vegas cheaper than I can at the Holiday Inn 10 miles down the road from where I live. I don't stay at high end hotels, but have never paid more than $50 a night (excluding resort fees)....and have stayed at about a dozen different hotels on the strip. The cheapest stay being at Excalibur ($29 a night + resort fees, when I stayed)which isn't bad at all for a place to sleep.
I love you included #21 desert winter is cold as cold and that wind is cold for sure. the summer wind can be blow dryer too. another weather one is the "monsoon season" late summer that doesn't affect the strip but does the northwest valley "Turn Around Don't Drown"
Those are so true! After we went after about fifth time we learned to not to overeat and drink, your vacation will be miserable and you’ll feel fatigued! Also use sanitizer and EmergenC before plane, on plane, and always take your vitamins! And if you plan to walk a lot, even in comfy sneakers, bring blister meds. And don’t just linger on strip and downtown!
I've been to Las Vegas a few times and walked the strip twice starting from Circus Circus all the way to the Mandalay Bay, I'll never do it again. Timeshares, I usually stay at a hotel actually are timeshares, the timeshare owners rent them out through travel sites; much cheaper and walking distance to the strip. If anyone's interested, it's the Desert Rose Resorts located right behind Hooters, the only complaint, there is a smell just before you get to Hooters other than that a great place to stay.You can take a cab to get where you want to go, just be careful and don't tell the cab driver too much personal information such as how long you going to be in Vegas and where you're from, some of them will use that against you to get more money. In conclusion, if you pay attention to his videos you will find them very informative.
Just got back to michigan yesterday from Vegas and yes it was super windy and cold ! Luckily my wife brought her winter jacket as it was 45 degrees at night in Feb.
I just went two days ago (April) and it wasn't hot at all! It's a really nice time to go because it's not hot or cold!! Btw im your viewer from Mexico ❤️
#6 I did it one day/night. I walked all the way from Downtown to New York, New York I believe it was. I made many stops along the way too so I could see the interiors of many properties. It was FUN to me and great exercise.
So far, I've seen the Yellow Production videos for Waikiki, Vegas, and D.C. Very informative for first time travelers to a new destination. I'll definitely check out more videos as this guy seems to know his stuff.
Man I really loved this video!! All 15 minutes are filled with Good Content!! I love seeing all the cool places you know about in Vegas 🤠 I always learn something new and look forward to going to next time I go to Vegas. Oh and MY TIP #1 BRING YOUR OWN WEED!!!! GRAM OF REGGIE START AT $20. 😂 just like Alcohol, Weed is expensive but it is a little too expensive. Prices are quadrupled 🥶
LMAO. My first time in Vegas, I drank so much the 1st day that my entire 2nd day was just a recovery day. Didnt even rally to make it out the next night. Lesson learned
Great video. I bet within a few months this will be one of your top 5 most viewed. I totally agree about taking the bus down the strip. I once took a bus because I was in a hurry and it took an hour when I could have just walked to where I was going in 30 minutes or so.
Great tips. I stay in a Condo next to Bellagio with a full kitchen and laundry and saved a fortune in food and drinks and just ate out for dinner only, CVS and Walgreens are a godsend. I only walk down the strip when one side is in shade, couldn’t take the bus anyway as it was totally packed. Yes, even walking around two or three casinos in a row is exhausting unless you’re in your 20s!
Actually, I found that Fremont is A LOT sketchier as oppose to staying on the trip. I feel a lot safer on the strip. It’s like a panhandlers paradise there.
The absolute best thing I did was to learn how to get from Mandalay to The Mirage with only actually walking about half the time. Just gotta learn where those trams are.
I enjoy your videos and great tips re: Vegas which helped me prepare for my trip last month 😁 Keep up the good work Chris ..... after the self isolation period of course 😉
I have a question is there a walmart or target in Vegas? I usually go to walmarts to buy sodas and waters when I go on vacations but I never heard of a walmart in vegas
Derrick Klone Hi Derrick. Yes they probably did dig the water bottles out of the trash. And they refilled them with tap water. It’s just best to go to to CVS or Walgreens. It’s a lot more safe and sanitary. Sure it’s a little bit more expensive. But I’d rather spend a little bit more money on a water bottle that’s fresh and sealed then one that’s been used and is dirty.
Just came back from Vegas today and we couldn’t find a good hotel,so we had to stay in circus circus but in the end the room wasn’t bad at all.Subbed!!
buddy, i have to say. as a foreigner because of the pandemic, we couldn't travel at all. And watching your videos makes me feel like im back in vegas. great job bro keep it up
My friend and I recently avoided hotel drama by staying at an Airbnb right off the strip on Koval. Next time I'd like to try a hotel tho. Also, it was indeed pretty annoying finding food after 10pm, so prepare well for that. Go to the ABC store for food and essential for cheap
Hi from Argentina! I just came back from a 1 week easter trip to Vegas, and your videos helped me a lot. Thank you very very much! Regarding point nº22, after viewing Love and One at 21:30, you would be exiting at almoust 23:00 so all the good restaurants are close, but you should go to GRAND LUX CAFE at the Venetian, best place ever to eat in Vegas, not expensive and open 24 hours!
Drinking too much. OMG! This is a mistake I made all the time back in my younger days. I really did miss out a lot of what Vegas had to offer because I would spend the following morning battling a hang over from hell and then all of the previous night was just a haze in my memories. Don't do that anymore. I still drink, but not like that. I pace myself and there are days in Vegas where I don't drink at all. There is so much to enjoy there if you just remain sober. :)
time share should be #1! I stupidly PAID to attend the timeshare the restaurant was picked AND was limited to a cheap spaghetti menu! Was so mad!! thanks PLANET Hollywood!
Next time try Laughlin, Nevada, 90 miles south of Vegas, on the Colorado River. That’s the place to have fun. Jet ski businesses are beginning to buy up all the cheap commercial property straight across the river from Harrah’s casino in Old Bullhead City, AZ. The area that you are showing on the left side (north side) of the park is exactly where City of Bullhead is developing a commercial boat ramp. Some places you can live in while having a great investment at the same time because it’s zoned for commercial but some places are grandfathered in already so they can’t make you move. Plus you are walking distance to the Colorado River and have a great view of the casinos on the opposite side of the river.
Awesome tips!!! I remember going in December years ago, boarded the plane in 75 degree Cali and landing in 40 degree with an even colder wind chill Vegas in a short summer dress and regretting my life choices hahaha
When taking a Urber make sure it's a urber. Ask them who they are waiting for, if they say your name make sure they are who they say they are. ID would be okay to ask. Someone almost died from getting into a car and asking if they were waiting for them. Never say your name. Always ask for ID and look to see a logo of on the car.
Living in Phoenix, I have no issues with the heat. Just need a cold drink and some shade and you are set. Walking down the strip would actually allow people to burn off some of that food. Aside from that I don't have an issue with the recommendations.
@@stevensedlis3901 vegas has alot of its appeal to people who want to party, then you get there and if you do anything other than drink and gamble (lame) they put you in a vegas jail.
Just got back from 2nd trip to Vegas. Using Lyft was the biggest money saver on my last trip. Use whatever app that you can get discounts on! Another money saver is that don’t buy drinks at the bars while in casinos, play some games and use the cocktail waitress to slice that expense right up
Prices on shows: You can also go to the box office for most of the older shows in the day when they’re not busy and ask if they can give you any good deals or discounts. This works very well if you’re watching a weekday show. When I was staying at NYNY a few years ago I got comped a companion ticket a few years ago for a weekday Zumanity show just by asking if there were any better deals available than what I had seen online.
A few years ago we did the walk to the Rio bit. Realized it was a huge mistake about halfway across the bridge. Everything looks so close but came to discover the buildings are huge. That is when and where we started using Uber.
When you play blackjack or roulette, play on the tables with the best odds. Blackjack: Play 3 to 2 payouts. Do NOT play 6 to 5 payouts. Roulette: Play single zero if you can find one. I know The Mirage has one. Try to avoid double zero. And now they are starting to put in TRIPLE zero games in casinos. Avoid them at all costs!
@@sportsbookps5544 Those people do not care what the odds are. Lemmings to the slaughter.They help the stock holders. I will not and they paid for parking!
For number seven,if you drove to vegas then definitely use your car.There are some places you can park for free and from there on,walk around those areas.If you want to go to the Whynn hotel or anywhere around that hotel,theres a free parking lot for the fashion show mall you can park at.If you want to go to the M&M store or see anything theres around that area,then park in an area thats its around their CVS(this one will cost you around 10 bucks but its worth it).Lastly,if you want to see everything around the center of the strip like Ceasars Palace,Mirage,etc.then park in the Casino Royale hotel parking lot since its right in the center of the strip and its FREE parking!
I'm going to make a mistake number 19: going in the summer. But I'm from Finland and few years ago we had a massive rainstorm on June and temperature was +4 degrees celsius. So I'm happy to go some place warm. Of course we have some warm temperatures but it's called a sauna.
Hubby and I went to LA and Vegas last January. I stumbled upon your channel as I was looking for Vegas and LA videos. They were wonderful and really helpful. Very informative.
So did we. I did forget about the tip that there's a difference enterance for them than taxis . I remembered on the 2nd day when I needed a ride and had to cancel it because I wasn't at the right pick up area. The night before we stayed at Circus Circus, the taxi and share ride pick up was all at the same entrance. I also agree that all of the Lyft drivers were very friendly. I enjoyed talking to them, and learning about them and the city.
I'm travelling back to vegas in September for a holiday with my husband, I've been before but but he hasn't. Are ubers and lyfts safe to use? We don't really have them where I live, all taxis are legitimate where I am so unsure of how safe they are?
Thanks a ton for the advice to check rooms rates, saved me $70 today! Great videos too man, chill vibe and unique perspective. Hawaii ones helpful as well...
I've always stayed at the Stratosphere! It's a really great hotel and I LOVE going to the top and seeing the view of the Strip and riding the rides! It has excellent food and shopping as well. Underneath, it's like an entire mall - it's HUGE! Also, if you want some inexpensive food, it's within walking distance to Denny's. As for transportation to the southern/central part of the strip, just buy a 3-day or 7-day monorail pass. Yes, you still have to walk a little bit to get to the monorail, which can be a downside on your way home for the night, but honestly, it's not that bad and you save a ton of money. The full price for the Stratosphere every time I've gone (summer and right after Christmas) was around $80 a night (including the resort fee and taxes). If you go in a group, you can even split the cost. If you don't want to walk to the monorail, you can always get an uber or taxi for the short drive to the monorail.
I lived in Vegas as a kid in the 70s. My dad managed The Castaways across from the Sands on the strip. Both are gone. Last time I was in LAS was 15 yrs ago. Wow it's really changed since.
#18 I don't think the wave pools are packed now, or at least they should not be, but I agree with you I wouldn't go in one of those crowded pools for all the tea in China. I wouldn't even stick my foot in LOL.
#30 is right on point 👍 I would also say that #31 would be using the ATM on the strip esp. at any of the casinos. I see they jacked up the fees to over $10 a pop. OUCH!
Mistake: Being afraid to try “normal” food places with normal prices outside of the hotel food courts. Some days you get used to thinking that $25 for Coffee and a Doughnut is reasonable and you have to smack yourself in the face and go to Starbucks or even McD’s as an antidote.
Related to the alcohol one: make sure you are drinking enough water because, if you are slightly dehydrated, even a relatively small amount of alcohol can hit you hard. An easy solution, go to a drug store outside the casino and get water for the room (the easiest guideline on how much is to factor around a six pack of water per person per 5 days).
Everyone loves the main restaurant in Paris (the hotel, not the city), but there's another one deeper inside the hotel and has outstanding food, and it's almost half price if you get in before 4pm.

Im going on a school day so my pool might noy be packed or correct me
Went to Vegas in a 60k BMW came home home in a 200k greyhound bus!! Class comment
Always keep an eye on your pockets/bags if you're watching the Bellagio fountains. Everyone's watching the show, most people are filming on their phones and it's a pickpocket's paradise.

Watching this from my hotel in Vegas after walking 10 miles yesterday up and down the strip... good thing we had flat shoes on!
I just added it up, according to my apple watch I did 110,000 steps in my four days in vegas. You need to, to burn off all that food.
That's alot of walking!
Wow!

If anyone's interested, it's the Desert Rose Resorts located right behind Hooters, the only complaint, there is a smell just before you get to Hooters other than that a great place to stay.You can take a cab to get where you want to go, just be careful and don't tell the cab driver too much personal information such as how long you going to be in Vegas and where you're from, some of them will use that against you to get more money. In conclusion, if you pay attention to his videos you will find them very informative.
Just got back to michigan yesterday from Vegas and yes it was super windy and cold ! Luckily my wife brought her winter jacket as it was 45 degrees at night in Feb.
Good good :)
I just went two days ago (April) and it wasn't hot at all! It's a really nice time to go because it's not hot or cold!! Btw im your viewer from Mexico ❤️
#6 I did it one day/night. I walked all the way from Downtown to New York, New York I believe it was. I made many stops along the way too so I could see the interiors of many properties. It was FUN to me and great exercise.
So far, I've seen the Yellow Production videos for Waikiki, Vegas, and D.C. Very informative for first time travelers to a new destination. I'll definitely check out more videos as this guy seems to know his stuff.
Thanks Robbie!
Always entertaining and informative Chris. You have the best tips in Vegas.
Thanks Vegas A-List!
Man I really loved this video!! All 15 minutes are filled with Good Content!! I love seeing all the cool places you know about in Vegas 🤠 I always learn something new and look forward to going to next time I go to Vegas. Oh and MY TIP #1 BRING YOUR OWN WEED!!!! GRAM OF REGGIE START AT $20. 😂 just like Alcohol, Weed is expensive but it is a little too expensive. Prices are quadrupled 🥶
Thanks Catalyst!
Thanks for making these videos! You have laid out the info so clearly, it helps so much for a first time visitor!
LMAO. My first time in Vegas, I drank so much the 1st day that my entire 2nd day was just a recovery day. Didnt even rally to make it out the next night. Lesson learned
Great video. I bet within a few months this will be one of your top 5 most viewed. I totally agree about taking the bus down the strip. I once took a bus because I was in a hurry and it took an hour when I could have just walked to where I was going in 30 minutes or so.
Thanks Jake! :)
Great tips. I stay in a Condo next to Bellagio with a full kitchen and laundry and saved a fortune in food and drinks and just ate out for dinner only, CVS and Walgreens are a godsend. I only walk down the strip when one side is in shade, couldn’t take the bus anyway as it was totally packed. Yes, even walking around two or three casinos in a row is exhausting unless you’re in your 20s!
I do appreciate the time and effort you put into your videos. Love your attitude and execution!
Thanks Mizkong!
Actually, I found that Fremont is A LOT sketchier as oppose to staying on the trip. I feel a lot safer on the strip. It’s like a panhandlers paradise there.
Couldn't wait to get out of there when I was in Vegas!!
I think everyone should see Fremont street at night once, then get on a cab and get the hell outta there, lol.
Which is exactly what I did
@Jimmy Johnson felt like I was in the land that time forgot. I really didn't like it much.
It's dodgy! Far too busy and full of weirdos. We didn't hang about for long on fremont street. Much quieter during the day and felt much safer
this channel is so adorable and informative, i just love it. your voice is so cute!
The absolute best thing I did was to learn how to get from Mandalay to The Mirage with only actually walking about half the time. Just gotta learn where those trams are.
I enjoy your videos and great tips re: Vegas which helped me prepare for my trip last month 😁 Keep up the good work Chris ..... after the self isolation period of course 😉
I always buy my water at CVS and Walgreens. It’s a lot cheaper that way. That’s a really good tip.
I have a question is there a walmart or target in Vegas? I usually go to walmarts to buy sodas and waters when I go on vacations but I never heard of a walmart in vegas
Beer as well! Half the price.
Yup, me and my gf would fill up my camelbak about halfway with ice, then go to Walgreens get about 6 waters a day and just walk the strip with that
Derrick Klone Hi Derrick. Yes they probably did dig the water bottles out of the trash. And they refilled them with tap water. It’s just best to go to to CVS or Walgreens. It’s a lot more safe and sanitary. Sure it’s a little bit more expensive. But I’d rather spend a little bit more money on a water bottle that’s fresh and sealed then one that’s been used and is dirty.
@@damienshyboy yes, there are many.
This guy says he has 1000 videos or more
if so !!!! this is one of the best ones !!!!
Just came back from Vegas today and we couldn’t find a good hotel,so we had to stay in circus circus but in the end the room wasn’t bad at all.Subbed!!
Welcome to Yellow Productions Jason! :)
Jason Garcia omg the filthiest grossest disgusting place on the strip!!! If you had a black light and turned it on...YOU WOULD RUN!!!
Linda Buck yea I agree lol😹
buddy, i have to say. as a foreigner because of the pandemic, we couldn't travel at all. And watching your videos makes me feel like im back in vegas. great job bro keep it up
Double thanks Lin
My friend and I recently avoided hotel drama by staying at an Airbnb right off the strip on Koval. Next time I'd like to try a hotel tho. Also, it was indeed pretty annoying finding food after 10pm, so prepare well for that. Go to the ABC store for food and essential for cheap
Honestly, I even miss the mistakes in those good of’ days of Vegas. Hopefully, the good times will be here again, soon. A great video, as always.
Hilarious and informative. A pleasure watching, especially when there are so many people doing reviews.
Hi from Argentina! I just came back from a 1 week easter trip to Vegas, and your videos helped me a lot. Thank you very very much!
Regarding point nº22, after viewing Love and One at 21:30, you would be exiting at almoust 23:00 so all the good restaurants are close, but you should go to GRAND LUX CAFE at the Venetian, best place ever to eat in Vegas, not expensive and open 24 hours!
Grand Lux Cafe is pretty good!
Drinking too much. OMG! This is a mistake I made all the time back in my younger days. I really did miss out a lot of what Vegas had to offer because I would spend the following morning battling a hang over from hell and then all of the previous night was just a haze in my memories. Don't do that anymore. I still drink, but not like that. I pace myself and there are days in Vegas where I don't drink at all. There is so much to enjoy there if you just remain sober. :)
That sounds familiar!!
I have been to Vegas many times.....these mistakes are spot on (except, I always go in the summer...I love the heat). Great video!
Skip the Sunday night drive back to LA, just take the short 50 minute flight on Southwest!
its only a half hour not 50 minutes.
Lax sucks not worth it
Erick Herrera Burbank, Santa Ana, Ontario, Long Beach other options
Might as well drive already going thru the hassle of a airport
The drive is the best part!
This is really good! I lived in Las Vegas for 15 years and agree with this...
time share should be #1! I stupidly PAID to attend the timeshare the restaurant was picked AND was limited to a cheap spaghetti menu! Was so mad!! thanks PLANET Hollywood!
Next time try Laughlin, Nevada, 90 miles south of Vegas, on the Colorado River. That’s the place to have fun.
Jet ski businesses are beginning to buy up all the cheap commercial property straight across the river from Harrah’s casino in Old Bullhead City, AZ. The area that you are showing on the left side (north side) of the park is exactly where City of Bullhead is developing a commercial boat ramp. Some places you can live in while having a great investment at the same time because it’s zoned for commercial but some places are grandfathered in already so they can’t make you move. Plus you are walking distance to the Colorado River and have a great view of the casinos on the opposite side of the river.
When I went in February, the hotel I stayed at changed my room to a much nicer one. Ended up in a suite at the Flamingo that overlooked the strip.
Awesome tips!!! I remember going in December years ago, boarded the plane in 75 degree Cali and landing in 40 degree with an even colder wind chill Vegas in a short summer dress and regretting my life choices hahaha
Probably looking good too
When taking a Urber make sure it's a urber. Ask them who they are waiting for, if they say your name make sure they are who they say they are. ID would be okay to ask. Someone almost died from getting into a car and asking if they were waiting for them. Never say your name. Always ask for ID and look to see a logo of on the car.
I always check the plate and see if it matches what I have on the app
Living in Phoenix, I have no issues with the heat. Just need a cold drink and some shade and you are set. Walking down the strip would actually allow people to burn off some of that food. Aside from that I don't have an issue with the recommendations.
Omg lol the girls on the side of the van aren't the ones that come to ur room. I busted out laughing
Metro Police are very aggressive about prostitution activities.
@@stevensedlis3901 vegas has alot of its appeal to people who want to party, then you get there and if you do anything other than drink and gamble (lame) they put you in a vegas jail.
Those two girls on the van have literally been there since 2007. You would think that they would retire by now lol.
@@heatherfeather9951 Im a vegas local and can confirm ive seen them there since around that time as well LMAO !!
Just got back from 2nd trip to Vegas. Using Lyft was the biggest money saver on my last trip. Use whatever app that you can get discounts on! Another money saver is that don’t buy drinks at the bars while in casinos, play some games and use the cocktail waitress to slice that expense right up
Two weeks and I'll be there. It's going to be my third time going but I still need this video😂😂😂
Have fun!
Prices on shows: You can also go to the box office for most of the older shows in the day when they’re not busy and ask if they can give you any good deals or discounts. This works very well if you’re watching a weekday show. When I was staying at NYNY a few years ago I got comped a companion ticket a few years ago for a weekday Zumanity show just by asking if there were any better deals available than what I had seen online.
Thanks for the tip!
I’ll be there in 2 days and can’t wait to have some time off in sin city! Thank you for the great video!
Have fun Anna!
Thank you for the video.
Great Sunscreen advice. 🌞 ☀️
200k greyhound 🤣. Awesome video! great info.
One of my favorite Vegas jokes! :)
Simply the best guides about Vegas on UA-cam! I predict this video is gonna get a lots of views....
Thanks Mike! It's doing pretty good so far :)
A few years ago we did the walk to the Rio bit. Realized it was a huge mistake about halfway across the bridge. Everything looks so close but came to discover the buildings are huge. That is when and where we started using Uber.
We have been to Vegas numerous times I agree with most of your video besides a few. Some mistakes are what makes me go over and over
When you play blackjack or roulette, play on the tables with the best odds.
Blackjack: Play 3 to 2 payouts. Do NOT play 6 to 5 payouts.
Roulette: Play single zero if you can find one. I know The Mirage has one. Try to avoid double zero. And now they are starting to put in TRIPLE zero games in casinos. Avoid them at all costs!
Just look at the placard at the table B-4 you sit down! I'm guilty of NOT doing that.
Shame on me.
@@ddd228 I work in a casino. I see people play on 6/5 blackjack and triple zero roulette all day long.
@@sportsbookps5544 Those people do not care what the odds are. Lemmings to the slaughter.They help the stock holders. I will not and they paid for parking!
Too many 6-5 payouts anymore. Also watch out for not letting you double down on 8 or 9.
@@brucekingfield8439 I WANT INSURANCE!!!!!!
For number seven,if you drove to vegas then definitely use your car.There are some places you can park for free and from there on,walk around those areas.If you want to go to the Whynn hotel or anywhere around that hotel,theres a free parking lot for the fashion show mall you can park at.If you want to go to the M&M store or see anything theres around that area,then park in an area thats its around their CVS(this one will cost you around 10 bucks but its worth it).Lastly,if you want to see everything around the center of the strip like Ceasars Palace,Mirage,etc.then park in the Casino Royale hotel parking lot since its right in the center of the strip and its FREE parking!
I think that T.I. has free parking,also.
I got married in Vegas and it was a lovely time (although everything was planned and plenty of people were invited)
Hi thank you for all the videos it helps me and my partner out because we will be going to Las Vegas in June for the first time 👍 🇺🇸🇬🇧
Thanks Jackie!
Yellow Productions no problem Chris looking forward to the next video 👍🏻
Yellow Productions PS we will try our best not to drink to much lol
Good plan!
I'm going to make a mistake number 19: going in the summer. But I'm from Finland and few years ago we had a massive rainstorm on June and temperature was +4 degrees celsius. So I'm happy to go some place warm. Of course we have some warm temperatures but it's called a sauna.
Jack of Helsinki It's not a mistake. Rooms are very cheap when it's hot, and it makes the pool better
Hubby and I went to LA and Vegas last January. I stumbled upon your channel as I was looking for Vegas and LA videos. They were wonderful and really helpful. Very informative.
Thanks Eden!
We used Lyft everywhere, was a few dollars each time and the drivers were great
So did we. I did forget about the tip that there's a difference enterance for them than taxis . I remembered on the 2nd day when I needed a ride and had to cancel it because I wasn't at the right pick up area. The night before we stayed at Circus Circus, the taxi and share ride pick up was all at the same entrance.
I also agree that all of the Lyft drivers were very friendly. I enjoyed talking to them, and learning about them and the city.
I'm travelling back to vegas in September for a holiday with my husband, I've been before but but he hasn't. Are ubers and lyfts safe to use? We don't really have them where I live, all taxis are legitimate where I am so unsure of how safe they are?
Great videos as always!!! Was just there a month ago. Every time I leave, I always wanna go back!
Thanks Alex!
Thanks a ton for the advice to check rooms rates, saved me $70 today! Great videos too man, chill vibe and unique perspective. Hawaii ones helpful as well...
Nice!
Really good advice. Listen to this guy. He speaks the truth.
Perfect timing, I'm going tomorrow! Thanks for the tips
I've always stayed at the Stratosphere! It's a really great hotel and I LOVE going to the top and seeing the view of the Strip and riding the rides! It has excellent food and shopping as well. Underneath, it's like an entire mall - it's HUGE! Also, if you want some inexpensive food, it's within walking distance to Denny's. As for transportation to the southern/central part of the strip, just buy a 3-day or 7-day monorail pass. Yes, you still have to walk a little bit to get to the monorail, which can be a downside on your way home for the night, but honestly, it's not that bad and you save a ton of money. The full price for the Stratosphere every time I've gone (summer and right after Christmas) was around $80 a night (including the resort fee and taxes). If you go in a group, you can even split the cost. If you don't want to walk to the monorail, you can always get an uber or taxi for the short drive to the monorail.
This is all very good advice! My last trip was in June a couple of years ago and there was a heat wave.
I lived in Vegas as a kid in the 70s. My dad managed The Castaways across from the Sands on the strip. Both are gone. Last time I was in LAS was 15 yrs ago. Wow it's really changed since.
Take monorail to the Sahara and it's about a 10 min walk to stratosphere. Can cut through the casino to avoid walking outside the entire way.
Another great video like always and so informative!
Thanks Mili!
#28 . . . Atlantic City equivalent - driving back to Philadelphia . . . on a Sunday afternoon/evening !
#18 I don't think the wave pools are packed now, or at least they should not be, but I agree with you I wouldn't go in one of those crowded pools for all the tea in China. I wouldn't even stick my foot in LOL.
Other than potentially wading in piss it’s not too bad
#30 is right on point 👍 I would also say that #31 would be using the ATM on the strip esp. at any of the casinos. I see they jacked up the fees to over $10 a pop. OUCH!
ATMS are soo expensive on the strip!
Very informative videos ! Thank u so much! I’m flying to Vegas from New York tomorrow for the 3rd time 😝😝😝
My pleasure Lally!
Yellow Productions I love your videos so much! 💜😝😝😝
Awwwww. Thanks Lally!
Mistake: Being afraid to try “normal” food places with normal prices outside of the hotel food courts. Some days you get used to thinking that $25 for Coffee and a Doughnut is reasonable and you have to smack yourself in the face and go to Starbucks or even McD’s as an antidote.
Related to the alcohol one: make sure you are drinking enough water because, if you are slightly dehydrated, even a relatively small amount of alcohol can hit you hard. An easy solution, go to a drug store outside the casino and get water for the room (the easiest guideline on how much is to factor around a six pack of water per person per 5 days).
Good tip!
I walked from Mandalay Bay to Fremont Street and back again and it took 4 hours!
😮 holy moly you must be amazing! I could never walk that much!
elias taian I couldn’t feel my legs for a week after!
prove it
You must he the Bionic Woman. Lol
Lol at 14:02 you see the fear in your eyes for the end of the escalator. Great vid!
The best restaurant I've ever been to was herbs and rye in vegas. This place is open late and after midnight all steaks are 50% off
Everyone loves the main restaurant in Paris (the hotel, not the city), but there's another one deeper inside the hotel and has outstanding food, and it's almost half price if you get in before 4pm.
St8kout what's the name of this resto
