Visiting Las Vegas can be overwhelming because there is so much to see and do. I live here in Vegas, so I have the luxury of visiting any casino or attraction any time I want to, but your time here in the city is limited, so too is your money. By knowing all the possibilities that Vegas has to offer, you can choose among your options to get the most out of your time and money while you're here. This is why I have written this book.
I want you to be able to thumb through everything in this book before you arrive, planning your trip before you leave, or maybe you can find time to read it on the plane, so you can put together a last minute plan of attack for your Vegas trip. Of course, many don't start making plans until they first step foot inside their hotel room. If you're one of these people, this is definitely the book for you.
Every attraction on the Strip is listed and described in detail, including some of my own opinions, which you can feel free to disagree with. The attractions are sorted alphabetically by hotel, or by the name of the attraction if it is outside a hotel property.
There are also special sections on low-cost transportation and low-cost meals. For the latter, you need to keep in mind that low cost is a relative term on the Strip.
There is also a special section on interesting places to eat. Though not necessarily cheap, like McDonald's, these restaurants are unusual, uncommon and fascinating, and may make your stay here more fun.
The last appendix is about a particular shopping center that, although on Las Vegas Blvd, is too far south to be considered the Strip. However, if you are going to do some shopping while in Las Vegas, you may want to make a visit here. The prices are often low for popular brand names.
