Las Vegas Strip

The Las Vegas Strip is not just a street, it is a Vegas icon. The Vegas Strip is really the heart of Las Vegas and it is often what comes to mind when visitors think of Las Vegas.

The Las Vegas Strip is about 4 miles long on Las Vegas Blvd South and it historically referred to the section between Russel Road and Sahara Avenue, but now it extends south to the Welcome to Las Vegas Sign. Hotels just north of this area (Stratosphere Hotel) and just south (The Luxor) are often included as Strip Hotels.

Getting around the Las Vegas Strip is easy ! There are many pedestrian walkways over the strip connecting hotels and the Las Vegas Monorail runs just east of the Las Vegas Strip making various stops. Most hotels on the Las Vegas Strip offer free parking and valet parking. May visitors opt for cabs when traveling on the Vegas Strip as most fares are relatively inexpensive. Beware though, traffic gets pretty bad on the weekends on the Las Vegas Strip.
