Las Vegas free shuttles and trams and other transportation! Your information for getting around Vegas. There is lots of free transportation in this town, and you should know about it! Also if you have a rental car, and town is not too crowded, just take your car and roll into the Free parking lots at the major hotels. Between 11:00am and 7:00 pm, things can get pretty hectic on Las Vegas Boulevard - so try Paradise Road is a good alternative! We covered quite a few hotels that way recently in February, when it was cold and RAINING!
Travel from the airport is not expensive, you can share a van with others, and go from McCarran Airport to your hotel for a reasonable $3.00-$4.00 for strip hotels. Downtown hotels cost from $4.00 to $5.00. Just look for the shuttles outside the terminal building. Taxis from the airport cost somewhat more, of course, you pay for the convenience! By taxi, to most hotels on the Strip, be prepared to pay from $10.00 to $12.00, downtown, anywhere from $15.00-$18.00
The tram between the Bellagio and the Monte Carlo was shut down in February, thus the car jockeying. There is also a monorail that runs between Bally's and the MGM Grand, as well as one that goes between Excalibur and Mandalay Bay (the last hotel on the Strip), however just because the Luxor is in between, you can't get off at the Luxor when you're going south to Mandalay Bay, you can only get off at the Luxor when you're going back to Excalibur! Well you can't complain, because it is free! Watch for "tram" or "monorail" signs in the hotels...also Check Map & Schedule for Las Vegas Monorail or Try Las Vegas Strip Trolley
