Planning your trip to Las Vegas

Best time to visit

Spring and autumn are the most comfortable for walking. Summer daytime heat can be intense and dangerous, so plan indoor time midday. Nights can be cool in winter.

How many days you need

Three days covers the main resorts, a show and a day trip to a nearby canyon or dam. Longer stays suit those who want to explore beyond the Strip.

Getting around

Distances on the Strip look short but are long on foot, especially in the heat. A monorail, buses and rideshares link the main areas, and a rental car is only necessary for trips out of town.

What to skip

Compare total prices, not just the room rate, since many hotels add a daily resort fee. Check what that fee includes before you book.
