Las Vegas FAQ
Weather, documents, where to stay and desert day trips, explained plainly.
When is the best time to visit Las Vegas?
Spring (March to May) and fall (October and November), with mild days and cool nights. In summer, desert heat often tops 104 °F (40 °C), so outdoor trips start early. Winter highs hover around 57 °F (14 °C) and nights can dip below freezing; pack a jacket.
What documents do I need if I'm traveling from Mexico?
A valid Mexican passport and a US visitor visa (B1/B2, or the Border Crossing Card, which is also a visa). Mexican citizens can't use ESTA. If you arrive by air, your I-94 entry record is created electronically; if you cross by land and drive to Las Vegas, you must get an I-94 at the port of entry.
Which airport do I fly into, and how far is it from the Strip?
Harry Reid International Airport (LAS), about 2 miles from the south end of the Strip. A taxi or rideshare reaches most hotels in 10 to 20 minutes, depending on traffic and how far north your hotel is. Shared shuttles and rental cars are also available.
Where should I stay?
The Strip (Las Vegas Boulevard) is where the big casino resorts are; Center Strip puts you steps from the Bellagio fountains, Caesars Palace and the Sphere. Downtown, around Fremont Street, is cheaper with a retro feel. For something quieter, there are resorts in Summerlin and Henderson, a short drive away.
What is the resort fee hotels charge?
Most Strip hotels add a daily resort fee that covers amenities such as Wi-Fi and pools. It is often paid at the hotel and isn't always included in the room rate, so check your hotel's price breakdown and conditions before paying.
What is there to do besides the casinos?
Catch a residency or circus show, step inside the Sphere next to the Venetian, walk under the Fremont Street canopy, watch the Bellagio fountains at night and ride the High Roller. By day, Red Rock Canyon is about 30 minutes away and Valley of Fire about an hour.
What day trips can I take from Las Vegas?
Hoover Dam is about 45 minutes away, and raft trips through the Colorado River's Black Canyon leave from below it. The Grand Canyon West Rim, with the Skywalk, is about two and a half hours away, and the South Rim about four and a half hours by car. Boulder City and Laughlin make easy desert stops.
How many days do I need?
Three or four nights is enough to explore the Strip, see a show or two and take a trip to Hoover Dam or Red Rock Canyon. If you want to fit in the Grand Canyon without rushing, add one or two days.
Can kids come? Are there age rules?
Yes: many resorts have pools, aquariums and family attractions. But you must be 21 or older to gamble, enter clubs or drink alcohol, and minors can't linger on casino gaming floors. Carry official ID, since you may be asked for it.
How will I receive my package confirmation?
Once you complete your purchase, the confirmation arrives by email. Change and cancellation conditions depend on each fare and hotel and are shown before you pay.
