Download or read book The Big Book of Things to Do on the Las Vegas Strip written by Matt Lashley and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-02-23 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Download or read book 22 Things to Do on the Las Vegas Strip for 25 and Under written by Matt Lashley and published by . This book was released on 2019-08-08 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Las Vegas Strip is expensive. And since most people visiting the Strip have a limited budget, it is important to make your money stretch as far as it can. This is the reason for this book: to point out all of the things you can do on the Strip that are affordable. I have defined affordable as an activity that costs $25 or less. Above $25, there seems to be a jump to the low 30 dollar amount, and then ramping up to price tags that are outside of an average person's bankroll. There are many things you can do on the Strip for free, but I have already written extensively on the topic in my book Free Things To Do on the Las Vegas Strip: A Self-Guided Tour. This book serves as a companion guide, but it stands alone as a good guide for low-cost fun. There is also a bonus section: Eating for under $10If you're as old as I ma, you likely remember a time when you could eat cheap in Las Vegas. All the casinos wanted was your gambling dollars, and they would entice you with many attractive discounts. All that is gone. Today, they are trying to make money on everything. Most casinos are now charging for parking! Las Vegas doesn't want you to eat for under $10, but I have made it my mission to go up and down the Strip looking for the few possibilities that still exist. Use this section to plan a few of your meals in advance to save some of your cash for other things.

Book excerpt: When people think of Las Vegas, they are usually thinking about the Strip, but there is a whole other Las Vegas that can be experienced. This is called Downtown Las Vegas, or as it is sometimes called, old Las Vegas. Much of Downtown Las Vegas isn't so old anymore. Some of the buildings have been torn down, The Las Vegas Club is one example. Other buildings have been completely renovated, both inside and out. Some of these hotels may have new names you are not familiar with. In addition, there are new attractions that you may not know about. There has been a big effort by both the city and the casinos to develop the area, creating new and exciting attractions, and all of this was done while preserving the spirit of the Las Vegas of the past. Some of what you find here no longer exists on the Strip. This book tells you about all of the highlights in and around Downtown Las Vegas. You will learn about the new free Loop Shuttle that takes you around an outer loop to make it easy to get around. This shuttle service is free, and gives you an opportunity to see a lot more of Downtown Las Vegas while you are there. The heart of Downtown Las Vegas is Fremont Street, and it has become quite a spectacle. There is a lot to see by walking casually down this pedestrian only street. Many of the attractions in and around Downtown Las Vegas cost money, but there are many free things to do as well. All of the major things to do for free are covered. The highlights of the most unusual and popular places to eat are discussed. Generally speaking, the cost of everything is lower in Downtown Las Vegas than on the Strip, so your money will go further. You may choose to stay at a downtown hotel while in Las Vegas, but if you are staying on the Strip, it is easy to get here by car. And if you don't have transportation, this book explains exactly how to get there by bus. Things To Do In Downtown Las Vegas describes exactly what each attraction is and exactly where it is located. Hours of operation and admission prices are included when applicable. Web sites are also listed, so readers can find the latest information.

Download or read book My Week at the Blue Angel written by Matthew O'Brien and published by Huntington Press Inc. This book was released on 2011-03 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A savage journey into the heart of Hunter S. Thompson's Las Vegas with the Good Doctor as tour guide. A Lord-of-the-Rings-like adventure in the city's underground flood channels. A seven-day stay at a seedy motel on East Fremont Street. The stories in My Week at the Blue Angel aren't about Steve Wynn, Cirque du Soleil, or how to play poker, and they aren't set in Caesars Palace, XS Nightclub, or a 2,000-seat showroom. They're about prostitutes, ex-cons, and the homeless, and they're set under Caesars Palace and in trailer parks and weekly motels. In this creative nonfiction collection, Matthew O'Brien--author of Beneath the Neon: Life and Death in the Tunnels of Las Vegas--and veteran photographer Bill Hughes show a side of the city rarely seen. A side beyond the neon lights, themed facades, and motel-room doors. A side beyond the barbwire fences, No Trespassing signs, and midnight shadows.

Book excerpt: Las Vegas can feel huge and overwhelming, but there's way more to do than to head to the casinos. Read ahead for our picks for the best things to see & do on the Las Vegas Strip. Las Vegas is unique in so many ways. One of them is that its history, which is short but intense, can be told through the birth and demise of the resorts that dot the Strip, the rise and fall of its casino industry titans. This brief history of the Las Vegas Strip presents every casino hotel built along Las Vegas Boulevard South, the most celebrated and most visited stretch of asphalt on Earth, starting in 1941 with the El Rancho Vegas
Download or read book Dark Days Bright Nights written by Matthew O'Brien and published by Central Recovery Press. This book was released on 2020-11-17 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A vivid and enlightening oral account of homelessness in the Las Vegas storm drains and the hard work of re-entering mainstream society. Are you aware that hundreds of people live underground in the flood channels of Las Vegas? Few people were until Matthew O'Brien grabbed a flashlight, tape recorder, and expandable baton for protection and explored the storm-drain system in depth. This research resulted in his landmark book Beneath the Neon. Now the drains have been covered by CNN, Fox News, NPR, Dr. Phil, the New York Times, the BBC, Al Jazeera, and many other media outlets. They have even found their way on to popular TV shows, including CSI, Criminal Minds, and into mainstream movies. But the fact that several of these drug- and gambling-addicted tunnel dwellers have clawed their way out of the drains and turned around their lives has received far less attention. Dark Days, Bright Nights shares their harrowing stories and provides a unique perspective on one of America's most fascinating cities. It also paints a larger picture of homelessness and recovery in America. These stories are the happy (though not Hollywood) ending to the infamous tunnel tale. The narrative is complemented by bios and stark, black-and-white images of the survivors, putting a scarred, knowing face to the unblinkingly honest accounts.

You can't gamble every minute of the day and night when you're in Las Vegas. Of course, there are plenty of shows you can see. Of course, there are usually a limited number of them you can because like most people, you come to Las Vegas on a budget.

Not only are these attractions free, but they can be easily accessed by those arriving in Las Vegas without any transportation.

Naturally, they want you to gamble, this is their top source of revenue. But they also want you to spend money on shows and restaurants. In years past, this was more of a way to get people to come to Vegas and gamble, but today it is a part of their revenue. And they're trying to expand their sources of revenue wherever they can. Hotels are even charging people for parking now. But if you know what there is to do for free, you can see Las Vegas on a budget.
