Overview

  • Mostly indoors to avoid heat. All the good stuff is inside.

    Hey everyone, I'm Jonathan. I love a good adventure and an ice cold beer. I developed this tour to showcase my favorite must-see spots on the Vegas Strip to those who don't want to waste time and money wondering around aimlessly not knowing where to go and spending $50 on a Pina Colada when right around the corner it could be $7. Places you should see/ know and not miss. Spots even the locals don't know or you might miss if venturing alone.

    Some are traditional iconic spots, views, photo spots & some are hidden bars, speakeasies, where the food and drink deals are, happy hours and lunch specials. How to do quality on a budget. This isn't the type of tour where I have a flag, 50 people wearing headsets while I lecture you for 3hrs. Have fun, drink, gamble. You're in Vegas aka Disney for adults. Save that for Rome. If anything is in my hand, it's a beer.

    Great for the first day of your trip so later you know where to go!

Activity itinerary

Palazzo Resort Casino

  • 15m
Happy hours, variety of food, stretch your money without breaking the bank, high-end shopping, fine art, rare bookstore, sunlit atrium, tranquil, historical gondola, waterfall, luxury without the crowds and doesn't smell like pot.

The Venetian Las Vegas

  • 20m
largest hotel in U.S and 2nd largest in world. speakeasies and hidden bars, hand-painted frescoes and replicas, Venetian Canals, Piazza San Marco, hand0painted sky ceilings, secluded view points and lobbies, chocolate tasting, more happy hours and food and drinks deals, any photo spots and half naked 20 yr-olds running around in the summer. Usually doesn't smell like pot.

Casino Royale

  • 5m
One of the last vintage and dive casinos left on the Strip. The food and drinks are some of the cheapest and a great spot for to-go drink. Cheap slots and atm machines along with the largest jackpot. The most unsavory characters linger here in the morning. Makes for great people watching.

The Piano Bar at Harrah's (Pass by)

Pass through one of the center-Strip’s most energetic live entertainment hubs. As we walk through this corridor, I’ll point out where to catch some of the best free live music on the boulevard—including legendary long-running lounge acts, dueling piano duels, and world-famous flair bartenders flipping bottles in an open-air street-party atmosphere. It's an awesome, high-energy spot to drop back into later in the afternoon or evening when you're looking for cheap drink specials and live classic rock or pop cover bands.

The LINQ Casino (Pass by)

Not much here except drunk 20 yr old kids causing mayhem on the weekend but there's a very secluded hidden 70's NYC themed bar which you'll see if you book the weekend tour.

O'Sheas Pub (Pass by)

Usually more people playing beer-pong at night than actually gambling but we'll say it's the smallest little Irish themed casino on the Strip and honestly, there's really nothing Irish about it besides the name and the green, and I guess some shamrocks and Guinness. Known for their Frozen Baileys which for me is like a Wendy's Frosty with Baileys. Definitely recommend on a hot day.

The LINQ Promenade (Pass by)

Use to be a grungy sketchy alley to a parking garage and now it's full of great food and drink spots, food and drink deals and happy hours, bowling alley with live music, comedy club, shops, a great frozen Pina Colada and the 2nd largest observation wheel in the world. Party area at night and usually smells like pot.

Flamingo Wildlife Habitat

  • 15m
Oldest casino on the Strip, by name at least. Built but a mobster from Brooklyn in 1946. Oddly there's a little animal habitat which they're all slowly dying off. Great food in here, party hotel by night. It's a blast back to the 90's which it's slowly losing. The garden is a great escape from Vegas. Also, rub the Buddha's belly for good luck then sanitize your hands 20 times.

The Vanderpump Las Vegas Hotel - A Caesars Rewards Destination (Pass by)

No reason to go in here. They got rid of their happy hour and installed even worse carpet than when it was Cromwell. We only go in for air conditioning in the summer.

Grand Bazaar Shops

  • 5m
Funnest area on the Strip hands down. Great food deals everywhere. Live music, happy hours and just a fun clientele. Shawarma, gourmet hotdogs, NY pizza, Karaoke bar with 242 shots, and another 241 drink spot with the funnest crowd and bartenders. Make the ball in the basketball hoop to get a free shot at the bar. The Grand Bazar is the center of all the action especially at night.

Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Garden

  • 15m
really one of the first luxury resorts and pretention at it's finest. It's best when the front desk is giving out free champagne and wine to keep everyone in the hour check0in line from losing their minds. We'll see a Guinness World record chocolate fountain and the conservatory with changing seasonal floral displays. This is a must-see. I'll also show you some great photo spots, view-points and where to watch the Bellagio Fountains without the crowds.

The Cosmopolitan Casino

  • 15m
A failed condo project turned into a resort. It's glitzy and glamoury, people tend to dress up more here at night. No bad food in this place and you might see some things you can't unsee when the pool party gets out. There are several hidden spots I have access to even when they're close that all my rip-off competitors either don't know about or can't/ don't take you into. If you don't like bars or to have a drink, well, that sucks.

The Shops At Crystals (Pass by)

White sterile walls and one of the most soulless pretentious spots on the Strip. If you have more money than you know what to do with, like, if you can afford a Tag or Richard Mille, this might be fore you. This is the future of Vegas Infront of our eyes. Oh, and a tree-house that's very phallic in shape.

Eataly

  • 5m
A bustling Italian market from Torino. This is real Italian, not American-Italian... except without the Italian prices. But's it's something you won't find on the rest of the Strip and it's inside the only non-smoking casino.

Casino at Caesars Palace (Pass by)

If I'm not going into a casino or hotel, it's mostly because many of them are "hotel and casino" and that's it. There's really nothing inside that's like "oh, you got to see this". I'm not here to waste your time. I'm cutting to the chase and showing you the good stuff you should see and known and not miss.
