Where the Spots Are: Las Vegas Strip Walking Tour

Overview

Mostly Indoors!

Great for beginning of your trip so later you know where to go!

After months of exploration, I've cut out the guesswork and put together a comprehensive small-group walking tour of some of the must-see spots and hidden gems of the Vegas Strip that you'd might miss if venturing alone. Spots even locals don't know!

It's a lot - from best view points of the Bellagio fountains and the Vegas Strip, to the world's largest chocolate fountain, fine art like Chihuly glass, a 21st Century tree house, rare bookstore from Pawn Stars to the Venice canal with singing gondoliers and hand painted murals in the largest hotel in the U.S!

We'll visit secluded gardens with exotic birds, fish, Flamingos, a bustling Italian market, three-story chandelier bar, where the good food/ drink happy hours deals are like cheap cocktails, beer, water and souvenirs! And my favorite hidden bars, rooftops & speakeasys!

Feel free to grab a drink on the tour, you are in Vegas
I also host a bar-crawl!

A little bit of everything - overview of Vegas and visit to some of the more iconic spots, there's always something new, sightseeing, must-see spots, history, hidden bars, food deals & happy hours, speakeasies, good views, photo spots. It's about experiencing Vegas and enjoying yourself
If you're in Vegas for a few days, these are the spots and gems you should see and not miss
I don't work for Viator or Tripadvisor. I'm self-employed
If you're going to be unsociable for 3 hours, or you're uncomfortably socially awkward, and you can't say more than two words, don't book - not for you
Tour is in English - I also speak bad English
You're in Vegas so there's a good chance someone on the tour will grab a drink (Usually me). If you have a problem with people drinking in Vegas - then this isn't for you
Afraid of bridges and escalators? They're everywhere
Not your typical history or museum walking tour. I won't be herding big groups. No flag, no microphone, no headsets, I'm not giving a history lecture for 2 hrs. Small-groups, more personal.

No fascist dictator supporters allowed.

What To Expect

Las Vegas

This list changes often. This depends on: on events, what's open and closed, there's always new things, changes based on guests interests - i.e. If you want more of a bar-crawl experience, let me know!

Palazzo Resort Casino

Starting at one of the most grand and opulent lobbies in Vegas: we'll walk through a low-key, tranquil, Italian marbled palace-like resort subtly filled with acrylic birds above the lights, and a bronze wishing tree. Well pass by a 125+ year old original gondola built for weddings, Laura Kimpton's 12ft tall and 36 ft wide steel Love sign and a shopping center filled with happy hours, food and drink deals in a varying degree of restaurant themes such as a British Pub w/ darts and a view of the Strip, a Brazilian, Peruvian & Japanese restaurant bar in an Orange forest and more. You'll also pass by Vegas's largest poker room and a vintage style rare book-shop from the TV show Pawn Stars. It's luxury without the crowds and where the sugar daddy's lurk. Ladies, take note.

Best Western Plus Casino Royale–Center Strip

I love Casino Royale! It's not on anyone's "must-visit" radar... unless you must have a little taste of vintage Vegas or a piece of Fremont Street on the Strip! Built in 1970's and it smells like it. This joint looks like something out of your favorite Vegas mafia movie - dark, low-ceiling, smokey. Ot has: cheap slots (and only slots), cheap food like 24hr Denny's which is also the country's highest grossing, 24hr White Castle, three dollar hotdogs and better yet, three dollar beer bottles, five dollar drafts and cheap drinks all-day everyday! And a three dollar atm machine, cheapest on the Strip! They also have a ten million dollar jackpot!

The Piano Bar at Harrah's

Usually I'll walk through Harrah's if it's too hot or cold outside. The casinos run parallel to the Strip which make snice for casino hopping. Harrah's has a great pizza shop, a Gordon Ramsay Kitchen, and a very suspicious cake vending machine. It's a gamblers casino but they have the Piano Bar with Big Elvis and nightly dueling Pianos.

The LINQ Casino

The only thing that excites me in the Linq is the Dunkin Donuts and it's connected to Chayo which has $30 all-you-can-drink Mimosas in the morning. There's also Disco Show at night if you want a more interactive Vegas theater show. It's like Studio 54 on roller-skates.

O'Sheas Pub

The littlest casino on the Vegas Strip and there's really nothing Irish about this place other than the name, the color green and some shamrocks... and every other American inside drunk staking claims to their 10% Irish heritage and reminiscing about that one time they went to Ireland. Actually, they have an amazing frozen Bailey's so feel free to grab one as we pass by! (No, I'm broke, I'm not buying!) Anyways, usually there's more people in here playing beer pong than actually gambling but it's also the smallest casino on the Strip.

The Linq Promenade

Attached to the littlest and (and greenest) casino is the Linq Promenade. It has a zipline, largest Observation wheel in the "world" (in operation) and of course the ferris wheel has a bar in it because everything you can do here you can do with alcohol (thank you god!). But the Promenade is a street full of bars and restaurants and great happy-hours. It's like a Vegas version of Downtown Disney but with pot, cigarettes and alcohol - some sweat and shame in the summer and unfortunately some crying kids.

Flamingo Wildlife Habitat

Next we'll stumble through the Flamingo, the oldest hotel and casino on the Vegas Strip which just wonderfully got rid of my favorite bar (50 cent beer) in exchange for an out of place Ramsay Burger. The place is fairly pink, two vintage photos, and a little semi-wildlife animal habitat full of black swans (dead), pelicans (one left), and real Chilean Flamingos (down to 7 from 10) among many exotic birds (a couple different species of hummingbirds which are a joy to see but then again, we're in the middle of nowhere so anything that's real, colorful and not drunk is a joy to see), exotic ducks and massively mutant looking Koi fish (American sized). It's a hidden little oasis, in the middle of a casino, quiet, mellow, filled with palm tress and fake grass. Sadly, there's a Carlos & Charlies that does a morning drink special and a 2-4-1 happy hour but it's outside open-air patio overlooks the garden.

Casino at The Cromwell

This is now turning into a Vanderpump hotel but for now it still reminds me of the inside of one of those dine-in Pizza Huts. Best things here are their piano bar and noon-9pm $5 drink deal.

Grand Bazaar Shops

Love the Grand Bazaar Shops at Horseshoe because this where the deals are, great food, well-priced, big portions but quality - and most people walk right by them. There's made-to-order donuts, Nashville Hot chicken, stale pizza just how you like i in the morning, Mexican..ish..., Whalburgers, Mexican hotdogs, 2 mystery shots for $5 and my spot that does buy one get one drinks all day everyday with flare bartenders! A gift shop for you cheap tacky Vegas souvenirs, tall-boys (the beer not the men) and dollar waters! Also a rooftop bar with live music and cowboy accents all day.

Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Garden

A Vegas like "replica" of what Bellagio, Italy would look like if it got drunk and had to build itself on a budget - One of the first luxury resorts in Las Vegas that's famous for being in only one movie anyone cane remember, Ocean's 11, but lined with Italian marble, mosaic, high-end retail like not one but two Louie Vuitton's, Michelin chefs and 5-Star dinning options, screaming kids and crying babies and Dale Chihuly's 2,000 piece Fiori di Como designed after flower fields in Lake Como Italy. There's also a "garden" (conservatory) of thousand of real plants, trees, silk floral displays and seasonal designs that change, every season. It's open 24 hrs and doesn't smell like cigarettes, or pot, or sweat and shame. It's beautiful. We'll also view the world's "largest" chocolate fountain (technically second largest, maybe even third now). It's officially amazing but not as amazing as the Christmas store if your here during that time.

The Cosmopolitan Casino

If you like hidden sh*t and speakeasys, or 20 year olds running around drunk and half naked in the summer calling each other "bro" and b*tch" well then, this is the hotel for you! One of the newest hotels on the Strip, it's glitzy, glamoury, has has nothing but goo food and bars... and a 3-story bar encased in a chandelier of 2 million crystals (plastic) surrounding a 40 foot tour of liquor. Depending on timing, what's open, we'll visit or I'll point out a speakeasy behind a 1920's themed barbershop with nightly music, a tequila and nachos bar hiding behind an exit sign, a secret pizza shop and a restaurant behind a "pawn shop".

The Shops At Crystals

Bougie shopping center that's architecturally amazing, filled with designer shops, art gallery, and very energy efficient. This is where the future of Las Vegas begins. Ultra Luxury. Designed by an American-Polish architect who also did the World Trade Center in NYC - it's a 21st century park with a 55foot 3-story modern tree house as the center piece. There's also a Jason Aldean's outside with daily live music and patio views of the strip.
