Although most people find that they are able to enjoy almost everything that they could possibly need within their resort hotel in Las Vegas, if you want to get out of the hotel and explore the city or go further a field, then not to fear, as Las Vegas transportation is well organized and convenient, allowing you to get around with a minimum of fuss and enjoy your visit.

Because the airport is so close to the main resort areas, many hotels offer their own free Las Vegas transportation services that will pick you up when you arrive and drop you off when you leave. These shuttle services are normally comprehensive throughout the day and night, and as long as you have booked in advance, you can normally just turn up to the hotel representative at the airport and they will direct you to the bus.

If you prefer to travel on your own, then Las Vegas transportation companies offer a number of options. Cabs are available on demand from outside the airport arrivals hall, and these will take you straight to your hotel. The prices range up to around $20 for the hotels slightly further away up the strip, and you must remember to leave a tip. If you want something a little more special, then limousines are also available although they must generally be booked in advance. Larger groups can take advantage of mini bus services that are operated on a bookable system.

If you are planning to explore at your own pace, then organized Las Vegas transportation is generally of little use to you, and as a result you may want to arrange car hire. This will allow you to go where you want to when ever you want, and give you a great deal of freedom.

For people who need to get to their destination fast, or those who want to see the unique views of the city that are available from the air, getting around by the most glamorous form of Las Vegas transportation is a great idea. There are a number of different helicopter companies who offer tours and trips around the city and surrounding areas. Mostly these depart from the airport, but there are also helicopter pads on most of the bigger hotels where you can board at the most convenient location.
