Take The Deuce Las Vegas Bus Tour

Take a Las Vegas bus tour of the Las Vegas Strip casino hotels on the cheap. A Las Vegas bus service is certainly no way to get you and your foursome to one of Nevada's great golf courses on your next golf vacation.

But if you are looking for an inexpensive way to hit all of the hotel casinos on the Strip, then I would recommend the double-deck bus called The Deuce over taxis and the monorail.

On our last trip to Sin City we had some free time and wanted to visit the Stardust Hotel and Casino on its last day of operation. After talking to a blackjack dealer at the Tropicana, we decided to take a Las Vegas bus to tour some of our favorite casinos and spots on the Strip.

We began our trip just outside of the MGM Grand at one of The Deuce's many bus stops (there is one on almost every corner in front of many casinos). At each bus stop you will see a Las Vegas bus schedule and route map.

Fares for adults are $2 for one ride but we chose a 24-hour pass which was only $5 and allowed us to ride all day for next to nothing.

After taking our seats on the upper deck of the double-deck Las Vegas bus where we could get a great view of the hotel casinos along the Strip, we rode down to the Stardust and enjoyed a trip through memory lane.

Later we boarded The Deuce again heading north up Las Vegas Boulevard and hit the Wynn Las Vegas, the Venetian, Caesars Palace, the Bellagio and the Excalibur before returning to the Tropicana.

The Las Vegas bus service was great. The drivers were animated, friendly and helpful and we never waited more than a few minutes for each one to arrive. Imagine what the cost would have been to hit all of those casinos in a taxi.

So next time you are enjoying a golf vacation in Las Vegas and want to spend a day or evening on the Strip hitting multiple casinos, give a Las Vegas bus tour on The Deuce a good, hard look.
