Frequently Asked Questions |
What about the Monorail? The city bus? The shuttles?
The main Las Vegas Monorail is quite "safe" to use and
travels on the east side of the Las Vegas Strip. Ticketing is very
similar to that used on most subways and elevated systems. You buy
a single or multi-ride ticket at a machine and insert it into the
slot at an entrance turnstyle.
For our activities located in venues near the Monorail, the
proper Monorail stop will be noted on our final detailed schedule.
Motorized tramway systems run between the Bellagio, City Center,
and Park MGM, and also between the Excalibur, Luxor, and
Mandalay Bay on the west side of the Strip. These are free and
there are no formalities when boarding or riding. A smaller free
tramway runs between the Mirage and Treasure Island.
Some casinos and other firms operate free shuttles between various
properties. Some are free with
no formalities, while some others require proof of residency such
as a room key or a players club card. Some of these are reported to
be "safe" but circumstances vary between the various
shuttle services.
The newer double-decker "Deuce" bus on the Strip and other
major bus routes has been ridden by our attendees with no major
issues reported, but in general, the city bus is only suggested for
those with a high confidence level and significant public exposure
experience.
