If you are driving to Vegas and coming from the east, try to stop at Moab, Utah and see the Arches and Canyonlands National Parks, they are both spectacular and for my money better than the Grand Canyon.

Does anyone know if there are shuttles from the airport to any of the hotels near the MGM or at the MGM? Trying to figure out if I have to rent a car.

From the website's FAQ section...

 

Q. How do I get from the airport to MGM Grand?

A.For your convenience, MGM Grand offers room registration at McCarran Airport!

 

Our Airport Registration Desk is located in the south baggage claim area, near the bottom of the escalators descending from the C and D gates, next to carousel # 1 and 2. Shuttle service is available from 9:00am - 11:00pm. Porterage service is available 9:00am - 5:00pm Only. The rates are:

 

$8.00 One-Way (per person)

$15.00 Round Trip (per person)

 

One-Way Porterage includes luggage delivery to your room. (Available daily 9a-5p Only)

Taxis can be found outside the baggage claim area. The approximate cost for one-way taxi is $15 for up to 5 people

 

MGM is pretty close to the airport. A taxi is usually no problem.

There are taxi's, shuttles, you name it! No need for a car, ever, in Vegas (unless you are going to visit the mountains or desert).

And once you get there, the monorail can take you anywhere on the strip you want to go. It's a very cool system.

I wonder if one can still drink alcholic beverages on the Monorail?

Awesome! Thanks so much for the info. I did think it would be stupid to rent a car with everything on the strip in walking distance, I just wasn't sure how far it was from the airport to the hotel. Now I do http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif

Yeah, the monorail makes it a lot easier to get around. You have to walk through the casinos at each station to get to the street, but it's clean, safe and always on time.

 

We stayed at MGM last time, and everything was real easy that way. Just had to stumble to the elevator when it was all over.
