6) TAXIS
Taxis are plentiful in Las Vegas. But unlike in other places, you cannot hail a taxi directly on the Las Vegas Strip. Safety laws required taxis to pick up passengers at a taxi stand or taxi line in airports, hotels, shopping malls, and attractions. Hotels have specific areas for taxi pick-up and drop-off, usually near the valet or main entrance.
7) Rideshare
Ridesharing, commonly associated with Uber and Lyft, is a convenient option to get around the Las Vegas valley. Like taxis, there are specific pick-up and drop-off locations. Please be respectful to our local drivers by following directions on where to ride and drop off.
8) Rental Cars
Rental car companies can be found at the airport, hotels, and standalone rental locations. The Harry Reid International Airport Rental Car Center houses 10 car rental companies in one location.
9) Limos
Limousines are fabulous and fancy to ride around the city. Arrive in style from the airport to your resort. Reservations are available at the airport and at the resorts.
10) Exclusive to convention and trade show attendees: The LAS VEGAS CONVENTION CENTER (LVCC) LOOP
The Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC) loop provides fast and accessible transportation for convention and trade show attendees across the convention center (North/Central/South/West halls) and Resorts World.
