Here's everything you need to know before visiting Las Vegas! Get your notepads out.
So many people come out to Las Vegas excited as ever, as you should be, and I want to tell you all about everything people don't talk about. I want you to not have any questions or any doubts about how Las Vegas works. Some of this stuff may be uniform with visiting other cities, but instead of just assuming, I'm here to set the record straight. I'm going to give you all the information about how to get from the airport to your hotel, how to check in and what you need to know, a bit about getting around Las Vegas, and I'm even answering some of your own questions you guys had for me. I really hope this eliminates all your questions, be fully ready financially, and you can just concentrate on having fun in Las Vegas. Thank you for watching.

Being nice to anyone regardless if they work in Vegas or not is a good rule to live by. Always. 👍
Hit that like button for Norma everyone!! 👍
I pay $2 to get to Fremont from the Airport on the city bus. You can take the 108, 109, or CX and get there in about 30 minutes.
Public transportation is an excellent way to get around if you're not in a hurry. The kiosk are $20 for three days, but you can buy an all day pass from the bus driver( except deuce drivers) for $5 which is also good for the deuce. Now if you buy from the deuce drivers, the price of the tickets are higher, the same as the kiosk. Don't ask me why. I come to Vegas just to eat. Normally I'll stay 3-5 days. I've gone all over the strip and beyond using public transportation. Leaving the airport I take the 109 to the terminal and then the deuce to my hotel. This next visit I'll be taking the 108 to my airbnb, staying 5 days. There's a lot of eating that has to be done, lol. I don't like paying those incidental fees Norma mentioned for more than three days.
*Just a quick for note if you're planning on utilizing the RTC*
✓Have the exact amount for the bus.
✓Make sure you have your mask on. It is required.
✓Pick up a map of all routes; you'll be glad ya did.
✓Be sure to ask the driver if there is bus stop nearby your hotel resort that you're staying at. Many times tourists missed their hotel and find themselves backtracking to where they have reservations where they staying.
✓Have patience when waiting for the bus. If you're venturing away from the strip keep in mind RTC transit services are currently understaffed when it comes to drivers, folks. Please don't get upset with the 🚞 driver that does arrives & picks you up. They are not responsible for any previous buses that didn't arrive. Stay safe folks.
@@desmondcastro3679 When using the public transit there, I've found the deuce the only delayed and packed buses. Of course, that's to be expected. So like you said, don't get frustrated, enjoy your stay in Vegas, the best restaurants in the country.
@@sfdanceron1 Does everyone have to take the 109 to the terminal and then the deuce to your hotel? I'll be staying at The Linq in two weeks and I'm trying to figure out the cheapest transportation
@@ilymars14 I think using the bus from the airport, this is the most efficient way to the Linq. The deuce will drop you off near the Flamingo, I think. Btw, I've found there aren't that many people waiting for the 109 bus at the airport. When you get to the terminal, again, you'll be one of the few getting on the deuce. Just make sure you get an all day pass. You'll probably want to use the deuce again going up and down the strip, or using other buses going off the strip. If someone has a more efficient way using the public system, please comment.
The platinum hotel has a partial indoor pool where the water is heated to 80 degrees so you jump into the indoor part of the pool then swim under the glass to the outdoor section. The great thing is the water is 80 degrees so you are warm while you are outdoor as long as you are in the water. We were there a while back in November when the outdoor temps were in the 40's so it was a great experience.
Thanks. When she said no indoor, I was like whaaat..lol. I just booked platinum and it said they do thats why I was surprised
Vdara is my favorite! A kitchenette and fridge is always a plus. Some of the bigger rooms have a full kitchen with filtered water in the fridge and washer and dryer. So quiet and smoke free! Thank you Norma for sharing all the hotels that have a fridge. Huge plus!
Norma, you step your hosting up with every video...You are so creative, engaging and positive, you make me want to get to Vegas yesterday...Thanks for being such a sweetheart and beautiful person 😊
Who doesn't LOVE Norma's videos! She gives great advice, and is super cute. And I always get a kick out of her blooper clips at the end. Norma, you're # 1 !!
Also, shuttles usually have multiple stops at several hotels in one round trip, so they may take you to different hotels for other drop offs before taking you to your hotel. Cab is the fastest way to get to your destination
I’m arriving in Vegas next week for EDC Vegas for the first time since 2019 and this was a good reminder video of what to expect when I arrive in Vegas. Thanks for all the tips! 🙏🏼
Nora thank you so much for the great tips! Me&my wife came to Las Vegas from Istanbul, Turkey three weeks ago and stayed almost two weeks. We watched your videos before our visit and wow, your recos are really priceless!! Really appreciated!! Looking forward to see you in Istanbul asap ☺️
LOVE THIS VIDEO! Been coming to Vegas since the early 2000's and there were things you showed I didn't know about. This will be one of your top videos.
I used to work in the reservations dept of MGM Resorts. Thank you for mentioning if you book through a 3rd party, they can't make changes through the hotel. I used to get a lot of people get mad because I couldn't make changes. I also suggest you bring your copy of the reservation if booked through a 3rd party. Quite often, that 3rd party didn't send over your reservation and it's not in the system. With MGM Resorts players card, if you just sign up and start off on the 1st tie., If you're military, rather current, retired or spouse, show your military ID, and it automatically bumps you up to the next tier level and gives you free parking. I've lived here over 20 years and never get burned out because outside the strip, it's just a normal city. I haven't been to the strip in about 3 years
Nora my husband and I only visit Vegas Sunday through Thursday. I feel ya! Your channel is so helpful and being from California we visit many times a year.
Awesome tips! And as someone who has worked front desk, I thank you for mentioning that changes you want to make if you booked third party need to be made through them like Expedia and Priceline lol love the video so far girl!!
As someone who has worked front desk, do you recommend the $20 trick?
@@bicpapermate I've heard that front desk people might get in trouble for that
L,
This was such a well organized and presented video. Great information and good links to your other videos. I liked the POV of you just talking to the camera and delivering the topic perfectly. Good info so well presented, very thoughtful and professional.
You mention making sure to be hydrated -- one thing I would point out is that, unless you're from Los Angeles or some other city that gets Colorado River water, you're probably going to find Las Vegas water to be unbearably chlorinated and almost undrinkable. The first thing we always did while visiting from the Pacific Northwest was to pick up as many large bottles of purified drinking water as possible, and only use the tap water for washing.
I didn’t think people actually drank tap water I am from California
Thank you Norma for making this very informative video. I'm more prepared for the next time I travel to Vegas.
Really well done and well thought out. It shows you take time and thought. Your effort really shows in everything you do!
It’s always a pleasure to see you again Norma !
Hey Norma! Great content as always. Keep em coming!!
I have been to Las Vegas a hundred times and this covers so much good information, a must watch if your planning a visit. I love all your videos Norma, thanks for sharing.
I got back from Vegas for the first time in April, booked a trip back right away and going for 7 days December-January through New Year’s Eve!! I cannot wait. Stayed at Mandalay Bay first time, Bally’s I’m December. Thanks for these tips!
Loved the tips!!!! Very helpful, in-laws are heading up there for the first time and definitely making them watch this. I am diabetic so the medical fridge info was a real plus, had no idea they did that. Thanks for the great work your awsome!!!
This is one of the best vlogs I've seen about Vegas !! Great Job. Your channel is Awesome.
I appreciate it!!
What a great video, Norma! I had no idea there were shuttles anymore (we drive to Vegas) and we are so guilty of buying beer at the ABC store on Fremont a drinking them 😂🤣! Keep up the amazing work!
Norma! Thanks girl for all the information. My sisters and I will be visiting in two weeks and it’ll be our first trip. Hopefully we’ll see you on the strip!
Super news today, that we'll be able to travel from next month, and I'll get to take my December trip.
However, it's been so long since my first cancelled trip last year, I think I needed a good refresher :)
Great video, Norma!
I've personally never been to Vegas always wanted to go ! And now thanks too your videos it's on my bucket list
Thank you for you guidance ; when / if I come to Vegas ll make sure to check out all you have shown thank you again on the video keep it up - cheers ✈️
This video couldn't of came at a better time!! Thank you.. First time flyers here and we will be coming out to Vegas in early November for our anniversary. Super exited!!
Great reality on the ground video for the experience when arriving at the airport and getting transportation to the strip hotels. Good info on parking fees- the fees change often so contact the hotel to see if it's free or costs to park.
Le Macaron! We went there in September as you featured it in your previous video! A fun little secret spot! Thanks for your awesome videos Norma!
Oh awesome! Glad you got to go
Arriving Monday and this is so helpful. Another great video Norma!
Another great video Norma! You're truly becoming famous with them! Absolutely beautiful person you are and such a sweet personality! Stay safe and thank you!!!
Yes the airport taxi info was great for people that have never been to Vegas I think you are the first person that has explained that.
Thanks for the informative video Norma! I learned my lesson about those airport cabbies!
informative as always, am making my way through watching all your vids on vegas
This was a great video! Excellently performed and well done:D for those ppl who don’t know about Vegas, its a good guide. Hell even i learned a thing or two. Keep up the great work :)
Been watching your vids for a while now and I must say you've got so good at making them. They are super entertaining and super professional. 👍
Going to vegas for my birthday the 18th of this month and came across your channel, loving your content girl !! and the energy is unmatchable. keep it up
Norma great video as always !!!
Your insight on all these items is invaluable. Thanks Norma
That was so much fun watching you. You did good!!
Certain casino guests, the high rollers, don’t pay resort fees and usually don’t pay for their hotel rooms. Great informative video. Thanks for the shuttle/cab/Uber/Lyft airport to hotel information.
I need the link not pay resort fee
another great video Norma, especially for the first time Vegas visitor..keep up the good work...
Another great video. I’ve never seen/talked to so many people from Seattle in town for the Kracken/Knights game last Tuesday!
Nice Norma. I’ve been visiting Vegas for decades and still learned from this Vid. Thanks!
You're making me feel better about my stay next month at Park MGM! Thanks and great video!
Hi Norma, thanks for turning a bad morning into a great day after watching another fantastic video. By the way, the first resort you asked us to guess where you were, was the Venetian. Do I win the "Washer and Dryer." haha. Bonus points; formally The Sands. I was worried there wouldn't be any bloopers at the end, but you didn't disappoint us one bit. Always look forward to your videos. Enjoy your weekend. 😊
Thank you Norma your vlogs are very informative!!
Thank you Norma!
I’m glad to be a new Subscriber to your channel!
My wife and I are bringing our 3 boy’s (7,4,3) in 6-10 January 2021. I booked us a mini van and a stay at the Rio 6-10th and at Circus Circus on 9-11 January 2021. Hopefully I run into you, Pompsie & Mathew to say thank you in person for all your help with recommendations through your channels. Keep it up!
Mahalo!
oh nice! family trip! yea say hi if you catch us.
Norma, thank you so much for this vid! I did not know the shuttles were back. Great tip for my trip in a couple weeks!!! 😊
Hi Norma! Thank you for the information, it will help me a lot. I'll be in Vegas the last week of October. Hope to see you, and I appreciate the work you put into this video👍.
Fantastic and informative video, Norma! Well done 👍🏼
Thank you Norma been watching your blogs since you started great work. But I learned something new about drinking from a glass container on the strip.
Awesome! I would love to see more of these type of vids. Thank you Norma.
Thank you so much for this video! Great info!
Great tips Norma. Glad to see a couple of shuttles back in business too.
Going to Vegas in 2 weeks. Very informative video!
The M resort also has personal mini fridges in the room. Great job the on the videos by the way. Always enjoy watching them and learning new things to do!
Wow! Comprehensive and easy to understand. Thank you so much!
Really smart helpful video. You rock as always!
Great video! A lot of information in short time. Thank you!
I’m popping over in a few weeks and that was so informative. Thank you. You are awesome 👏 ❤👍
Great video NORMA❤
Wow, what a deep-dive into visiting LAS Vegas. Love it, good job
Lived in Vegas 2007-2009, You are a great Blogger. Fun to Watch
Hi Norma!! Thanks for all of the tips!! My fiancé and I actually saw you TWICE this day!! At toms urban and the Aria when you were filming!! We didn’t want to interrupt you but just want to say thank you and we love your videos!!! 🥰🥰🥰
Love it! Great how to video for the first timer. Interesting to see how much the airport shuttles prices have gone up since they have come back. I know the first time I went to Vegas that it was a bit daunting, luckily I was traveling partner that knew the ropes. Thanks Norma!
I still cannot believe no one knows about the upstairs seating at Le Macaron in the Venetian. It's almost always empty and it's an amazing view.
Great video for first timers and those that have been to Vegas before!!
Another great video Ms. Norma. Stayed at Park MGM last night for the concert @tmobile. Took the lady to your bridge table the night before. Great tips. Thank you!
These are great tips, thank you!
I love your videos. Always to the point
Thanks
Great Information Norma. Keep up the good work.
another 🔥🔥🔥 video! thank you @Norma Geli !!!
Nice video lots of info keep doing a good job!!
Great video, great info. Thank You Norma
Congrats on 50k subs, Norma!
I’ve stayed at 80% of the hotels on the strip and downtown, most will have the bellhop bring you a personal fridge if you want…15-20 bucks or maybe just a tip if you go to the bellhop directly. That’s a little secret in of itself, anything you want, ask a bell hop, depending on your pocketbook anything can be had.
Great video, Norma!
Great information and video!
Thanks Excellent video, teaches you everything you need 👏 gonna try and make it to Vegas next year 🙏😎 love the bloopers btw
Another great video. Thanks !
Extremely informative video down to the last detail. Very useful especially, for first time visitors.
Norma thank you for this video it was super helpful for my trip with my elder parents.
@12:00 just dab in your room instead of combusting dry flower. Dabs have minimal smell that dissipates quickly. Or stay at Cosmo with the balcony in the room
First-time viewer. Now a subscriber.
This was a terrific video.
So complicated, but well explained, thanks! Also, really great video edits!
Best LV travel guide video I've seen! I love the thorough details for the tips you provided and I can't to see more!
Aw thank you. I appreciate that
Another Great video, Norma. Good job! :)
Norma, thanks for the very informative video stay safe.
Great video Norma lots of beneficial Information Well Done & Keep Up the great work 👏👏👏🤙
I'm planning to move to Las Vegas next May. Your videos have been invaluable. I've been going to Vegas for the last decade and I've learned tons from you.
awesome! I do plan to maybe make a video or two about moving here
@@NormaGeli well maybe I'll be a case study then. Fortunately my real estate prices (Florida) are climbing as fast if not faster than Vegas is. Of course hitting Mega Millions would make it real easy. LOL
💕💕💕💕💕💕 Another great video Norma! You are becoming a Star at this ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐I wasn't aware that you can 'Borrow' a room in Vegas? I think that I will try that the next time that I am there .... wonder if I can borrow it for 5 days and nights?
I haven't been to Vegas for the past 2 years, (every year prior) .... but it's looking to me like things are starting to become very pricy there, no?
Thanks again for the video .... absolutely loved it!
I love the outakes you upload so funny Norma 🤣 Another great Video with great info . Always thumbs 👍 !
8:49. Just came from Vegas. Stayed at the Venetian that I booked through a third party. Literally the biggest hassle EVER to try and get the 3rd party to change my name. It actually never got done but LUCKILY the Venetian front desk changed it on the spot and I had no issues
Hi Norma! Thanks for the great video.
Wife and I visited that place in the Macaron shop in Venetian thanks to you Norma! We loved the area and the food.
Very nicely done Norma!
Great info Norma. Thank you for sharing 🥂🇨🇦
