The Las Vegas Strip is one of the most famous streets in the world. Bright light city it's like nothing you've ever seen before. It’s filled with everything that mankind can produce and some of the hotels, shows and attractions are just beyond belief. The tram through the strip was a neat experience too. Conquering the Las Vegas is entirely too much to do in one day. There's so much to see, take pictures of and do on The Strip. It's awesome and overwhelming at the same time. It’s always a fun place to visit. Not necessary to gamble just enjoy the shows, people and scenery. Bring your walking shoes because this is such a lengthy stretch of land. Sometimes the driveway to the hotels can feel like its miles long so be prepared to walk. Walking the Strip is great exercise too.
No trip to Vegas without visiting the downtown. Take a trip to Fremont Street to experience some old school Vegas vibe. Fremont Street in downtown Las Vegas is a fun little, often-forgotten gem of a good time that brings to mind the Sin City days of old. While it’s not real close to the Strip, it is a worthwhile trip to experience the unique character of casinos and bars completely different than the mega resorts found on the Strip.

Iconic Vegas Ambiance located in the heart of Fremont Street’s never-ending party. After an adventurous day, dip into the lagoon-style swimming pool which circles a three-story shark tank with a water slide running through it. |
Fremont Street is between 2 to 5 miles from the Strip. The main route is simply staying on Las Vegas Boulevard as taking the street north puts you on the east end of Fremont Street. Whether taking a bus, taxi, or driving, this colorful route has you passing by wedding chapels. The street is also home to several adult bookstores, bail bonds shops, Olympic Gardens strip club, a United States Federal Courthouse, and the Gold and Silver Pawn Shop, made famous by the boys from Pawn Stars tv show.

Fremont Street became home to many other firsts in Vegas including the 1st paved 1925, later the 1st traffic light, and city’s 1st neon light at the Oasis Café in 1929. |
