How much would it cost to go to Las Vegas?|124717

I am wanting to go to Las Vegas for my 21st birthday in 2 years, but I am wondering how much I need to save. I know that prices will change in that time, but I just wanted an estimation. I am not looking for the cheapest price, I just was just wondering how much others had spent. I am only intending to be there for a weekend, and I do not gamble much. I intend on staying in a nice hotel on the strip and flying in, probably in December. Any answer would help.

  • Well, this is what I do, I am not necessarily looking for the cheapest price but I fly and I do get package deals. I don_t rent a car there because I don_t think you need one, especially if you stay on the strip. I am a gambler, but you say your not, and I usually bring around 1000. cash with me. That is not including my airfare and hotel. That is just my spending money. If you like to shop and see shows then I would say at least 500. And if you are looking to be there when you are 21 then I assume you want to drink. That_s not cheap. Oh yeah, don_t open the water bottles in the hotel rooms. It will cost you around 8.00 just for a bottle of water.

  • Figure about 160 per night for the hotel on the strip. Budget about 100-150 per day per person for food unless you go nuts or go very cheap. You will gamble, budget yourself 150-200 per day for light gambling. Transportation for the weekend should be about $50. Other entertainment/drinking/clubbing could go 100, 200 or more per night depending on you.

    You don_t mention if you are flying or where from so you have to figure that out but in 2 years, it will be more than now.

    Throw in a couple hundred more for misc. and you should be close.

    Hope that helps a little, have fun!

  • For one weekend, I_d think $500 would be the minmun, not counting the transportation to Las Vegas, and no maximum. Seriously. For example, there is a Ferrari dealership at the Wynn. The minimum price would be eating in coffee shops and and playing nickel slots, one nickel at a time, and not much else.
    December is actually a good time to be there, as the slowest time in Las Vegas, and thus the cheapest, is between Thanksgiving and Christmas, except for the first week in December, which is National Finals Rodeo week.
    Do a search for discount coupons, you can print some off web sites. Just don_t buy them on E-Bay, that_s a scam, as they_re the same coupons you can get for free in Las Vegas.
    Check out www.Cheapovegas.com.
    Also check out www.LasVegasAdvisor.com, and check out the _top ten values._ 99 cent shrimp cocktails, $6.95 steak dinners, etc. You might want to get their Pocketbook of Values too.
    Las Vegas used to be known for bargains, while they_re not as easy to find, they can be found. If you can go midweek instead of the weekend, everything will be more reasonable too, as well as less crowded.

  • Come Sun thru Thurs for the best air and room deals when you finally reach 21. You should save enough for the room, which on the Strip could be around $200 plus per night. Plus you need food, drinks, tips, and the cost of a show or two. You can charge everything but drinks and tips.

    I would plan at least $100 a day plus cost of room.

  • depending where your from ..get a nice package deal that includes a motel

    when i went a few years ago i paid roughly $600 for a flight and room Mandalay Bay...but that was about 3 years ago..with the soaring prices for fuel it could even be more..

    if you get a group together to help you celebrate your special day it could be cheaper depending on how many is in your group
    and December would be a great time to go bevcause fares are usually cheaper..
    many nice places to stay!!

  • I would recommend staying at Motel 6. It is only about 45 dollars a night. Buy your airline tickets several weeks in advance from Southwest Airlines, or also you could come on Greyhound...much less. Also in Vegas _have fun ride the deuce_ only 5 dollars for a day pass of the bus that takes you up and down the strip.

  • It is not possible to answer this question because of all the variables. That being said, when you do decide to book a hotel, seek out discount codes. I have provided you with one good link below. You will note that on the right hand side are a list of hotels offering discount packages. There is a code in brackets next to the hotel name. Copy and past that code in the appropriate box at that hotel_s website when you are making your reservation.
