Guidebook for Las Vegas
Sightseeing
You can ride the elevator up to the bar at the top of the Stratosphere hotel for free and walk up to the observation deck. The views of the strip and surrounding Las Vegas are PHENOMENAL!
If while you're there, you feel the need to jump off the side of the stratosphere, you can purchase a ticket and do just that (safely, of course)! Tell me how it goes..... I've never done it.

Great place to hike and sight see. Take a picnic. There are numerous shelters with picnic tables. The place is named after the rocks which stick up from the valley floor and are a vibrant dark red.

You will find Indian Petroglyphs on the rock faces everywhere giving the place a sense of ancient wonder.

Getting Around
Rent a car during your stay. Cars are cheaper in Vegas than Uber or Lyft most of the time and parking at our house is free.
You can hop a shuttle right outside the baggage claim that will take you speedily to the McCarran car rental building that has quite a few rental companies represented. Just ask an airport employee to direct you to the car rental shuttles.
Also, if you're here for the strip, parking at hotels is free, or pretty reasonable. so no worries there either, not to mention that there is free parking around all around the strip. Check out near the High Roller, the giant ferris wheel, there are several free lots right near it, very central on the strip.

If you want to use UBER or Lyft from the airport, there is a pickup spot at McCarran airport in the same parking garage as Long term/Short term/Valet parking.
Check out my notes on renting cars in Vegas. Often times it's cheaper.
