I guess my big question is, why would anyone want to walk around on the Strip? You do it once, and you realize it’s crowded, pedestrian unfriendly, noisy, and just unpleasant.
Last time we stayed off-Strip with a rental car. If we need to go to the Strip for something special (for me, that’s the Caesar’s, Bally, and Hilton sports books) or for a show or restaurant, we make the 15 minute drive and park at the front door of the destination hotel (valet parking). Easy, no hassle.
Well, the reason why we walk around the strip is that our rig is rather large for all those parking lots/garages in Vegas. We find a good parking space and leave it be, then walk.
