    Hi all,

    I'm looking for a multi centre holiday including Las Vegas, LA and San Francisco anytime this year - can anyone recommend some good websites for this? Ideally looking to spend no more than £800 per person for as many days as possible...


    Do it all yourself.
    How much time can you afford to spend away?
    How many of you going?

    Hi guys looking for some advice on how would you go about doing this.

    We are going to Vegas at the start on Oct this year and getting married on the 6th night we are in Vegas. Then we plan to get a hire car and go to LA then for another week or so before coming home, maybe even spending a few nights on the way there. So about 16/17 nights in all.

    Now would you plan this all yourself or get someone like TravelBag to do it for you.


    I will also be going out in October to get married :)

    I wouldn't spend to much time in LA. Look at going to San Fran via LA, or to LA via San Fran (probably a better route).

    PM me if you want anymore details - we did a toue a few months ago and loved it.

Easy enough to do yourself......VS website, carhire3000 website, Venetian website, holidayinn website for Fishermans Wharf, alcatraz website, usairways website, papillon website, supershuttle website etc etc.

    The flights are unlikely to get any lower than £400 ish at best...

    Just booked the first hotel for our forthcoming revist to Vegas this summer.

    June 6-13th (extended by a day so im out there to see England v USA in the World Cup)
    Junior Suite at MGM Signature on the Home Suite Home Promotion. Stay 7 nights pay for only 6, plus includes 2 breakfast buffets at MGM Grand.
    Grand total of $1235, minus $129 for the free night.

    Just need somewhere for the 5 night prior to staying there now.

    Have you tried using something like kayak.co.uk and selecting flexible dates? If you are flexible you may be able to find a better deal - we knocked over £100 off our next flights by flying out a day earlier than planned. Could try various airports as well - though obviously need to offset costs to travel to another starting point.
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    Daz - did you try the Stay 7 Nights promo.....usually same cost but you get $300 of MGM food chucked in instead of the free night.

    We preferred it last year having a decent breakfast that sorted us out for the day then having something to eat later in the evening. So having 7 x $20 breakfast buffet credit (x2) plus the $129 off the room rate would be better for us, also that 7 day/$300 credit deal isnt running when we are there.

    our deal is refundable however so if prices change over the coming months i'll rebook
