    Brilliant trip report Gav and Chole

    We're back for our anniversary in September - and i am going to book that Scoot City as a surprise for the OH - it looks brilliant and he'll love it :)

    Thanks again

    I knew I recognised Scoot City from somewhere, just checked and it came up as a deal on the Groupon site a while ago:

    http://www.groupon.com/las-vegas/deals/scoot-city

    I've noticed a couple of these deals come up again if they've been on there once, so might be worth waiting to see if they do another offer - if so it's a pretty good saving on the full tour price.

    Definitely worth the trip. Ridiculously fun. He said that he started the company in 2007, and they have had more business this year than the past 3 put together!
    We used the Groupon from a while back (he also noted we were the only people not from the US to use it!) and said it was the biggest profiting Groupon Vegas has had.
    We will be doing the trip in the future again, and are more than happy to pay full price, definitely worth it.

    A great report. I really enjoyed reading it start to finish. I didn't know there was a jelly bean statue of liberty in NYNY. I must go and see that - lol. Really liked all the little facts and stuff that I didn't know. Obviously, OH is sick of me talking over the football..... :rotfl:

    Loved the look of those scooters too! Can you tell me the price of the trip and what sort of time you left and came back to Vegas at? Might look at this for a future trip too..... :-)

    Hi Mooky,

    I have attached below the website for the Scoot City Tours, all the up to date prices are on there and even more information about the company tour etc .... You can also buy one of the Scooters, I have managed to talk Gav out of it for now!

    http://www.scootcitytours.com/index.html

    We went on the morning trip which is between 8am and 8.30 am pick up from your hotel.... they also do an afternoon tour with pick up around 1pm. Overall we were out and about for around 4 hours. It was a lot of fun and worth every penny. We will be booking this again next time we go!

    If you do book it make sure you say hi to Johnny from us!
    Oh, and if you have any other questions just ask I don't mind!

    Great trip report Gav! Just finished reading it. You didn't half hike up and down the strip!

    My feet suffered Luci :( - I think they are only just getting back to the normal shape, the Grand Canyon trip was the killer! It was definitely worth it though. Thank you to everyone on here though for all the help and advice, I think without you guys we would have been pretty lost and wouldn't have been able to do all the stuff we did!

    Thanks for the tip - i will.

    T-10 minutes until Garth tickets go on sale. I wonder how long this process is going to take. :) The nice thing is we think we're booking flights tonight once we know how the tickets thing goes...AA prices are still where they were earlier in the week so that's nice.
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    The AA sale finishes on Friday. Hope you get the flights you want at the price you want.
