Las Vegas 2007 bargain hunt + tips

NAR

Alanshave, we travelled with Heliusa and am happy to recommend. We booked online in advance of trip and managed a $50 discount (though we travelled in November). We landed and went for a horse ride with the cowboys in the desert and had a meal at the ranch house. All added to a most memorable day. Enjoy!

i would consider doing it that way too, if time permitted .

i,m reminded of a signature i saw on one of the vegas boards

" every minute i,m not in vegas is like a hour, every hour i,m in vegas is like a minute"

Know what you mean by that quote, but I usually go for 2 weeks and have a couple of days break in the middle, but I do pine for Vegas in those 2/3 days.

Thanks for that so far folks.

Trets - Would you say it is worth booking a helicopter flight that lands at the canyon or do you see the best of it from the air?

And you just visit these outlets on a day you want to see a show to generally pick up a cheaper ticket?

Yes you visit the ticket outlets on the day to get half price tickets, but that only gets you a voucher that you have to then exchange for a seat at the theatre box office, so the earlier you get your voucher the earlier you can get to the theatre, the better seat you get.

you can print a $2 off coupon here for tix4tonite valid for up to 4 tickets. There is also somewhere you can print off a vip line pass but I cant find it (well worth it though)

Thanks NAR and Photome.

I've booked up with Heli USA for the Canyon/Ranch deal, sounds really good and happy to pay $384.

Additional show discounts here:

Think most have been posted before - mostly upgrades, some good discounts and bonuses like free slot play.

they would have to give those tickets away. this show is the pits. pam comes on in the third part for about 3 minutes it's always a sign of a failing show when you can get the half price offer

yes and no. many popular shows are in big venues that they cannot fill on weekdays. of course there is plenty of dross in with them. very few shows never offer discounts

Anyone seen Le Reve and has an opinion?

I'm trying to book Cirque - preferrably 'O' - for 24th November but only Zumanity appears to be on. I'm confused because it doesn't say O isn't playing but no tickets are showing.

confused!!
