Looking for a Budget Vacation?

Zeke Quezada
You want to get to Las Vegas for as little as possible and get a taste of the Vegas for as little as possible. Cheap hotels, cheap food, cheap entertainment, that explains your idea of a vacation.

  • Hotels:

    • Flamingo Hotel – The best deal in Las Vegas is found at the Flamingo. Low rates and the best location.
    • Imperial Palace – This hotel is in the heart of all the action but the rooms are a little dated.
    • Sahara Hotel – Located on the North end of the strip the Sahara is a long distance from the rest of the major strip hotels but there is a monorail station to help you get around.

  • Shows that will cost you less:

    • Defending the Caveman – Defending the Cavemen at the Golden Nugget and you will get you a good shor for less than $40
    • Folies Bergere – Las Vegas Showgirls for under $40? Yeah, it’s remarkable that this show is so inexpensive. A Las Vegas classic.
    • American Superstars - A very good tribute show for less than most Las Vegas meals.

  • Free Attractions in Las Vegas

    • Fountains at Bellagio – Free, impressive and a little romantic if you are with the right person.
    • Show in the Sky – Free show in the Village Casino, where dancers high above the casino floor entertain and then drop plastic necklaces down on the crowd. Excited?
    • Fremont Street Experience – A free light show right on Fremont Stree in Downtown. It’s huge and impressive.
