Overall

My favorite thing to do in Vegas is to eat at a buffet and then walk the Strip taking in all the sights from street vendors to the spectacular displays like the Bellagio water show to work the food off. The best area to stay in is either Downtown or on the Strip, especially for a 1st timer because CAT(bus) Routes 301 and 302 run back and forth through these areas to the biggest attractions. Tips and tricks, the best I know of is the 301 and 302 CAT(bus) Routes that run up and down the Strip and to Downtown. Daypasses are a bargain for most travelers The 301 stops at each Casino on the Strip, the 302 stops only at certain Casinos, it's an express. Downtown has the older Casinos and in my opinion better gambling as well as the Fremont Experience which includes a musical lightshow and often there are live performers there. There are plenty of trollies that are similar to the express bus service, they stop at certain hotels along the strip and cost about the same as a bus fare. I personally did a lot of walking because often the buses are full and will not stop, it can take a hour for a bus to stop in worst case senarios, and you get to see things at your leisure.
