If you want to experience the old city of Las Vegas and the old street, you can go to Las Vegas Downtown. In addition, the Outlet is located on the north and south sides of the avenue, which are all a short drive away.

RENT CAR
In most cases, it is not recommended to rent a car. However, there are several situations in which renting a car is very reasonable. Car rental advice Alamo
1. Want to drive many days to nearby natural landscapes and national parks
Nearly like Red Rock Canyon (20 minutes drive), Hoover Dam (40-50 minutes drive)
Far from the most popular Antelope Canyon (4.5 hour drive), Horseshoe bend (4.5 hour drive), Zion National Park (2.5 hour drive), Bryce Canyon (3.5 hour drive) , Grand Canyon West or Grand Canyon National Park (2 hour drive, 4 hour drive)
If you just want to go to these scenic spots for a long day, it is recommended to participate in the one-day tour, not to drive a single day, 4.5 hours driving 9 hours a day is very hard. Underneath we recommend some single day groups
2. If you are familiar with the road conditions in the United States, there is no navigation and you are not worried about getting lost.
3. is expected to go to the Outlet to buy a lot of things.
You don't have to take a bus to buy a lot of things. (But Uber and Lyft can also be solved)
4. Restaurants that don’t want to spend a high average on the boulevard and are not necessarily delicious.
Chinatown and other localities look for local cuisine. (But Uber and Lyft are still very convenient. Las Vegas is relatively small, and most of the journeys are between ten and twenty minutes. The one-way fare is estimated to be more than a dozen dollars.) Chinatown Restaurant Recommended: Non-Avenue Food Recommended - China Town Old Town There are many foods in Chinatown and the price is not as expensive as on the avenue.

Would you like to take WAX can not carry the provisions of luggage ??
Travel need to carry luggage from the airport directly to OUTLET.
But see the WAX official website marked this "Practically you are not allowed to bring onboard any object that is too large to fit between passenger seats and this include luggages. By law, the aisles must be kept clear of grocery bags or other packages ." Very confused
Buses are usually not able to carry luggage, but if not spikes should not be too strict. If not, then proposed to take Uber.
Is it expensive to call Uber in Las Vegas?
