BUDGET TRAVEL
For those looking to make the most of their travel budget while visiting the "Entertainment Capital of the World," there are several options for the value-conscious visitor. Here are just a few:
New York-New York offers a variety of exhilarating nightlife - all under one roof, for one low price. With the purchase of the new $25 Value Passport, guests can party all night at a variety of venues, without breaking the bank. Deals offered with the Passport include one premium specialty cocktail at Center Bar; a pint of beer at Pour 24; a ride on The Roller Coaster at New York-New York; a pint or cocktail at Nine Fine Irishmen; admission and a brew at The Bar at Times Square; and VIP line pass admission into ROK Vegas. The Value Passport is available at the New York-New York Box Office.
Imperial Palace announces its "All In" travel packages that offer guests the convenience of rooms plus unlimited food and beverage at a variety of locations throughout the property, a concept new to Las Vegas. The Imperial Palace's "All In" packages start at just $95 per night. The convenient way of travel includes accommodations, unlimited trips to Emperor's Buffet, meals at Teahouse (café open for breakfast, lunch and dinner), and all-you-can-drink alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages at casino and pool bars.
Free attractions line the Las Vegas Strip and they're not hard to find. The Mirage's volcano erupts in a lagoon filled with waterfalls and palm trees every 15 minutes from dusk to midnight. The Mirage has joined forces with legendary Grateful Dead drummer Mickey Hart, Indian music sensation Zakir Hussein, and the Fountains of Bellagio design firm WET to create an all-new audio/visual spectacle for its famous volcano attration. WET forges a primal volcanic environment of sound, light, music and heat with choreographed FireShooters, which send massive fireballs more than 12 feet into the air. The volcano attraction features a state-of-the-art sound system with music and sound specially created by Hart and Hussein.
Next door, nightly passersby can catch the "Sirens of TI" at Treasure Island. The revamped version showcases the popular pyrotechnic war as male renegade pirates battle "sexy sirens" of Sirens' Cove. Performances run every 90 minutes beginning at 7 p.m.
Meanwhile, the world-famous Fountains at Bellagio thrill visitors with more than 1,000 water-emitting devices choreographed to music by artists such as Frank Sinatra, Elton John, Whitney Houston and Andrea Bocelli.
At The Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino, the newly reinvented "Show in the Sky" features dancers in costume fashions on floats suspended above the crowd. Three different performances include sexy and seductive "scenes" coordinated to today's top music hits.
Downtown's famous, casino-lined street is now the Fremont Street Experience, a 175,700-square-foot pedestrian area covered by a continuous canopy studded with more than 14 million lights. Each evening on the hour, this canopy comes alive with spectacular light-and-sound shows.
From Las Vegas Hilton to Luxor to JW Marriott, most major resorts offer free lounge entertainment that is available practically around the clock.
Low-priced attractions abound as well. "The Mac King Comedy Hour" at Harrah's Las Vegas is a great show value, with tickets priced at $24.95. The show contains quirky humor, visual gags and King's sleight-of-hand, all delivered in a tongue-in-cheek fashion. Other matinees worth checking out are Popovich Comedy Pet Theater or Amazed! The Magic of Music and Comedy, both at the V Theater at Planet Hollywood, with tickets priced under $40 per person.
For lunchtime bargain-hunters, nothing beats the classic $1.99 shrimp cocktail at the Golden Gate Hotel & Casino, the oldest hotel in Las Vegas. For gourmet on a budget, many Las Vegas buffets now offer fare from around the world and at a reasonable price. MGM Grand Buffet invites guests to take advantage of a $29.99 "All-Day Meal Pass." Available Monday through Thursday, each pass allows for one breakfast, one lunch and one dinner - a savings of almost 50 percent. At Excalibur's Roundtable Buffet, patrons can "Buffet All Day" for $25 per guest. Offering a savings of more than $20 off regular pricing, the value package includes VIP buffet line passes and unlimited reentry privileges. At Cravings Buffet at The Mirage, dinner guests can enjoy an "Early Bird Special" of $19.95 when they dine between 3 p.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.
What could be more romantic than renewing your wedding vows in Las Vegas? Show her that you love her all over again with reasonably priced Renewal of Vows packages. Priced from just $195, couples can relive their special day at Chapel of the Flowers. Renewal of Vows includes use of the chapel, a candle-lighting ceremony, traditional music, courtesy limousine service, a DVD of the ceremony and much more.
A group of Las Vegas-based tourist attractions have banded together to form Best Vegas Attractions. BVA's objective is to provide value-added opportunities for travelers and visitors through special offers and values. The program is designed to save visitors up to $500 or anywhere from 15 to 50 percent off the regular prices.
