The Las Vegas Strip is the roughly 4-mile stretch of Las Vegas Boulevard that holds most of the city’s best-known resort casinos, and for most visitors it’s the default answer to “where should I stay in Vegas.”
Not Actually in the City of Las Vegas
Most of the Strip technically sits in unincorporated Clark County, not the city of Las Vegas itself, a quirk that surprises a lot of first-time visitors.
Walkable, But Bigger Than It Looks
Resorts are set back from the street behind their own driveways and parking structures, so a walk that looks short on a map can take 20 minutes or more between properties.
The Monorail and Rideshare Fill the Gaps
The Las Vegas Monorail runs along the east side of the Strip connecting several major resorts, and rideshare covers the rest, since the Strip’s layout doesn’t favor a quick walk between every property.
