Smart Strip Transit & Safety
Stick to the main Strip corridor at night and use rideshare or the Deuce bus if you need to go farther than a 15–20 minute walk, especially after a game or drinks; avoid wandering a few blocks off the Strip in random directions after dark.
Tipping & Casino Etiquette
Plan to tip 15–20% at restaurants, $1–2 per drink for cocktail servers (even when drinks are comped on the casino floor), and avoid using your phone at live table games; ask dealers if you’re unsure about rules before you sit down.
