- Wear comfortable shoes—the Strip is bigger than it looks and casinos are far apart
- Carry water; the desert heat and dry air are intense, especially June–September
- Casinos are free to enter and often the cheapest drinks—tip bartenders/waitresses (~$1–2 per drink)
- Never walk with alcohol outside in summer heat on Fremont/downtown—open container rules vary by zone
- Flash your hotel key only when needed; many resorts charge resort fees—factor those into your booking
