Customer Reviews

Not just for men!

While this book definately isn't for families it can be applied to travelers other than just men. I just bought this book (I'm a 32 year old married woman)and found some great advice that can apply to anyone that is looking to let loose and have some fun. I am soon traveling to Vegas with my husband and two girlfriends. The information on the bars and clubs was extremely helpful. We also plan to hit a strip club while there and this book helped us decide. While I've been to several local strip clubs, I have never been to one in a big city and it outlines some of the basics that are different than what I'm used to. I have been to Vegas 4 other times in the past couple years, but this will be my first trip that is completely social. This will be an exceptional tool to have.

On the Money

As advertised, this book would be a great resource for someone with limited Vegas experience who is traveling with a group of guys. I visit Vegas often so I picked it up mainly out of curiosity. For the most part, I think the authors hit the nail right on the head. I don't necessarily agree with all of the hotel and restaurant assessments but that's just a matter of opinion. It's tough to argue with their general theories and advice. I thought the "myths" section in the beginning was particularly well done. Also, throughout the book they have little insets titled, "Classic Vegas Mistake." These alone would be helpful for someone who has never been. I learned some of these the hard way over the years. As mentioned in other reviews, the book will not be of any help to other types of visitors (couples, families, etc..). Guys who are regular visitors to sin city probably won't find much new either, but it's an easy read and I found myself smiling in agreement often.

You must buy this book if your a guy going to Vegas

Just returned from 4 days in Vegas. I had not been to Vegas in 15 years and this book help make it a perfect Vegas trip. Every recommendation in the book turned out to be dead on. From the minute we set down at the airport and got into are waiting Limo, to tipping the check in girl 10.00 to get the room of our choice. I can't recommend this book strongly enough. With it you're an insider knowing what you want to do and when you want to do it getting the most out of every precious moment in Vegas. Without it you're standing in your hotel the 1st day hungry and tired with no idea how to start. Read the book go to Vegas and HAVE A GREAT TIME.

Score BIG In Sin City!

This book is perfect for anyone looking to have fun in Las Vegas, Nevada, A.K.A. Sin City. I've often wondered if all the hype about 'comped' rooms and 'happening' night clubs is true. After all, people are always telling me how to get things for free in Vegas, how to get into the hottest night clubs, etc. But is it true? This book answered those questions for me and explained the reality behind many other common myths. The book also includes advice on finding the best bars in town, where to eat like a king, where to gamble and how to gamble smart, and how to get around in the city. Believe me; if you've ever taken a cab ride in Las Vegas, you know what I'm talking about. Find out in advance how to get around before you arrive. It could save you time and money. The book also covers the most important topic, which is, "Where should you stay in Vegas?". You'd be surprised to find out how important this can be. The book explains why. Bottom line, I frequent Vegas quite often, even lived there for a summer in 2003. This book reveals quite a bit of Vegas 'Behind the Scenes' information I never knew about. You'll find no hype or fluff here. Just helpful tips and useful advice on making the most of your trip to Vegas. This is definitely good reading material for those looking to 'Score Big' in Sin City!

It's Vegas, baby ! ! ! . . .

. . .and what guy doesn't want to know just where to go and what to do while in Sin City! After all vacation time is short so why waste it figuring out things during your stay! The authors say it like it is and steer you in the right direction. Having been to Vegas just recently, I agree with their comments on the places that I have seen for myself and would feel comfortable trusting them on their other recommendations. Easy to pack, lots of info. Fun book to read too!
