great guide

I was really impressed with this guidebook. When I last went to Vegas (November 2008), I couldn't believe how expensive everything was, even with the bad economy. I didn't think I'd be going back...but then my friends wanted to go this last weekend (June 2009) and I figured I just wouldn't eat or drink anything so I'd be able to afford the trip. Thankfully I found this guidebook first and was able to really enjoy my trip for a fraction of the cost of my last trip!! This book had great ideas and listed lots of places I'd never heard of before. There are deals in Vegas, you just have to know where they are! I will be checking out Pauline Frommer's other guide books in the future, but this one was great...I borrowed it from the library, but I liked it enough, I might just buy my own, now that I know I can afford to go to Vegas again!

Las Vegas

I really enjoyed the book because it lead me to things and places that I didn't realize were in Vegas. Everyone knows the Strip, but what's off the strip were the jewels of this book. Also, when I had last been to Vegas, the Deuce transportation system did not exist....this is a great book for not only the newcomers, but the old ones as well....I will be handing this off to some friends who are going to travel there soon...

Take it from a local...

As an actual Las Vegas native, I don't expect to be surprised by travel books about my hometown. This book, Pauline Frommer's Las Vegas, both taught me a few things I didn't know and made me laugh out loud at the same time. The writing is funny, more than a little irreverant, and to the point. Ms. Frommer had some local help from Kate Silver, who also keeps the snazzy verbiage coming. There is enough in this book to keep anyone, including LV locals, busy for weeks. And it's a hoot!
