Overview
*Minimum 2 people per booking
An exploratory small-group walking experience of the lesser-known watering holes, hidden bars, speakeasies, drink deals, cheap spots & happy hour spots on the Las Vegas Strip. Bars you should see & know but might miss if venturing alone!
Not your typical cookie-cutter bar crawl. Most bar crawls are 3 bars, you sit and wait forever for a drink. We're going to several bars, some we'll sit, some we'll grab drinks to-go and we're going to the fun spots, not some uppity bourgeois ultra lounge.
See itinerary for a sample of spots.
I'll also point out many other bars with deals so later in your Vegas trip, you know where to go back to! Saving you time and money.
It's more about discovering something new, having fun and having a Vegas experience. This tour is very flexible and spots can change during the tour based on what the group is feeling.
Questions? Feel free to reach out. Can do private too.
Note* most don't make it to the end. And no amateurs!

What To Expect
Best Western Plus Casino Royale–Center Strip
The Casino Royale in Las Vegas doesn’t strut or gleam—it grins. Nestled on the Strip like a scrappy street poet between marble giants and neon titans, it leans in close with a raspy laugh and says, “Come on in, sweetheart. We still do it the old way.” It doesn’t pretend to be a palace. It doesn’t need to. It’s the beating, beer-scented heart of Vegas as it once was—louder, cheaper, and a little more alive.There’s no chandelier made of a thousand crystals. There’s no Roman column or faux-Venetian canal. There is, instead, the unmistakable glow of $3 bottles, $5 drafts, the clatter of cheap chips, and the glorious scent of $3 hot dogs cooked just slightly too long.Inside, the ceiling feels low, like a secret. The carpet is loud and unapologetic, a kaleidoscope of colors that seem to whisper of long nights and longer odds. The lighting is dim, not moody but practical—because in Casino Royale, the star is the action, not the ambiance. This is Vegas without the designer heels!
