How to get there
There are three airports in Las Vegas. "The McCarran International Airport," "Henderson Executive Airport" and "North Las Vegas Airport." The McCarran airport is an international airport which has two terminals for passengers. Terminal 1 & 2 and each terminal services specific countries from all over the world. The second is for private purposes, air taxi or charter. The third airport which is the Henderson is for Tour operations.
As you land at the McCarran Airport, you can take the RTC bus into the city for a few dollars. The bus line offers a 24-hour service, and it is very easy and affordable. If you don't want to take the bus, you can rent a limo or Taxis which are available at the airport.
However, if your direct stop is the Strip, it will be very easy to get there because the international airport is across Mandalay Bay and many of the hotels provide shuttle services which can pick you from the airport. You can also rent a car as you land but we advise against it due to the heavy traffic and parking cost in the Strip.
