Hi,
The Fremont St light show is worth going to. I would suggest renting a car for
one to two days. There is public transportation but sometimes the trolley is
full to capacity. Most of the hotels/casinos that you would want to see are on
the Strip near your hotel. There are a lot of free shows to see, ie the Pirate
Ship Battle at Treasure Island, the Volcano at the Mirage (Next door to Treasure
Island. Treasure Island also has Cirque de Soleil, I believe the new Bellagio
also has a show by Cirque de Soleil. The show is definitely worth the money. I
actually preferred the show to Sigfried and Roy which is probably the most
famous of the two. You can make reservations in advance some of the shows. The
rental car will come in handy for going to see the light show. I don't feel as
safe in downtown Las Vegas vs the Strip, so a rental car will come in handy for
that as well as casino/hotel hopping. Restaurants aren't any problem at all.
Most hotels have buffets and moderately priced restaurants. There is more than a
fair share of expensive ones as well. Let me know what type your looking for and
I can give you recommendations. Good Luck!
