I purchased this book to help me plan out my upcoming trip to Las Vegas. I have only been there once and it was about 10 years ago. It is obvious that a lot of research went into this book and I was extremely pleased at the way it is written (think cliff notes, not novel). At the beginning it gives short itineraries for various Vegas target groups (ie, beginners, families, high rollers). It rates nearly all the hotels/casinos, numerous restaurants, and many of the shows. As well as providing pricing information for all the aforementioned activites. The book offers great gambling advice for the novice including rules and tips on such games as craps, blackjack, roulette, slots, and even sports wagering. It covers the strip, downtown, and other attractions in the area such as the Hoover Dam. The book really offers a comprehensive review of everything Las Vegas. It also includes great tips and strategies for saving and winning money. I strongly encourage would-be travelers to pick up this easy to follow guide before touching down in sin city. Fodor's beat the house odds with this gem.

The best guide ever. It covers everything you want to know about Vegas: the casinos, restaurants, hotels, shows, shopping, clubs, even helpful links to websites and pull out map and much, much more! It also briefly describes the side trips from Las Vegas such a Hoover Dam, Lake Mead or even the Grand Canyon. And oh, if you are new to gambling gives you some lessons, tricks and tips for enjoying the casinos.
