What you'll see and do
See that huge golden lion on our right? That’s Leo, the MGM Grand Lion! Let’s pause to admire all his majesty. 45 feet tall and weighing 50 tons, this lion is one of the largest bronze sculptures in the United States. It honors the real-life Leo the Lion, who roared from the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer logo before the opening credits of every MGM film from 1957 until 2021! The new logo is actually CGI, though it still replicates Leo’s iconic appearance and, of course, that famous roar. Note: The tour is over 4 miles long, with more than 35+ audio stories, and takes about 1-2 hours to complete. New, Lifetime access, no expiry. Use it anytime, on any trip, as many times as you want.

The Las Vegas Strip
Did you know The Strip isn’t technically in Las Vegas? It actually exists in an unincorporated town called Paradise! See, this land was totally unincorporated all the way until 1950.
30 minutes here · Admission not included
The casino on our right is none other than the MGM Grand. The casino debuted its new location here in 1993, a time of booming development on the Strip. True to its name, it was the grandest resort of its time. Its hotel boasts 6,852 rooms, making it the third largest in the entire world!

On our right stands Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino. In operation since 2007, Planet Hollywood Las Vegas is one of the younger resorts on the Strip. This used to be the site of the Aladdin casino, which operated from 1966 until 1997.

Paris Las Vegas
Look to our right, and you might feel like we’ve crossed to a different continent! Well, sort of. This is Paris, Las Vegas. Home to replicas of the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, and La Fontaine des Mers, and a facade that combined elements of the Louvre, the Musee d’Orsay, and the Paris Opera House. It opened in 1999, as the brainchild of French cinema icon and native Parisian Catherine Deneuve.
Pass by without stopping
That’s Horseshoe Las Vegas, which opened in 2023 on the former site of Bally’s Las Vegas and, before that, the old MGM Grand. Its name pays tribute to Binion’s Horseshoe, a casino on the patch of Fremont Street known as “Glitter Gulch” that operated for nearly 40 years under the legendary Benny Binion. I’ll tell you more about him in just a moment.
Pass by without stopping
To our right is the Flamingo Hotel and Casino, which opened in 1946. It’s the oldest continuously operating resort on the Strip. This flamboyant resort became the model for all the high-end resorts that came to define the Strip in the 1950s and ‘60s. The Art Deco architecture evoked Miami Beach, and the Flamingo welcomed guests with an opulence scarcely imaginable in rough and tumble Las Vegas. It treated them to plush accommodations, fine dining, A-list entertainers, and round-the-clock gambling. The Flamingo even dressed dealers in white suits and tails and asked that players remove their hats in the casino.
Pass by without stopping
On our right stands Harrah’s Las Vegas, which has occupied its spot in the heart of the Strip since 1992. For 20 years prior to that, this site was the location of the Holiday Inn and Casino, notable in Strip history for having been one of the few casinos run by a woman.
Pass by without stopping
That huge structure on our right is none other than the famous Venetian. This used to be the site of the Sand Resort, a favorite haunt of Frank Sinatra and his Rat Pack. But I’ll get to that a little later.
Pass by without stopping
You’re not just seeing things, on our right stands The Mirage. Like the Flamingo before it, this resort’s appearance in 1989 provided a glimpse into the city’s future. Business magnate Michael Milken funded The Mirage. He sold $525 million of bonds to pay for its construction. But then, eight months before The Mirage’s opening, Milken was indicted on 98 counts of racketeering and securities fraud. Whoops! Still, owner Steve Wynn always gave him due credit. “Mike is the one who changed us,” Wynn once said, “No Mike, no Mirage.”
Pass by without stopping
On our right stands the mighty Caesars Palace, which has thrived here since 1966 Among those at the grand opening was Jimmy Hoffa, president of the Teamsters. The notorious union-slash-crime boss had helped fund the resort’s construction!
Pass by without stopping
To our right stands the Bellagio Hotel and Casino, which opened in 1998. It gets its name from a village on the banks of Lake Como in northern Italy. Developer Steve Wynn initially proposed constructing a 50-acre lake on the site, and an island in the middle of it for a French-Alpine themed resort, which was to be named Beau Rivage. But then Wynn and his wife took a vacation to Lake Como.
Pass by without stopping
To our right is ARIA Resort and Casino. ARIA opened in 2009 with the goal of modernizing the Strip with some seriously high tech innovations. Hotel rooms are automated and respond as soon as a guest enters. The curtains open, the TV and lights turn on, music starts playing, and climate controls kick in. When a guest leaves, the room shuts itself down to conserve power, all without anyone having to touch a single switch! In a city dominated by old fashioned style and old school sensibilities, ARIA definitely stands out.
Pass by without stopping
CityCenter Las Vegas
On our right is CityCenter, also known as the ARIA Campus. This sprawling multi-use complex includes the ARIA Resort and Casino, the Waldorf Astoria hotel and condominiums, the Vdara Hotel and Spa, Veer Towers condominiums, The Shops at Crystals, and a vast shopping mall.
Pass by without stopping
To our right stands the Waldorf Astoria. No, not that Waldorf Astoria. The Vegas recreation, of course! Waldorf Astoria’s flagship hotel in New York City has been a Park Avenue fixture for nearly a century. In that time, it has seen everyone from gangster Frank Costello to brutal Cuban dictator Fulgencio Batista!
Pass by without stopping
Coming up on our right is Park MGM itself, the only totally smoke-free casino on the Strip. It’s a bigger and more modern resort from MGM, albeit without the history of the MGM Grand. But do all these sleek, modern buildings have you hankering for the Las Vegas of the past? Let’s hear a little about that bygone era as we walk!
Pass by without stopping
Opened in 1997, New York-New York crowds the highpoints of the Manhattan skyline and a block of other NYC landmarks onto its facades. From left to right, the hotel emulates the Lever House, the Empire State Building, 55 Water Street, the Century Building, Liberty Plaza, the New Yorker Hotel, the Seagram Building, the Chrysler Building, and the CBS Building. But that’s not all! From left to right, the casino is fronted by fiberglass replicas of the New York Public Library, the Soldiers and Sailors Monument, the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island Center, Grand Central Terminal, and the Brooklyn Bridge.

Besides being an iconic example of the city’s bizarre desire to imitate other places, this also became the source of a major stamp scandal back in 2010! Here’s what happened
Pass by without stopping
On our right rises the cartoonish facade of Excalibur Hotel and Casino, named for the famous sword in the legend of King Arthur. Rumors of this castle being torn down have circled in recent years as widely and un-verifiably as those Arthurian legends circled in the Middle Ages. But here it stands, as sturdy as ever! Lodged firmly within the Strip like a sword in a stone.
Pass by without stopping
Luxor Hotel & Casino
Off to our right, across the parking lots, stands the Luxor Hotel and Casino, which opened in 1993. Named for an ancient Egyptian city, this resort has lost some of its luster over the years, but it used to be a major highlight of the Strip. A lot of that was thanks to the Luxor Sky Beam, which shoots straight up from the peak of the pyramid and can be seen from anywhere in the Las Vegas Valley.
Pass by without stopping
It’s impossible to miss that towering hotel up ahead on our right. That’s Mandalay Bay, which opened in 1999. Early in its development, the resort was called Project Paradise, and ownership tested dozens of other names before settling on Mandalay Bay. Mandalay is the second largest city in Myanmar, and sits on the bank of the Irrawaddy River. But it’s hundreds of miles from the nearest bay. So why “Mandalay Bay?”

Visit Strip
Great!!! We experimented at our own pace. The application worked well. If we compare the price of the bus vs. on foot, I think it is better to do it on foot especially when there is a beautiful sun.
Response from the operator: Claudine, I’m glad my Las Vegas Strip GPS Walking Audio Tour worked well for you and that you enjoyed exploring at your own pace. You’re absolutely right—walking the Strip, especially in good weather, lets you take in so much more. I’m glad my tour made that experience even better. If you’re planning more adventures in the area, you might also enjoy my Nevada self-guided tours, including Hoover Dam, Lake Mead, Red Rock Canyon, and more!

Nice tour with good explanation!
Have a nice tour with many different points along the Strip. Good explanation, not too long and easy to follow. Tip: keep the route of the walking route, otherwise it is difficult to navigate.

Audio tour of the Las Vegas strip.
Go at your own pace, start wherever you like, listen to it as many times as you like. Interesting history and background information. Bring your ear buds to listen as the streets are busy!

Also possible as a self-DRIVING tour!
First! We were in Las Vegas in August, the temperatures were always above 40 degrees, so staying outdoors was usually only pleasant for a short time. On foot you certainly need 2 hours for this tour, so I can not recommend in the summer. But we did the tour as a self-DRIVING tour. Due to the traffic situation usually only walking pace was possible, now and then we fast-forwarded or skipped a background information. The tour gave us a very good overview of Las Vegas. We also needed less than an hour for this self-DRIVING tour.
Response from the operator: Michael, I’m glad my Las Vegas Strip Self-Guided Walking Audio Tour gave you a great overview! If you're looking for more adventures, my 100+ Self-Guided Driving & Walking Tours offer the same convenience and flexibility across many other exciting destinations. Keep exploring!

Why this scores 62
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Las Vegas Strip Self-Guided Walking Audio Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Las Vegas.
How much does Las Vegas Strip Self-Guided Walking Audio Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $15 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Las Vegas usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Las Vegas Strip Self-Guided Walking Audio Tour take?
+
Plan for about 1 hour from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Las Vegas is not rushed.
Is Las Vegas Strip Self-Guided Walking Audio Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Las Vegas, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Las Vegas Strip Self-Guided Walking Audio Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Las Vegas Strip Self-Guided Walking Audio Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Las Vegas Strip Self-Guided Walking Audio Tour?
+
Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Las Vegas can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Las Vegas and add a light layer if any part of the 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Las Vegas Strip Self-Guided Walking Audio Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Las Vegas within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Las Vegas?
+
Las Vegas sells two trips at once: the Strip after dark, and the red-rock desert that starts twenty minutes past the last casino. Helicopter runs to the Grand Canyon, Hoover Dam half-days and Red Rock Canyon drives all leave early, while show tickets, speakeasy crawls and high-roller dining fill the evening. Outty Ranking weighs operator reliability heavily here, because the gap between a well-run desert tour and a coach-and-queue version is enormous. On Outty we rank every Las Vegas experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Small Group: Valley of Fire Half Day Tour from Las Vegas, Small Group Grand Canyon, Hoover Dam, 7 Magic Mountains VIP Tour, Grand Canyon West, Hoover Dam Stop, Breakfast, Lunch & Skywalk. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Las Vegas?
+
October to April. Summer highs above 105F make midday outdoor tours punishing. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Las Vegas?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
