BUSES
The city buses in this town are notoriously overcrowded and late. However, if you are on a strict budget and can't afford taxis or a rental car this is your only true alternative at this point as there are no other mass transit systems.

The primary bus you will be dealing with is called The Deuce, a double-decker that trolls The Strip and Downtown constantly. It's nicer than a normal bus and they do a better job of keeping up with things than they used to but they still have to sit in the mind numbing traffic on Las Vegas Boulevard and are often very crowded. The cost is $3.00 one way or $7.00 for an all-day pass with as many on-and-offs as you want.

City bus fares are as follows:

• All routes are $1.75 per ride except for the one that cruises The Strip, which is $3.00 one way or $7.00 for an all day pass.
• Senior citizens (62+) are 75 cents for one ride except for The Strip route, which is $1.50
• Children 6-17 are 75 cents except for The Strip route, which is $1.50.
• Persons with disabilities/medicare are 75 cents except for The Strip route, which is $1.50.
• Children 5 and under ride free with an adult

You can also buy passes online and have them mailed to you ahead of time. For more information visit the Citizen's Area Transit website (see below).
