The Deuce

First trip to Vegas and didn’t realize how terrific this combined with the SDX could be until the end of our trip. Maybe a little slow getting around but after walking everywhere for 2 – 3 days a short bus trip to save the feet was welcomed. $ 20 for a 3 day pass and unlimited trips is good value. You can hop on and go one stop up get off and repeat all the way up and down the strip. Drivers are a bit aggressive on the start and stops so definitely be sitting down or holding on at those times.

No schedule of arrival times anywhere, they say they run on the holiday or Sunday schedules but they don’t say what those times are. Watch 5 buses go the other way with none coming back up the strip.

Buses are frequent, but overcrowded. Bus drivers are obnoxious and derive pleasure out of slamming the door in your face. I recommend sneaking on thru the back door. Scroom.

The Deuce is the cheapest way to slowly drift down (or up) the strip, most times at a relatively super kinda pretty slow pace, and can be a source of general agitation if you are actually in a hurry to get anywhere. The busses are, however, a fantastic alternative to a cab if you happen to be traveling a particularly long way from your hotel, and if you aren’t in a hurry… it’s a good way to slowly sightsee your way down the strip, out of the heat.
The busses are double decker, so the front row of the top level is where you want to be for the best view. Pro tip: Don’t stand in the stairs. There are signs everywhere, but people insist on doing it anyways. There are cameras everywhere, so the driver can see you, at varying angles. They must be pretty good too, because when «hey you», «hey guy», and «hey guy in the yellow shirt» doesn’t get your attention, the driver will probably start describing other things you are wearing, what you are drinking, what brand of camera you have around your neck, and the facial expressions you are making. Always fun to watch.
In the morning and late late in the evening, I felt like we were flying past everyone. Most other times… less so. Between the stoplights and the time it takes for people to get off and on at each stop (and there are plenty of them), a two mile trip can very well take 20 – 25 minutes. Plan accordingly.
The 3 day ticket was the best value, and costs as much as a one-​way cab ride up or down the strip. I was happy to walk most of the time we were there… but the bus is a great alternative to getting really hot — especially if you are heading to dinner or a show.
The Deuce tickets also work for the SDX — which has far fewer stops and gets you where you are going much faster — but only if you are going somewhere close to a stop.
Go to Vegas. Ride the Deuce. Don’t stand in the stairs.

The bus is nice but the drivers have really really REALLY bad attitudes making it unpleasant to ride. But the busses seem safe and pick up often.

The bus is great but three times we had female bus drivers who were SOOOO RUDE!!! They make the bus ride very unpleasant. Compared to any other business in Vegas where people are extremely nice and welcoming this is horrible customer service.

Awful service. They make you buy a 2 hour pass but the bus takes close to 10min at each stop and often doesn’t let you get on because it is too full. Do not take. Hopefully Über picks up steam in Vegas.

It was my first time taking the Deuce. The experience was better than I thought it would be. I arrived in Las Vegas at the South Bay Terminal from Los Angeles via the BOLT bus. Here, I picked up the Deuce to take me to my hotel (Ballys). It was easy, convenient, cool, and not confusing. It’s very easy to use and I think I will use it again when I come back.

This is the perfect way to get around on the strip. I was with my 11 year old niece and it saved our butts many times. $ 20 for 3 day passes. Cheap and easy. We will do this again anytime we come to Vegas. We have never used the monorail so I cannot compare… but taxis are a rip off and walking is just too much.

Couldn’t see much of the strip due to a blocked view from advertising billboards plastered all over bus windows
Hope the bus driver couldn’t see more than I could

This is a great way to travel up and down the strip, downtown Fremont street, outlet shopping and even to the pawn stars shop. It was $ 8 a day for a 24 hour pass. The stops and pick up points are clearly labeled and easy to find. Make sure you have exact change as the bus drivers and ticketing machines do not give change. No alcohol allowed on these buses unless you want to spend 30 days in jail. For the most part our drivers over the three days were courteous. We had one driver who was grumpier beyond words. Security was on a lot of the buses or at the stops which was great and added a sense of safeness when travelling off the strip. Buses run every 15 minutes. A really awesome alternative option to renting a car.

Yes. The bus was clean. Yes. It got me from point A to point B, and then back to point A. Yes. It was cheap. But it also took FOREVER. I realize this isn’t exactly the fault of the bus, but it just was not a great way to commute. I much prefer the monorail, as you can get from one end of the strip to the other FAR faster. Next time I am skipping the bus entirely and just getting a monorail pass.

Writing this review from the perspective of a tourist to Vegas.
I’d been to Vegas a few years ago, but for that trip my friends and I drove there, and we had a car to get around. On my last trip there was no car, and honestly I just figured I’d be walking or taking cabs everywhere. Most of the stuff my friend and I were checking out was on The Strip, but I knew The Strip is pretty big and walking the entire way would be a little exhausting. Plus we wanted to check out Freemont Street and some of the Outlet Malls.
So hurray for The Deuce. The bus has various stops along The Strip. A 3-​day pass is only $ 20 or a 1-​day pass is $ 8. Hop on and Hop off wherever you need (just make sure to have your pass with you). It was super convenient to be able to get around The Strip and go to Freemont without having to worry about catching a taxi. Sometimes there was a bit of a wait from one bus to the next, but never more than a few minutes. I wish there was a bus like this that went to the airport. Easy to use and convenient. Definitely make use of The Deuce if you’re visiting Vegas.

Great way to get up and down the strip! 20 $ for a three day pass! Just don’t try to take your drink on there, they will get mad :) lol hands down saved me so much money! Walking around was awesome but it was nice to hop on the bus and rest my feet for a bit! Gets very crowded at night so be prepared to stand at rush hour! Overall a great experience and super fun meeting new people on the bus! Don’t waste your money on cabs or renting a car! The bus is the way to go!

$ 20 for 3 day pass
Perfect when all suited up for convention.
Pick stop serviced by both deuce and sdx.
Take the express when possible to Fremont. Goto the top for aerial view just watch your head.
Pass good for local bus for off strip shopping.
-* load up passengers at each stop

Probably one of the faster and ways to travel up n down strip during day, getting all the way from Mandalay bay in south to Premium Outlets and Downtown in North. You get a hourly, day or 3-​day pass for a very reasonable amount of money. You can jump on and off the bus on whichever station you want, and this is a good way to explore more areas than you normally could walk.
This is a more casual way to stroll along the strip and is the only transportation in vegas that is aloud to drop you off right on the strip. If you summarize the time you spend waiting in the taxi stand, and walking back and forth the strip, i bet its pretty much even most cases. Of course when going longer distance taxi will probably be faster, but i dont think its a certain amount of difference.
I dont promote always going the Deuce, but its a great complement during day when going shopping and exploring the city more.

We were in Las Vegas for a weekend and Fremont Street was on the list, what better way to get there?
The Deuce is a handy tourist bus route that runs from the Strip to Downtown LV. It runs every 15 minutes and stops at all the major casinos along the way.
Double-​decker buses are the usual form of transport providing good views.
The cost is $ 6 for 2 hours, or $ 8 for 24 hours. We opted for 24 hour pass.
The ride takes some time, has plenty of «upcoming stops and attractions» messages.
This is a great way to get to points up and down the Strip, if they are too far to walk, give it a try!

«A must»
Get a ticket and travel to fremont street. The service is good and value excellent. Save your feet. Avoid the cc machines and buy with cash only or pay on bus

Cheap, effective way to navigate the strip. Saves time, and saves money.
Sometimes it takes forever for a bus to show up though… there were times we probably waited 20−30minutes.

The Deuce is great way to get around Vegas, but like the LV Monorail, it does have a set of positives and negatives.
Positives
— More stops on the Strip than the Monorail. There’s almost one outside every major resort.
— $ 20 for 3 days unlimited rides is a great deal if you want to go up and down the Strip (and you probably will). One quick note is that not all Ticket Dispensers on the Strip offer the 3-​day pass. I can’t name the exact locations, but based off my last trip, I know the machines at The Wynn bus stop offer it. There’s also a stop outside the Fashion Show Mall on Spring Mountain Road in front of Macy’s that has a locals rate of $ 5 for a 24 hour pass, which in actuality is the best deal when you break it down.
— It also gives you access to venture to Downtown Vegas, and also travel out to the off-​strip areas like Summerlin and Chinatown. This is probably the best perk, especially if you want to eat at a lot of the popular off-​strip restaurants like Bachi Burger, Raku, Lotus of Siam, etc.
— Buses are Air Conditioned!
Negatives
— Traveling by bus on the Strip during peak hours is slow, I mean «tortoise and the hare» slow. You actually benefit more by just walking.
— Missing a bus means you’ll have to wait another 15 – 20 minutes for the next one to arrive. Sometimes this has let me option for a taxi or walk over the Monorail since their trains arrive more often.
Overall I think the pros still outweigh the cons and whenever I visit Vegas, I always get a 3-​day pass immediately when I get there. Plus it’s just nice to ride and take a load off after walking in the hot summer days.
