Give us 15 minutes and we’ll give you the Strip. In minutes, the Las Vegas Monorail connects you to the city’s world-class restaurants, shows, shops, clubs, hotels and casinos in a safe, comfortable and clean environment. You won’t be stuck in traffic, waiting in lines or piling on buses.

With seven stations located at MGM Grand, Bally’s/Paris Las Vegas, Flamingo/Caesars Palace, Harrah’s/The Linq, Las Vegas Convention Center, Westgate Las Vegas and SLS/Sahara Avenue, we’ll take you just about anywhere you want to go. And we’ll get you there quickly with trains arriving every 4-9 minutes during our hours of operation of 7 a.m. to midnight Monday, 7 a.m. to 2 a.m. Tuesday through Thursday, and 7 a.m. to 3 a.m. Friday through Sunday. You’ll be cruising in climate-controlled comfort from daybreak into the wee hours of the morning.

Hop on for a one-way trip or pick up an unlimited pass for the freedom to travel at your leisure. We offer SingleRide tickets, Unlimited-Ride passes and many more options. Tickets are available at all Monorail stations and online at lvmonorail.com.

The Las Vegas Monorail carries more than 5.1 million passengers annually and provides significant reductions in vehicle miles and emissions for our Southern Nevada community. In fact, the Las Vegas Monorail is responsible for eliminating more than 23 million vehicle miles on our roadways. This is equivalent to 48 round trips between Earth and the moon.

There’s no easier way to hit your favorite destinations on the Strip than the Las Vegas Monorail.

Take a single peanut butter-filled chocolate cookie or dive into individual creme brulees or still warm mini souffles. Crepes are made to order your way, whatever the ingredients. Mini cupcakes, cake pops and dessert shooters mean you can fill a plate with a wide variety of flavors. Thicker slices of red velvet cake or lemon meringue pie are individually pre-cut. Stack up some gelato and pile on the toppings or opt for the comfort of cobbler or red velvet pancakes. Caesars Palace, 702.731.7928
