The Las Vegas Monorail
Past, Present and Future

 Even if you don't need a ride, you have to check out the Las Vegas Monorail. It is constantly changing its story and its looks, but the fame of the whole idea and the history that comes along with it make this a stop you don't want to miss on your visit.

It is very similar to the Disneyland version, fast.....from one end of the strip to the other in less than 15 minutes.

The ride is climate controlled, an amazingly relieving feature in our hot blistering summers and you can laugh at those on below on foot, suffering in the 117 degree heat while you ride above cooler and faster.....this is kind of a budget limousine.
