When I was planning my trip to Las Vegas, I went to the largerst local book store and looked through all Las Vegas tourist guides which they had. I found this book by far the best, and my opinion did not change after the trip. Instead of providing a directory of hotels, restaurants, and attractions as it is done in most travel guides, the authors write about their own experience of staying at hotels, going to shows, eating at cafes, etc. This makes the book very practical. I used the recommendations and evaluations of the book to make a detailed plan of my Las Vegas trip, and I enjoyed every minute of that stay. I am sure that I would get lost in the miriads of attractions that Las Vegas has to offer without this guide. I agree with one of the reviews posted on Amazon earlier that a slightly more critical attitude of the authors would not hurt, and can add to it that I would make the index at the end of the book more detailed than it is now to make search for a specific information easier. Nonetherless, its a great book,which is worth every penny of its price.
