hey y'all it's tanya day from turn it up
world and stick around because we have
some extra don'ts of las vegas for you
coming up later on
in this video oh yeah hidden fellow
travelers mark here with walter's world
today we're in
fabulous las vegas nevada for the don'ts
of visiting las vegas and i think the
first stone i have to tell you is
don't be timid when you come to las
vegas i mean
you have the funnest of fun times you
have the craziest craziest times
you'll see people doing crazy things fun
things you'll see
keep people taking their kids around
town i mean this place
has everything and i think we've seen
everything from people in g-strings to
people's body parts
i think in some parts of the country you
might get in trouble for having that out
i mean it is it is las vegas and the
strip
specifically is where you need to not be
timid you go outside the strip it's like
just any other big city but when you're
on the strip
don't be timmy because you're going to
see some stuff you're going to smell
some stuff
and you're going to hear some stuff okay
so have a heads up for that all right so
i just want to get that one out of the
way
the second don't i have for you is don't
trust the price
of the hotel you see online look
when you come to vegas you'll see great
deals for whatever hotel you want to go
to whatever resort you want to be
and there's a ton of great places to
stay when you're here great rooms great
fun all kinds of stuff
but you're going to see these great
prices for the rooms you're like yes
awesome and then you get there oh i got
this room for 150
a night and then you get there like oh
and then we also have resort fees
what what's a resort fee oh that's 35 40
50 55
per day that you're here that they add
on and they don't list
that most of the time they do not list
that when you're looking for prices
because that's in addition to the reason
behind that is you know you get to use
the the pool
you get to do go work out you can get
the internet you know those kind of
things
they're charging for that and the thing
is don't bother complaining about it
because it doesn't matter if the pools
are closed you're still painful
all right and people complain and
complain and complain all the time no i
don't want to pay the resort fees look
they're part of life when you're here
you're not going to get out of them all
right so
don't think that your hotel is the price
you see add on i would say about 40
bucks
per night okay per night per room
for that all right so so just give it a
heads up i'm sorry about that
another donut i have for you is don't
use the atms
in the casino bring your cash from home
bring a lot of ones and fives as well so
you can tip for your drinks and tip
people really nicely when you're here
because tipping does help okay but the
thing is the atms and the casinos
their fees tend to be quite high okay so
do be careful
with that there are ways you can go
around it people will talk about going
to walgreens and buying some and then
taking
extra cash out that way but honestly
your best bet
bring some cash with you okay especially
the smaller bills so you can tip
the thing is if you don't want to bring
cash i mean you can use card almost
anywhere
but it's hard to tip that waitress
that's bringing you free drinks
if you don't have cash okay and that's
another thing i should really say is
when you're in the casinos
don't forget to tip those waitresses i
talk about this in every single one of
my videos
because it's that important if you want
to get those comp drinks the casino
which you'll get they'll bring them by
but if you want them to come more often
bring you nicer stuff
don't forget to tip that waitress the
more you tip the more they come around
the better drinks you get so
so just have a heads up for that all
right now speaking of drinks when you're
here
when you're on the strip you'll see a
lot of people walking and drinking
alcohol
at the same time and that's okay but my
don't for that is
don't drink from glass you can totally
walk around with a big old bone a drink
and it's no problem or a plastic cup or
something
but once you're having glass bottles and
stuff like that that's when the police
are not so happy okay so make sure
you're using plastic so you don't get in
trouble okay and
i think another don't when you're on the
strip don't jaywalk
i mean you don't jaywalk on the strip
that's one of the ways you can get in
trouble is jaywalking here
because they have all these escalators
that go around that'll take you over and
you can walk
over the strip and stuff and it's not
always safe to cross the street so
they're like no jaywalk
there are pretty strict with that so
just use the escalators or the elevator
to go up and do
the crossovers though i will say i think
another doubt that i just remembered is
don't always expect those escalators on
the strip
to be working i mean you are going to
get a workout when you're here okay from
all the walking you do
but when those escalators that go up
aren't or down you really get the step
set okay
our first day here 23 000 steps over 10
miles of walking just
exploring the strip and a lot of those
steps were going up the escalators that
weren't working all right
and to go along with that is hey don't
forget to bring some good shoes too
because your your dog is going to be
barking when you're here with all this
walking okay so just have a heads up
and the thing is i'm getting so excited
talking about all these things
about vegas that i need to relax hey
y'all these are my friends
dave and tanya with turnip world and
they are vegas
gurus so they've got a couple really
great jokes for you too
all right all right first up don't
overdo it on the first day
save some of that money to have some fun
later on that's right y'all or you might
go
broke for sure be here but another
really good don't
i would say is hmm don't sleep in late
because you could really miss some great
breakfast as a matter of fact
right behind us is moon of agave which
is a really hot spot here as well as
egg swat over at the cosmopolitan really
great breakfast and if you sleep in
you just might miss it i would say don't
don't spend a lot of money on things
that you don't have to spend a lot of
money
there's a lot of things here that are
very cheap
so basically you don't have to spend a
lot of money to have fun
[Applause]
absolutely i like that
don't think you have to spend a lot of
money to have a lot of fun here because
you're right you don't
right behind us is the prime example
josh you nailed it
yay i'm learning see y'all
and i think another thing that people
miss out on is
don't think what happens in vegas stays
in vegas look
with social media you know arrest
records
people find out what you did when you
were here okay so if you're thinking
oh it's gonna be a fun part or not no
it's gonna know what happens
people always find out what happens in
vegas okay so don't let that old
marketing
slogan let you think you can be doing
anything and being crazy because yes
those arrest records will go with you
okay now another don't i have for you is
when you're walking on the strip
and you see people dressed up whether
it's mickey mouse or whether they're
dressed up
as the dancing girls or their deadpool
or spiderman or whoever
don't make eye contact okay because once
you make eye contact they're like oh did
you want to take a picture with me
and they'll come walking up and like get
a picture look
if you take a picture of them or you
take a picture with them you're gonna
have to pay them you got to give them
some money
and if you don't they can be pretty
jerky okay
so just make sure you realize that i
need to kind of avoid that
if you've got little kids they'll come
up to your kids hey kids don't you like
mickey mouse don't you like spiderman
just have a heads up for that all right
now the next thing i think you need to
know is when you are here and i talked
about your shoes and stuff like that but
don't underestimate the distance between
properties
here in vegas i mean these properties
are huge you're like oh well
mandalay bay is right by luxor which is
right by excalibur they're right there
together i'm like hey
it's still kind of a walk i mean you're
going to be doing a ton of walking
because it's so big
and it's cavernous inside so you'll walk
into the shops
of whatever place and you'll get lost
and finding the way out sometimes isn't
so easy so
don't be afraid to ask the personnel
working there
how you get out of an establishment or
how you get out of a casino
because it can be a bit hard okay and
when you are here
don't think that it's just gamble i mean
i don't gamble at all
i have lost all ten dollars i've bet and
we've been here a week okay
but we've had fun every single day doing
non-gambling things
if you're on the strip there's plenty of
non-gambling things to do
i mean we we do on the high roller it's
the big ferris wheel that's here that
was a fun thing to do
you could do zip lining there's so much
more than just gambling
when you're here and the thing is
whether you're on the strip or you're
going down to fremont street having the
fremont street experience
there's a lot to do that's not gambling
the neon museum which is really cool the
mob museum
the container city that's all down in
the downtown area where fremont street
is
you can go down there it's not just
gambling and the thing is
my next stone for you is don't just stay
on the strip but don't just stay in
vegas
go out and explore i mean i'm not
kidding you go out
i mean maybe a half hour drive maybe to
red rock canyon national conservation
area
it's a 13 mile scenic drive it's
gorgeous but there's tons of trails out
there you can go hike
and the thing is there's lots of trails
around here in the mountains it's
fantastic
you can go to valley of fire state park
which is north of the city
you can go there or you can go to lake
mead but of course
there's the most popular day trip from
here is go to hoover dam as well
there's so many things that's not on the
strip to see in this town
they're like my god look at all the
shopping that's not on this trip look at
all the fun stuff that's
not on here that's why if you're coming
with family you're coming with kids
this trip may be a day but there's so
much stuff not on the strip to enjoy
get out there because it's not just
gambling there's so much more to see and
do when you're here
because i know one of the favorite
things we did we went to boulder city
because we did
went to lake mead oh by the way don't
forget to bring water shoes if you go to
lake mead
remember it's just a filled up like
mountainy area canyon area so it's all
rocks and stuff
so make sure you don't forget some water
shoes you're there we went to lake me
then we did hoover dam and you could do
a tour there it was actually kind of
cool
uh and then we went to boulder city and
they had this thing called rail
explorers
where you like are on this like i don't
know train bike thing it was so much fun
and there's so much fun you can have
here
that's not on the strip that is not
gambling and you can have a really good
time so
that's where the really family like more
adventurous stuff can happen
because joss and i have been exploring
outside of the strip even though we're
staying on the strip
which yeah definitely stay on the strip
i'm just gonna say that okay so so have
a heads up but
it's been fun because that's one thing i
want you to do
is don't forget to let your hair down i
know sometimes we get worried when we go
places and we freak out about things and
but really vegas is people will tell you
it's the adult disney world
it really is an adult disney world okay
and if that's a cool thing for you
great have a great time when you're here
and the thing is though
you do need to pay attention to a few
things because with all the tourists are
here
don't forget all the scam stuff you need
to watch out for and all these things
but i have another video that's just on
the scams of vegas to help you know what
to look out for
but just know you can have a really good
time when you're in vegas whether you
like to gamble or you're like me and
don't like gambling at all you can still
have a fun time so
i hope this helps you know a bit more
about coming to vegas i actually had so
many don'ts we made two videos
