Re: [QUAD-L] vegas vacation
The cabs are very accessible, they are mini vans and they just throw ya in the back, no lock down needed.

The streets of Vegas can be narrow with all the traffic and construction going on, so plan on taking the overhead train. I know they have one taxi but I also think they have several cabs that are accessible, if needed. What month are you going? Best Wishes In a message dated 3/19/2013 5:16:38 P.M.

Re: [QUAD-L] vegas vacation
That Vegas Tram only goes to a few of the hotels, but it's a good option for easy travel [although it seemed a bit pricey to me.] If you're staying on the Strip and don't plan to go anywhere off the Strip you can get around just fine taking an accessible cab from the airport to your hotel and then just walking [rolling] up and down the Strip. There are so many things to see along the street you will not get bored. You can catch an accessible cab at any of the big hotels. Just look for the taxi line in front of the main entrance. Go to the front of the line and let them know you need an accessible cab, as you'll get priority. Kind of like going to the front of the line at Disneyland. A few free things you should see: Fremont Street [the old downtown strip] Bellagio dancing fountains Treasure Island pirate battle Talk to your hotel's concierge to get special deals and learn about other happenings you shouldn't miss. If you plan to see shows be sure to get tickets ahead of time. If you want to eat at specific restaurants call and make reservations the day before. Have fun!!
