Signature at MGM Grand.

which are less expensive than the
hotels along the Strip.

Uber and Lyft.

which is probably the most
convenient way to get around the
Strip, or the Deuce bus which
operates 24/7 to go up and down
the Strip and the Fremont Street

also trams you can ride on for free
to go between some hotels.
