It's stacked with expert advice from locals on what to eat, where to drink, and what to do. As you may have noticed, Las Vegas is drowning in strip clubs. It's what makes this desert town an oasis for bachelor parties and trade shows. Some venerable institutions have been around for decades like Cheetahs and Palomino Club ; others have sadly shut their doors in recent months like Olympic Gardens and Club Paradise.
Now, you may find yourself wondering, Why are all these strip clubs topless only? How much skin you want to see depends on how much you want to imbibe. For a full breakdown on the best strip clubs in town, check out our strip club guide. Some advice: Never take a taxi to a strip club. Clubs tend to offer kickbacks to cabbies who bring passengers to their venue. However, you'll definitely be charged a cover to make up for what the cabbie gets paid.
Most clubs offer some form of free limo service that will pick you up from pretty much any hotel on the Strip or Downtown -- and drop the cover as a courtesy.
Book it. Use it. And get in for free. Also, stick to cash. Know how much you're willing to spend and set aside that money in advance. Las Vegas is littered with stories about guys at strip clubs who pulled out a credit card after a few drinks -- and woke up the next day in deep shame and befuddlement. Dancers can be very persuasive -- some will flat out take advantage of you -- charging your card for extra dances and drinks or even when another girl wanders over to join in on the fun.
To repeat, get your cash together in advance. Most strip clubs have ATMs but they come with sky-high service charges. Oh yeah. Don't wear white pants. One of the most low-pressure, guilt-free ways to see some nudity in Vegas if you're over 21, of course is at a cabaret -- or topless show. Sadly, the trend appears to be dying out a bit; recent closures include Pin Up starring former Playmate of the Year Claire Sinclair and Jubilee , a classic showgirls revue that was the longest running show on the Strip at the time it finished up.
