When To Visit Las Vegas

Las Vegas. When is the best time to visit? Well, it’s complicated. Do you like the summer sun and heat? Do you prefer it more mild? How do you handle large crowds? Here at St. George Express we have our own opinions. However, we hope that this article provides a good blueprint for when to visit a place like Las Vegas based on what you value.

Best Time To Visit Las Vegas If You Like The Sun & Heat

June through August. This might seem like an easy and obvious answer. But hear us out. While the average temperatures in the mid-100s can be a lot to handle, Las Vegas understands how to combat this. If you’ve never walked the strip before don’t be afraid. You can actually walk a good portion (if not the majority) of the strip inside the hotels and casinos. You’ll often just have short walks outside to cross the streets between each property.

Now, if you enjoy laying out by the pool or a makeshift beach somewhere, this is perfect for you. You don’t exert too much energy getting from point A to B. This isn’t a trip to the beach in southern California where you need to battle for a parking spot and then walk a good distance just to enjoy the beach and the sun. No. In Las Vegas you can walk right out to your hotel’s pool, grab a chaise lounge, and sip your cool beverage. Is it still blazing hot? Sure. But you didn’t get all dirty and sweaty just to get to your destination. You can soak up all that vitamin D and then dip yourself into the cool pool if you find that you’re overheating.

Another great bonus for visiting Las Vegas this time of year is for the crowds. A lot of people want to visit in the more temperate or mild months, opening up the peak heat of summer just for you. But we’ll get into that later on.

Best Time To Visit If You DON’T Like The Heat

March to May and September through November. There’s a trade off here. With average temps ranging from the mid-60s to the upper-80s, this is a prime time to visit Vegas. And everyone else has the same idea. These months often hold the highest amount of work conferences and trade shows. This brings a high volume of visitors to the area. They can be corporate stiffs or families on vacation. Everyone wants to escape for a long weekend in Sin City.

This isn’t necessarily a bad time to visit. Because again, the weather is so moderate and nice that it makes dealing with bigger crowds worth it. Airfare is typically just a touch more pricey during these months but still manageable. Las Vegas continues to be one of the better destinations to fly into.

Best Time To Visit If You REALLY DON’T Like The Heat

December through February. I’m not sure that we really need to dive into this one too deeply. It can actually get moderately “cool” during December and January in Vegas. Average temps are in the upper-50s. However, if you’re looking to escape the frozen tundra of places like Idaho or Montana, this will feel like a welcome relief.

Busiest Times In Las Vegas

According to Vegas Unzipped, there are certain events that consistently bring in massive crowds to the area. These include major sporting events like the Super Bowl, March Madness, or NFR (National Finals Rodeo). There are also a few holidays that you might want to avoid if you don’t like big crowds. Check out the full list here.

Best Way To Get Around

We might be a touch biased, but we’re pretty sure there’s no better way than using St. George Express. If you don’t want to have to worry about putting the wear and tear on your own vehicle or dealing with the rental car process, then we are the solution you’re looking for.

How Las Vegas Shuttles are Changing Travel

Chances are when you think of a shuttle company, you probably think about hitching a ride to the airport. Airport buses are definitely a large part of a shuttle company’s business. There is a high demand for convenient and cheap travel to and from the airport. But many Las Vegas shuttles are more than just buses to and from the airport, offering many different benefits to travelers. That is why we believe that Las Vegas Shuttles are changing and improving the local travel industry for the better.

St. George Express has helped customers reach their destinations for over eight years now. In that time we have learned a lot about travel and how to get it right for our customers. As we have merged with other companies, we have seen our fleet grow and routes increase. We are pleased to be serving customers in Las Vegas and many other areas along I-15.

The benefits of using Las Vegas Shuttles

We all know the benefits of catching a shuttle to the airport. You can skip the hassle and cost of parking and the risk of leaving your vehicle unattended in a lot. Not only that, but a shuttle will conveniently deliver you right where you need to be at the airport. But that is only the beginning of the value we can offer our customers. There are a lot of reasons why you might want to charter a bus, whether it is to make a day trip to a nearby city, to visit family or friends, or to get your kid to college. We understand that travel can be a stressful time, and that is why we do everything we can to improve the experience. We get you to where you need to be so that you can relax and just enjoy your trip.

What we are doing to better serve your travel needs

Just call us up to a day in advance and we can transfer your ticket to a better departure time. Our office is always open (except Christmas and Thanksgiving, because we aren’t The Grinch) to answer your questions, address your concerns, help coordinate your shuttle times, and do what we can to make your trip the best experience Las Vegas shuttles can provide.
