In years past you would have to park and run across the street to get in the center median for your photo with the sign. Recently Las Vegas added parking in the center median to make it safer. You can only access the parking when driving south. When driving north there isn't a turn off for the parking.

This is one of those iconic things you have to stop at if you ever come to Vegas. This is a tourist town... be a tourist. Go to the sign, take some pictures, prove you've been there. Yes, it's just a sign - it's not going to get up and sing and dance - but it's THE sign. There will... More

I have a tattoo of the sign, funnily enough I got it after my first visit to Las Vegas and it took 3 visits to get to the real thing! Well worth the wait! If you are planning on seeing the iconic sign the make your way to Excalibur and jump the free tram to Mandalay bay, it's about a... More

For the amount of time it takes to go to this iconic sign you have to find the time on your trip. It's easy to get to but get there early as the crowds soon form. Everyone seems to be respectful and wait in turn. Elvis is awesome and made it so worthwhile. Hound dog!!!

Also got a pic with Elvis.Both the volunteer and Elvis both seemed genuinely grateful when I gave them both a dollar for the pics.Lineup moves... More

Located about a mile south of Mandalay Bay, it's easily accessible, both by foot and car. There's a little (free) parking lot available, but it's walkable. We went there once in the morning, and then again in the evening to see it lit up, and walked both times, even after walking up and down the Strip all day. There's usually... More
