    I would say that's pretty cheap. Not sure how long you need the car for, depends on the time of year. If your looking for a strip tour that just drives you from the north end down or south strip up, you could get a limo for 2 hours.


    Stretch Limo (6 passengers max) – $286.30 – gratuity included
    Super Stretch Limo (8 passengers max) – $353.50 – gratuity included
    Stretch SUV Cadillac Escalade (12 passengers max) – $500.50 – gratuity included
    Stretch SUV H2 Hummer (14 passengers max) – $542.50 – gratuity included
    Limo Coach (20 passengers max) – $521.50 – gratuity included

    TOUR STOPS

    Pick up time will be 7pm or 8pm from the front entrance of any strip or downtown hotel.
    ~Las Vegas Sign – Photo Op
    ~Fountains of Bellagio – water, music & light show
    ~Sirens of T.I. – Live Theatrical Show
    ~Mirage Volcano – Eruption & Tropical Gardens
    ~Fremont Street Experience – Laser Light & Sound Show

    I give a huge thumbs up to Presidential, it's the first, last and only one for us! I've used a limo all over for work and by far Presidential is the best. I don't know if it's good etiquette to recommend a driver but I will anyway.

    Wilson A. Best driver ever! Prompt,courteous and professional! You need it he can get you there. It doesn't hurt that he is some eye candy for the girl you bring LOL.

    I recommend that if it's going to be a regular thing build a relationship with your driver. We have done that with Wilson, we touch down he loads and knows where our first stop is now that is service!

    One thing I've found with limo service is the cheapest isn't always the best deal. I've been in some really run down limo's with basically cab drivers piloting them. You will get what you pay for, In my opinion Presidential and the service they provide for $135 + tip is a bargain.

    Before I went to work with Presidential I looked at every company in town. 6 year old limos with sharpie to cover dents and scratches. No seat belts, windows didn't work and drivers that went from point A to B like a taxi. Plus all of Pres drivers smell nice and wear tuxedos. That's why I use them still

    I'm going to do the presidential limo w/champagne on the next trip. Whats the proper time frame before the trip that I should book? Is $20 the normal tip?

    All went smooth with Presidential. Driver was waiting in baggage claim, bottle of champagne. Was on time picking up at hotel. They sent an email 24 hours before and also about an hour before with the drivers cell number. Highly recommended.

    A huge thumbs up for Presidential. I always use them and my GF loves the champagne and rose waiting for us in the car. I consider it to be a very reasonable value.

    The limo guy meets you, gets your bags, ... makes whatever side trips you suggest, such as to liquor stores, .... and you can relax in style. Whether you've reserved it or the casino has the situation can vary.

    If you've arranged it a tip is usually included in the billing. If the casino arranged it, you should tip the driver since his company is not doing it. The casino flat rates their limousines based on total number of hours that month. So if the driver has been particularly helpful, tip him generously.

    Ofcourse if going to a Gentlemen's Club, its usually all free.
