Real all-in estimate for 2 travelers over 4 days — including every fee most people forget to budget for.
Las Vegas is the resort fee capital of America. Hotels advertise $40/night rooms then charge $40–$50/night in mandatory resort fees on top — for amenities like the pool and Wi-Fi you may never use. Budget the resort fee as part of the room rate, not as a surprise at checkout.

Practical ways to cut your actual trip cost
Resort fees on the Strip are non-negotiable (usually $35–$55/night) but off-Strip hotels like the Palms, Rio, or downtown Fremont Street properties often charge less or none at all.
Las Vegas shows, clubs, and restaurants can be extremely expensive. Set a firm entertainment budget before you arrive — the city is engineered to make you spend more than planned.
The Las Vegas Monorail and free tram systems on the Strip can replace expensive Ubers for getting between major casino hotels. Walking is also surprisingly viable between neighboring properties.
Most credit cards charge 2–3% on every international purchase. On a $2,210 trip, that's real money. A no-fee travel card costs nothing extra per transaction and often comes with a sign-up bonus worth $500+.
