Golf Course Transportation Study
Make certain you understand the true cost and distance to get from your hotel to the various great golfing Las Vegas has to offer. Distance and time are very relative phrases out here in the West. “As the crow flies,” is often not a representative barometer to get from point A to point B.
The absolutely closest golf course to the center Strip is Bali Hai. It is less than 5 miles round-trip from the corner of Flamingo and Las Vegas Boulevard and the average round-trip taxi fare is around $19. Our furthest course is Royal Links, which is 17.4 miles round-trip from center Strip and averages about $41 for a round-trip taxi fare. This compares to over 50 miles round-trip to courses in Henderson, the State line or north on US 95. Round-trip taxi fares can run upwards of $100 and more.
And you should also consider traveling time.
Our courses are four of the closest five to the center Strip area; therefore you spend more time driving the fairways and less time riding the highways. For a course-by-course review of transportation costs and mileage direct your attention to the independent study below.
