The Down Low on Club Crawls in Las Vegas
With the arrival of Spring Breakers in Las Vegas, one of the most popular ways to experience Vegas like a VIP, but on a budget, is to partake in a Sin City favorite pastime: the Club Crawl.
That's right party people, it's the best of both worlds with a good, ole-fashioned Las Vegas Party Bus Club Crawl. The first time I ever experienced a club crawl was in Mexico at the tender age of 17, but it was Mexico and it didn't really matter back then. However, that Mexican-inspired Club Crawl had nothing on a Vegas Club Crawl where you will experience a straight up wild night that is truly worth remembering, although if you do it right, you won't remember some parts of your night (thank you free booze on the bus).
If you're thinking of grabbing your friends for a Vegas Club Crawl, then here is what you'll need to know to make sure you have an epic time, get the best deal, get into the club and make it back on the bus after each club.
Picking A Club Crawl
First things first, you need to find the perfect club crawl to fit your needs. Are you a bachelor or bachelorette party? Do you just want to hang with your wolf pack of guys? Would you like to get crazy with the girls?
If you've got a group of guys looking to experience the clubs as well as a gentlemen's club while in Vegas, some of the Club Crawls offer the option to skip the last nightclub venue and take a different bus to a gentlemen's club. When you're booking your experience, be sure to ask if this is an option. For all the ladies out there, it can be quite an enjoyable experience to get a custom tailored club crawl in which you check out a club or two as well as an all-male revue. These are more difficult to come by, but if you aren't seeing what you want, just ask!
Heads up, when you book a Club Crawl you're going to get into some very good clubs, but not the A-listers with Calvin Harris spinning and Eva Mendes chillin' in the corner at a private table poppin' bottles. If this is the experience you're looking for, then click here to get bottle service because a Club Crawl is not exactly that. So what do you get with a Club Crawl?
The Club Crawl Experience
A Club Crawl is like experiencing Vegas nightlife on steroids. The night starts out kinda slow as you meet with anywhere from 50 to 150 people at a centralized meeting place. From there you march to a fleet of party buses where you hop on with your friends, and quite a few soon-to-be-friends. The hosts of each party bus get the music pumping, start pouring shots and get the group rowdy.
You usually make approximately three stops on your Club Crawl experience. Sometimes you get a fourth stop at the Welcome to Las Vegas visitor's sign. But you'll definitely not see four nightclub venues, trust me, you'll barely be standing when you head to the third venue, so four is just overkill.
Club Crawl Dress Code Guide
While you may think that a Club Crawl is an excuse to dress down a little bit, this is not the case. You're still headed to a few nightclubs, which means there are even more reasons to dress up because there are additional chances that security won't like what you're wearing.
Ladies: We all know going to the club is an excuse to get a new outfit, so don't skimp on this opportunity and look your best!
Guys: There are more 'don't' items on the list of what to wear than there are 'do's' -- just keep in mind that you need to avoid jeans, anything scrubby and baseball hats. For a more detailed list, check out this Las Vegas Nightclub Dress Code Guide.
Tips & Tricks For Your Club Crawl
Okay, folks, there's nothing worse than missing the bus departure time and thus getting stuck at one club when you were hoping for more. So, with that said, the most important thing for you to remember is to keep track of time. It's kind of a daunting task when you think about it: keep track of time when you're drinking and having the time of your life. However, it is important, otherwise it's on you if you miss the bus. Now, it's one thing if you get to your first club and chat up that hottie that you don't really want to leave behind to go to the next club. You can decide to depart the party bus at anytime, but you're responsible for getting back to your hotel. No refunds are ever given because you missed the bus. Whether you wanted to or not.
The next best tip you'll want to keep track of is to pace the booze. You will be out all night long. We're talking “hair-of-the-dog breakfast” during sunrise if you hang in through the whole night, so pace yourself. For one reason, you'll have a better time if you avoid the initial binge drinking and for another reason, you won't get into the clubs if you are too drunk, plus I'm not too sure, but I'm pretty confident if you throw up on the party bus everyone will hate you and you'll be peer pressured off of the bus. So, keep it together man, you've got hours of partying to get through.
