Q:
How far is it from one end of the Strip to the other, with some mileages between casinos in between and over to places like the Las Vegas Hilton and Hard Rock?
A:
Starting from Mandalay Bay/Four Seasons, it's:
- a half-mile to Excalibur at the corner of Tropicana Avenue. Add a few hundred yards for MGM Grand, New York-New York, and the Tropicana. Add a quarter-mile to Monte Carlo.
- one mile-plus to Aladdin at Harmon Avenue. Add a few hundred yards to Paris-Las Vegas. From Planet Hollywood, it's another mile or so to the Hard Rock on Paradise Road.
- 1.5 miles to Bellagio.
- two miles to between the Mirage and TI. That's right: It's a half-mile to walk past Caesars Palace and Mirage. On the other side of the Strip, it's a half-mile from Barbary Coast past the Flamingo, Imperial Palace, Harrah's, and Casino Royale.
- 2.5 miles to Wynn Las Vegas.
- three miles to the Riviera. Add another couple hundred yards to Circus Circus. Over to the Convention Center and the Hilton is another half-mile-plus.
- 3.5 miles to the Sahara.
- four full miles to Stratosphere

Oops! Thanks to the reader who pointed out our deliberate mistake: It's only about one mile from Planet Hollywood to the Hard Rock, so more walkable than the two miles we originally indicated.
