What do you think of my Vegas plan?

[jimfizz]

Hi all

After hours of amazing research on this site, I'd love some feedback on my plan for me and 5 male mates at the end of this month.

We fly in on Saturday 30th March from London and leave on Wednesday 3rd April. We are staying at Planet Hollywood.

Saturday 30th March:
Pure

Sunday 31st March:
Wet Republic
XS

Monday 1st April:
Catch up on sleep and see some of Vegas away from the bottom of a bottle!
Marquee

Tuesday 2nd April
Golf or helicopter trip to the Canyon
1OAK

Now a few questions...

Bottle Service: What would the minimum spends be for each of these nights? As we may not be able to do BS on all nights, which do you suggest? Any ideas on deals etc.
Tipping: I know we have to tip hosts but we're far from being regular visitors. What is an acceptable amount to tip?

Minimums will be around $1k (2 bottles) most places/nights for 6 males.

Monday - Marquee might be $700 minimum with its reduced Monday pricing.
Tuesday - You might be able to get a b2g1 at 1OAK. Joey Orr usually hooks people up pretty well on here.

Just wondering why you want to do Pure on Saturday?

Don't bother with bottles at Wet Republic, but it's up to you which nights you want to do it.

Tipping is entirely up to you - just depends on how important a good table is to you.

Re. Pure, I got the impression that all clubs will be packed on a Saturday so a tier 2 club may be slightly cheaper. Also, most of us are totally new to Vegas and the view might kick the trip off with a bang. Obviously, open to suggestions!

jimfizz-
I would watch for the Wet Republic, Encore Beach Club and March 31 xs talent announcements.
3/30 Eric Prydz is playing surrender
4/1 Gareth Emery is playing Marquee- he is from England

Since your coming from far away- You should stop by the Grand Canyon. It will be something you will always remember.
Keep in mind there is the Grand Canyon South rim and West Rim.
The South Rim views are the classic Grand Canyon views.
I have done this South Rim bus tour before:
http://www.grandcanyontours.com/bussouth.html
Its $80 a person flat including lunch- it eats up most of a day 7:15pm-9:30pm. But is good if you have nothing to do or want a rest day. Also it leaves from Planet Hollywood.
In terms of Helicopter your probably looking at like $250 each to the West Rim for a quick fly over.

Not sure how adventurous you are but you could rent a car for about $25 a day and drive to the South Rim (4 hours each way) and pay the $25 entrance fee (covers all 5) Only if one of you is sober!

Also not sure if your interested in seeing LA, Hollywood, Santa Monica but that's a four hour drive each way.

Maybe:
3/30 Wet/EBC/Surrender
3/31 Wet/EBC/XS
4/1 Grand Canyon trip / Marquee
4/2 Grand Ganyon/ LA trip?

Might throw in a Free limo ride/entry strip club one night.

If getting budget bottle service is your goal, then your plan is an A+!

I think you picked good spots as well. Contact Thomas for a deal at Pure (b2g1 or b1g1). He'll probably be able to package an even better deal if you book for Pure and Wet Republic. And you'll get good deals at 1OAK, xS, and Marquee on those respective days.

As far as tipping goes, I tip base the amount on how much the host can help me out in terms of minimums, comps, and table locations. Also communication is a big factor with me as well.

Fair enough. Alternatively, you can do presales for the (expensive) Saturday night at a Tier 1 (personally Prydz @ Surrender for me would be a no-brainer) and then do bottle service at XS/Marquee/1OAK the other nights (which will be cheaper).

Three, 2:30ish if you drive with a bit of courage.

I too was wondering why Pure on a Saturday. I understand that you want somewhere you'd be able to have fun and kick off the trip right. Honestly there are never days where vegas isn't happening. But the weekends are the best days aside from Industry Nights. I would honestly ditch the T2 Clubs and hit a T1, especially if you want to start the trip out right. I've never been to Wet Republic so I can't say anything about it. I've been to Tao Beach (better than its sister nightclub) and Marquee day and they were both great.
