| - I bought the Amazon Local deal for the Pool Party Tour and the Night Club Tour together. After buying I read the reviews on this page and became very skeptical. I called several times before speaking to a real person to book the tour after sending an email without response. Once I was able to get through I made our reservation for two for the pool tour on Thursday and the club tour Friday of our trip. They took my name and phone number, along with the voucher numbers, and that was that.
A few weeks before the trip I remembered the reviews I had read mentioning lost reservations and mistaken phone numbers and called again to confirm. I called from my work phone and they were able to read me back my cell number correctly, so I felt better about the reservation. I called one more time the day before the tour to be EXTRA SURE they had our info. Each time I called it took a few tries to get through but after they answered they were perfectly nice and courteous.
The day of the pool tour came and right on time came the text from our hostess, Roselin (sp?), telling us to meet her at Liquid Lounge at Aria, thankfully a short walk from our hotel and what was mentioned as the likely starting point. We got a bit confused as to where to go once we got to securty at the pool area of the hotel. We found two other people looking for the same tour and I texted Roselin, who quickly answered before the security guard asked if we were with Rockstar and told us where to go. We met up with our hostess and checked in. Seems each time I confirmed the reservation they took down another, because they asked if our party was 8! Hahaha, if only I knew I would've brought some friends. No harm done, and we got into the first pool no problem. As this is not a review of Liquid lounge itself (I posted a separate review for that) I will skip what happened inside.
At the appointed time we met our hostess again outside and we walked into the hotel, where she had us gather around (there were only 6 of us) for a little 'group prayer' which was odd but I understood when she said it's more effective and less cultish with a larger group.
We piled into the party bus where the lights blared, the music pumped and the drinks were poured. Seemed like they were giving us very weak Cuervo margarita stuff. Whatever, it was free and she was more on top of keeping our glasses full than if we were the only customer in a failing diner with a cup of water.
We got to our second location, the Vegas Sign. It was cool, because having not rented a car there would have been little other time when I would have gotten to see the sign. We quickly took pictures and were back on the bus again to the Palms Pool. Much nicer place, seemingly reserved for the patrons of the hotel. We were left there, half a mile from the strip, which was a bit annoying...
Cut to the next night, for the Night Club tour!
Despite saying beforehand we would be starting at Aria again, when I was texted the night's itenerary, it said to meet at Mirage. 3/4 mile later I got a second message saying to meet at Aria. I texted Roselin back and she cleared up the confusion and we met at Aria as planned. Minor speed bump, at least she was responsive.
We met outside of Gold Lounge at Aria and were given 2 for 1 drink passes for the lounge. Good thing because everything there was stupidly expensive. After that we all walked to Haze nightclub downstairs and the fun began. After Haze we were whisked to the party bus where plenty of different drinks were tossed at us in quick succession. Seems Roselin knows how short the bus trip is and wants everyone to get their money's worth. We stumbled out of the bus at Luxor to go to LAX, which was fun, before boarding the bus one last time to go to Chateau at Paris, definitely the best club of the night, from the blurry images both in my head and on my camera afterwards.
TL,DR: A good service for people like me who haven't the slightest idea what clubs to go to in Las Vegas and want a little taste of everything. Make extra sure to be super vigilant about the reservations and be sure to speak to an actual person: incredulousness is your friend. Also, request Roselin, she was fun!
