Las Vegas Tram Map: Every Free Strip Tram and Stop in 2026

The Las Vegas Tram Map

Map: Vegas411

North is up. The map is schematic, so it shows what connects to what, not how far apart the stops are.

Two things worth reading off it before you plan anything. First, every free tram sits on the west side of the Strip, and each one only links resorts under the same ownership — they are hotel shuttles, not a transit network, so there is no free tram ride from one end of the Strip to the other. Second, the Monorail is on the east side, it costs money, and it runs behind the resorts rather than along Las Vegas Boulevard.

Nothing on this map goes to the airport.

Aria Express: Bellagio to Park MGM

The Aria Express is the most useful free tram on the Strip, and the one people most often ride wrong. It has three stations: Bellagio at the north end (the entrance is at the back of the resort, and it is the stop you want for Vdara), The Shops at Crystals in the middle (this is your stop for Aria and the Waldorf Astoria), and Park MGM at the south end, which puts you a short indoor walk from Aria's south entrance and within a few minutes of T-Mobile Arena.

The part nobody tells you: it is not one line. It is two separate shuttle trains sharing the Crystals station — one runs Bellagio to Crystals, the other runs Crystals to Park MGM. If you are going the full length, you get off at Crystals and get on the other train. End to end with the change takes six to eight minutes, which is still faster than the walk and considerably better than the walk in July.

It runs 8 a.m. to 2 a.m. daily and it is genuinely free — no room key, no ticket, nobody checks anything. Hours sometimes stretch later for Golden Knights games and T-Mobile Arena concerts. The trains are elevated, cable-driven, wheelchair accessible and have room for strollers, and each one holds about 130 people, which matters on a Saturday night when a show at Park Theater lets out.

Mandalay Bay Tram: Excalibur, Luxor, Mandalay Bay

At the south end of the Strip, one free tram connects Excalibur, Luxor and Mandalay Bay. It runs 10 a.m. to midnight daily, it is free, and the Excalibur station is right at the Strip, which makes it the easiest of the three to find.

The catch is the direction. There are two parallel tracks running different services. Heading north from Mandalay Bay, the tram stops at Luxor and then Excalibur. Heading south from Excalibur, the express track skips Luxor entirely and runs straight to Mandalay Bay. So if you board at Excalibur intending to get off at Luxor, check which platform you are on — otherwise you will end up at Mandalay Bay and have to ride back.

There is a better option for that specific trip anyway: Excalibur, Luxor and Mandalay Bay are all connected by an air-conditioned indoor walkway with moving sidewalks. Excalibur to Luxor on foot is about five minutes and you never step outside.

One correction worth making, because half the internet gets it wrong: this is not an aerial tramway. It is an elevated, cable-driven people mover — the same Doppelmayr system as the Aria Express — so it is fully wheelchair accessible and it does not stop running in wind.

The Treasure Island–Mirage Tram Is Closed

If you have read an older guide — including the earlier version of this one — you may be expecting a free tram between Treasure Island and The Mirage. It is not running.

The tram shut down in mid-2024, just before The Mirage closed for its conversion into Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Las Vegas and the Guitar Hotel. The old station at Treasure Island is behind a wall. Hard Rock is scheduled to open in 2027, and the jointly-operated tram is expected to resume service when it does.

Until then, that stretch is a walk. Treasure Island to the former Mirage site along the Strip is roughly ten minutes, and there is no free tram anywhere on the north or central Strip — not at the Venetian, not at Wynn, not at Fashion Show.

Las Vegas Monorail: The One You Pay For

The Las Vegas Monorail is the one that costs money, and it is the one most people picture when they search for a Las Vegas tram map. It is a 3.9-mile line with seven stations, all on the east side of the Strip, running behind the resorts rather than along Las Vegas Boulevard. From north to south: SAHARA Las Vegas, Westgate, Convention Center (the Boingo station, at the LVCC), Harrah's & The LINQ, Flamingo & Caesars Palace, Horseshoe & Paris, and MGM Grand.

Discounts are online only — paper tickets bought at the station are full price. Nevada residents ride for $1 with valid ID, which is the best deal in this entire article, and children five and under are free. Day passes start counting from the moment you first tap through the gate, not from midnight.

Hours: 7 a.m. daily, closing at midnight on Monday, 2 a.m. Tuesday through Thursday, and 3 a.m. Friday through Sunday.

Whether it is worth $15 depends entirely on where you are staying. If your hotel is on the east side and you are going to the Convention Center, it is excellent. If you are staying at Bellagio, the nearest station is a long walk through Caesars Palace, and by the time you have made it you could have walked most of the way to where you were going. We have a fuller breakdown in our guide to the Las Vegas Monorail.

The Other Las Vegas Trams: Inside Harry Reid Airport

There is one more set of trams in Las Vegas, and a fair number of people searching for "Las Vegas tram" actually mean these: the automated trams inside Harry Reid International Airport. There are three, and they are colour-coded.

• Green line — Terminal 1 to the C gates.
• Blue line — Terminal 1 to the D gates.
• Red line — Terminal 3 to the D gates.

Concourse D is a satellite building with no landside entrance, so if you are flying out of a D gate, the tram is not optional. They run continuously and take a couple of minutes. Build ten minutes into your connection for the ride and the walk at both ends.

What the airport trams do not do is leave the airport. There is no rail link of any kind between Harry Reid and the Strip.

Where the Trams Will Not Take You

The trams cover the south and central Strip and nothing else. Specifically, there is no tram service at the Venetian, Wynn or Encore, Fashion Show, Circus Circus, Resorts World or Sahara, and none of the three free trams crosses Las Vegas Boulevard.

For everything the trams miss, you have three options. The Deuce bus runs the full length of the Strip 24 hours a day and costs a few dollars for a pass. The Vegas Loop covers the Convention Center and a growing list of resorts. Or you walk — and the reason people search for this map in the first place is that a day on the Strip runs 20,000 to 40,000 steps, and the distances between resorts are much longer than they look from a hotel window.
