Are there tickets that include a guided tour of the High Roller and is it worth it?
The main attraction of the Ferris wheel is the 30-minute ride that allows you to see all points of the city, so there are no guided tours of the High Roller, although some tours of The Strip or Fremont Street include a walk along the boulevard of the Ferris wheel to get a closer look at its dimensions.
As with tours of the Stratosphere Tower, the High Roller is used as a vantage point from which to see the city from above and is certainly worth seeing the Las Vegas skyline.
The 30-minute High Roller ride also includes a tour of the history of the sites that can be seen from the windows of the cabins, such as the Bellagio Fountains, the Eiffel Tower, the Pyramids or the best museums in the city, from screens located in each viewpoint.

Why is it worth buying tickets online instead of at the ticket office?
The High Roller is one of the most visited attractions in the city, so if you are planning to travel to Las Vegas in December or in the high season months I advise you to buy your tickets in advance.
This way you will avoid being sold out or that they are not available for the exact day you plan to take the ride.
Tickets are also usually cheaper if you buy them in advance online and you will also avoid long queues at the ticket office, especially on clear days, when the Ferris wheel attracts the most visitors.
The ride lasts 30 minutes, so you can take the ride at any time during your itinerary, but by purchasing your tickets in advance you can organise a tour of the city and make the most of your visit to the High Roller for a tour of The Strip or Fremont Street.
High Roller Ferris Wheel Opening Hours
The Ferris wheel is open daily from 2:00 p.m. to 0:00 a.m., making it easy to combine your visit to the High Roller with other nearby attractions, such as the Planet Hollywood shows in Las Vegas or the city's food tours.click here
Opening hours are the same throughout the seasons. Passes from 2pm to 4pm are considered daytime, while 4pm to midnight will apply for the nighttime rate.
How much time do you need to visit the High Roller Ferris Wheel?
The ride on the High Roller takes 30 minutes and its location on The Linq, in the heart of The Strip, ensures that you can easily access it from downtown and the surrounding area if you are using public transport or the city's tour buses.
If you bought your tickets in advance, access is quick. It might only take a while if you have to wait at the ticket office to buy your tickets and then queue to get on the Ferris wheel.
When is the best time to visit the High Roller Ferris Wheel?
The answer depends on the view you want to get. If you want to see the vastness of the city and its surroundings, the best time is during the day, as long as the weather is clear so you don't miss anything, especially if you are visiting Las Vegas in January or during the wetter months.
If you prefer to see the city lit up from above, the best time is at night, when you can see the neon lights of the casinos and hotels as well as the Las Vegas buildings.
If you choose to take the night tour, I advise you to stand on the right side of the cabins, which are the ones that face The Strip, where you'll find the best illuminations in the city.
If you decide to stay in Linq after your visit, you can dine at the local restaurants or visit some of the famous bars in the area.
How to get to the High Roller?
From downtown Las Vegas you can take the Paradise Monorail to Harrah's Station, the Deuce bus to Mirage Station or the 113 and 108 bus combined with the monorail.
You can also use the Las Vegas hop on-hop off tour bus services which have a stop at Linq and if you choose to go in a rental car there is parking available next to the High Roller Ferris wheel ticket booth.
Tips for visiting the High Roller Ferris Wheel
The High Roller is one of the most interesting attractions in Las Vegas, so once you've settled into the cabin for the ride, you'll be treated to 30 minutes of the best views of the city and the history of the buildings you'll see through the window, which you'll be able to see on the screens at each viewing platform.
To optimise the experience, if you don't buy the ticket that includes the open bar, I advise you to buy a drink to consume during the tour.
If you choose a daytime ride, it is preferable to stand on the right side of the booths, which is the side facing The Strip, so you will have the best views. This is also convenient on daytime rides, as this is where you'll find the best lighting in the city.
Before or after your walk, you can enjoy a shopping tour of Linq, The Strip or Fremont Street, where you'll also find places to have lunch, dinner or a drink at a bar.
