You Don't Need a License to Drive the Vegas Strip in an Open-Air Slingshot

You drive a three-wheeled Slingshot down the Las Vegas Strip, snap a photo at the Welcome sign, then cruise the Red Rock Scenic Byway for desert views and photo stops. The tour includes an automatic vehicle, BBQ lunch at Rick's Rollin Smokes, a visit to the Pawn Stars shop, and a guide. No motorcycle license is required, and the whole experience takes most of the day without leaving you exhausted.

The Experience

The moment you slide into that low-slung Polaris Slingshot seat on the Las Vegas Strip, you realize you're about to do something most people only watch other people do. No motorcycle endorsement required—these three-wheeled automatics handle like nothing else on the road, and the wind hits different when you're that close to the asphalt with the Bellagio and Caesars Palace towering overhead. You'll stop at the iconic "Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas" sign first, the one every visitor wants in their phone, and then the real ride begins.

From there, you head west toward Red Rock, and the desert opens up in a way the Strip never hints at. The Red Rock Scenic Byway unfolds with those rust-colored cliffs rising sharp against the sky—not inside the National Conservation Area itself, but close enough that you get the full panorama without the park fees and crowds. You're driving yourself (or riding as a passenger if you'd rather), which means you control the pace and can linger at the overlooks that catch your eye. The air changes temperature as you climb, and the light hits the rock faces differently every few minutes.

Lunch lands at Rick's Rollin Smokes BBQ, which is a solid break in the middle of the day—pulled pork, brisket, the kind of food that tastes better after three hours in the open air. Then comes the Pawn Stars shop, the actual Gold and Silver location from the TV show, which is either a must-see or a "why not, we're here" depending on how much you care about the series. Bottled water is included throughout, and the whole thing wraps before evening, so you're not wiped out for dinner.

You'll need a valid driver's license if you're behind the wheel, and the minimum age to drive is 21. If you're younger or prefer not to drive, you can ride as a passenger—kids as young as 5 can come along with a parent. Long pants and sleeves aren't mandatory, but the desert sun and wind make them smart. Tours run in all weather, so check the forecast and dress for it. The Slingshot has no weight limit; the Trike maxes out at 400 pounds combined, so confirm which vehicle you're getting when you book.
