RLT Tip #1: If you are
not staying at one of the drop off locations check to
see which property is closest to where you'll be staying.
If you are staying out of the downtown area get dropped
off at Lakeside so you don't have to sit on the bus for
another 45 minutes while it drops off at the other locations.
Catch a cab or use "Blue Go" public transit
to get to your final destination. |

RLT Tip #2: Taking the
bus makes sense if you are a small group, but larger groups
would actually save money by reserving a private shuttle
for your group. Private shuttle suggestions below. |
