About This Video

We’re still in Las Vegas, and in this video we take you up on the High Roller at The LINQ to answer the big budget-traveller question: is it actually worth the money? We show you what it’s like from the moment you go in (bag check, the whole photo/green-screen setup) to what the pods are really like inside—calm, air conditioned, and big enough to walk around while you take photos and check out the little landmark displays. Up top, the views are genuinely unreal. The wheel takes about 25–30 minutes for a full rotation, so you’ve got loads of time to soak up the Strip, spot your hotel, and even see Mount Charleston in the distance with snow on it (which is mad when it’s still 40+ degrees down below). We also break down the pricing we saw—day vs night tickets, plus the happy hour option—and share how we’d do it cheaper (book online in advance or use an attraction pass like Go City). For us, booking online meant we paid about $19, and we’d say it’s well worth doing—especially if you want a more sedate, different perspective compared to something like a helicopter ride.
