My 2026 New Year's Resolution is to walk the equivalent of US 1 from the Fort Kent, Main/ Canada Border to Miami, Florida. To accomplish this goal I will be hiking and taking long walks. Additionally there will be times where I have to give my car frequent rest. While it gets its rest I will be walking greater distances with the assistance of the C.A.T. buses. The South Strip Transfer Center (abbreviated SSTC from this point forward) plays a role in achieving this goal. This is a relatively realistic goal to meet taking into consideration that my residence is close to a major local route. The SSTC is located in an area that has the environment of a business park. It is south of Harry Reid International Airport and the Las Vegas Strip and a short walk from the Rental Car Facility. It provides connections to local routes including the 212: Sunset Road, 217: Warm Springs Road, 104: Valley View Road, 109: Maryland Parkway, and 117: S. Las Vegas Boulevard. It also connects with the Las Vegas Strip via the Duece and Harry Reid International Airport via the 109. Lately I have used this facility three times. In September, I used it with a local route that connected me to SSTC and the 109 to Harry Reid International Airport. I admit that it isn't the funnest thing to wheel a suitcase across a major intersection then wait by a busy road for the bus and wait again at the terminal for another. However, this saved me $20 each way and the bus stop was at Level Zero right by the ticket counter and baggage claim. This was a closer walk and less of a wait for a ride share. Recently I did a long walk to the facility although there were contiguous bus stops for a local route along the highway. From the facility I took the 117 to the South Point. Before I ever set foot in the SSTC, I had the perception that it would be grimy. However when I have visited here, it has been a clean facility with an active security presence. I have seen no graffiti and vandalism. When I looked on top of the bay a camera was keeping an eye on me. This creates a perception of safety. Apparently many other people feel safe here. The SSTC is attached to a parking lot. Apparently many people use it as a free alternative to the Harry Reid International Airport long term parking. There is even a form to fill out to inform security. If there was a feeling of safety concerns, I do not feel that people would leave their car here for up to seven days. I feel the need for improvement with ticketing at the customer service. Speaking of ticketing a bus ride on a local route costs $2 and an all day pass that includes the Duece costs $5. The problem that I found out from the mouth of an Agent is that you cannot purchase tickets at the counter. This is a flaw considering that places like Albertsons sell them. Apparently you can buy them on the bus. This is unhelpful when you do not have direct change or have questions with payment methods. This is definitely a flaw. As I write this, I would like to think that later on in 2026 and beyond that I will be using the SSTC. Especially as a connection between a local bus route and the Duece that will bring me to and from the Las Vegas Strip. With this, I conclude my review with these three tips: Tip One: the CAT and Duece with the SSTC saves money on the atrocious parking fees. Tip Two: You do not have to worry about drinking and driving. Tip Three: You save an extraordinary amount of money by not spending it on ride shares. read more

The South Strip Transfer Terminal is very easy to navigate. Employees/ staff are very friendly and helpful. Also a lot of the locals are very friendly and helpful as well. Great way to get around Vegas! read more

Cheap way to get to the Vegas strip from the airport! $6 gives you a 2 HR bus pass $8 gives you a 24 bus pass To get to the strip from the airport, walk down to the zero level and find the bus ticket machine. Purchase a ticket for the 109. This will lead you to the South Strip Transfer terminal. From there, you'll get off and get on the Deuce line at Bay 14 that leads you to the strip. The ride from the double deck bus gives you a mini intro the the strip with decent view. An Uber ride would cost about $30-40, depending on the time. I don't recommend going alone when it's dark. I'm sure it's fine but you'll probably feel uncomfortable. Handful of homeless and/or unstable people around yelling profanity. This didn't seem like a popular option, but it worked for us. When you get to the strip, you have some free alternative options to get to places. For instance, there is a free tram that goes from Park MGM to Bellagio. It's clean and nice. There is also a free shuttle that starts off at the Strat (search for the downtown loop) and goes to places like Fremont. Going from the strip to the airport requires a bit of time, even though it's so close. Plan at least an hour for this. read more

This facility and service was horrible. I highly recommend you avoid this facility. I flew into Vegas and needed to transfer onto a bus heading to Utah and Denver. There were several delays, and so I found myself stuck at this facility from midnight until 3:30 AM. The guy in charge of the ticket booth gave about 60 of us, waiting for the delayed bus incorrect information on several occasions. At first saying the bus was coming, and then telling us that it wouldn't be there until the next day, 24 hours later. I actually called Greyhound customer service, and their information contradicted what the attendant told us at this transfer terminal. At one point, he told us to go to a specific terminal and wait for the bus, so there we are, about 60 of us standing outside in the middle of the night waiting. Then 30 minutes later, he informs us to go back inside again. Then 40 minutes later, he repeats these instructions and has us wait outdoors, followed by another order to go back inside. What made the experience even worse was the fact that the entire facility was infiltrated with thousands of cockroaches, both inside and outside, so you dare not leave your luggage or personal belongings on the floor, and you don't want to nod off and pick up a hitchhiker. Also there were a few "challenged" homeless individuals here, who were obviously on drugs. They were screaming, fighting, throwing things and made the whole experience miserable. A facilities employee showed up shortly after midnight, and did nothing except to tell jokes and chat with the attendant the whole time. He wasn't helpful... He didn't clean, spray the roaches or even empty a single trash can. Useless... Finally, a substitute bus arrived and got us out of there. The bus service is a sore subject for another review, but I won't ever make the mistake of coming back to this transfer terminal ever again. I recommend that you avoid this facility at all cost... read more

Having a bad start to my month long trip. Lyft was so late I missed my bus. The next bus wasn't leaving SSTT I only had 1 hour to purchase new tickets and get to Fashion Show Mall....Lyft couldn't find the pick up.... Daryl saved the day he came out and noticed that my driver was lost. He volunteered to take me and my son to the bus station. I beyond Grateful. I thought that type of help and assistance only happened on TV.. A real life hero works at the tiny booth in the back. That Black Man deserves a RAISE!! read more

This is just a bus stop, is all. It's not anything special, but it serves a purpose. Very easy to get on many bus lines from this. Location is a bit a ways from the airport. This isn't too far though. It doesn't look that old. It's pretty clean and that includes the bathrooms, which is shocking. The inside of the terminal has some cool artwork on a few of the walls. Even so, it's just a place to get on a bus. There's a number of lines that stop here. Many will take you all over the city. The 117 and SDX make stops. It has several things that are pretty useful. A RTC ticket machine is outside the lobby. There's also large maps of the bus system at each bay, so you can easily find the correct route for you. read more

South Strip Transfer Terminal - Inside - Transportation Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Barbi shaves completely down there, so she no longer has a South Strip per se. Which is a good thing, believe me. There used to be a Greyhound station here on the South Strip, but these days you can't really take the Greyhound to this part of town, which is a shame because I think a lot of people want to. Nevertheless I have good memories of it. read more

South Strip Transfer Terminal (SSTT) is located just right outside of the McCarran International Airport (not within walking distance) and you can get to this bus terminal by taking either route 109 (the bus stop at Terminal 1 is located on Level Zero - $2 per ride) OR free shuttle to the McCarran Rent-A-Car Center & physically walk to the terminal (about three blocks away from the rental center & 15-minute walk). There are 18 different bays and below is a list of bay designations (effective Feb 2016): Bay #1 ~ #3: SDX, Deuce AM Rt, 109 (unloading only) Bay #4: 217 WB Bay #5: 212 WB Bay #6: 212 EB Bay #7, #8, #10, #11, #12: Charters Bay #9: Megabus and Amtrak Bay #13: 104 Bay #14: SDX, Deuce AM Rt Bay #15: 117 Bay #16: 217 EB Bay #17: 109 overflow; Paratransit & Silver Rider Bay #18: 109 If it starts to rain, then you really don't have a place to hide (no shelter) other than the SSTT building. Clean restroom & free Wi-Fi. A fairly average terminal, but SSTT is way better than the Greyhound bus terminal in downtown Las Vegas. P.S. - You can take the Strip & Downtown Express Bus (SDX) and the bus connects directly to the Strip & downtown Las Vegas (e.g. Mandalay Bay, MGM, Paris, Wynn, Fremont Street Experience, LV Premium Outlets, etc). Fare is $6 for unlimited rides in a 2-hour period or $8 for unlimited rides in a 24-hour period. read more

This Greyhound bus station is new it used to be in downtown but moved close to the Airport Car Rental close to the South Premium Outlet. I never saw the old bus station but a lot of people is saying this is way better and cleaner. We went to this station coz will be traveling from Vegas to California via bus ... The location is pretty clean I hope it's stay that way! read more

First this place was hard to find.. not even the taxi driver knew of it.. but once I called information we weren't that far away.. It's actually right on the outskirts of the airport ( not in the airport) Outside across the street and gage from the airport. We wanted to arrive early to obtain good seats.... we should have listened when they said don't arrive to 30-45 minutes early.. THERE IS NOTHING HERE.. it is strictly a bus depot, with the characters you except to see, the homeless, the trying to get home, the runaways - speaking of ... there was entire wall just dedicated to run a away children.. well that just ruined my weekend. There are only a few tables inside and vending machines...I was thrilled with the bathroom either only because you could enter the woman's' and men's' very easily , there was no door.. it was a 2 way entry so anyone could grab you as you walked in. It's not that bad if you are only waiting for about 30 minutes, but for the 3 hours early we did it was a horrible... I will return again since this is where you catch the MegaBus back to Los Angeles, just only 15 minutes before departure. read more

Twice in less than 2 months I have been truly let down by Greyhound! First my 16 year old daughter, traveling by herself, had to sleep in the terminal because her bus was late and caused her to miss her connecting bus. NOW this one just takes the cake, there is a woman here in Vegas, who has become a friend and she literally living in between the parking lot and hotel rooms (when she can afford one). She has her granddaughter with her and her son purchased tickets for them to get home to California. When she spoke to Greyhound they told her she would depart at TWELVE, no specification of NOON or MIDNIGHT. She assumed it was noon but it was midnight and she missed her bus. Honest mistake. When she spoke to Greyhound she was informed there are no l refunds or transfers or changes allowed. They literally just kept $300 and she is still homeless in Vegas. It's just terrible. read more

I went out of town this weekend and finally tried leaving my car here in the long term parking. I came back 3 days later and my car was still there!! I will be doing this again. It is pretty quick and only costs $2 to get to the airport. Just check the schedule for the 109 so you know what time the bus is coming around. This place is a block north of the rental car return. So it's not THAT hard to find for a cab driver or really anyone with GPS. I had a long exhausting weekend and didn't have the energy for the shuttle/ bus on the way back so I took a cab from the airport - big mistake, it ended up costing $17 just to get from McCarran to the terminal. Next time I'll suck it up and take the only slightly longer route by free inter terminal shuttle and $2 bus. read more

Had to transfer here after taking bus 109 from the airport to get to the strip. Continue my journey on the deuce bus. Don't know how it works the machine wanted $8 but on the bus an all day pass is only $5. Really long terminal look to cut thru the building in my case it was get off terminal 2 and goto terminal 14. There are vending machines and bathrooms here read more

South Strip Transfer Terminal (SSTT) is located just right outside of the McCarran International Airport. A connection for local buses and Megabus stop from Los Angeles. read more

There's not much to say of bus terminals, but this is cleaner and less shady than most. There's always a few employees walking around at all times of the day. All the ones I've interacted with have been fairly nice and helpful. Other than RTC local buses, this is a stop for Megabus that goes out to California. This is usually why I am here, I sometimes head out to LA on that cheap-o direct bus. The one bad thing is the parking lot is small for the traffic they get. Sometimes it is difficult to find any parking spot if you're doing a park and ride. read more

This place is pretty convience for myself to get to from school. The 109 bus goes directly here with stop in between of course. I find it to be extra convience for people traveling from other cities in and out where the buses do take folks to the strip and the airport. Also for faster transport, there are taxis. Each bay is designated for a specific bus. I tend to use Megabus so it has been always at the same bay. Side note, there are vending machines and public restrooms. read more

Ok terminal if you are waiting for a quick transfer of local buses. Horrible place if you have to wait for a Greyhound bus that's running late. The seats are uncomfortable, basically cement blocks or flat metal seats. Painful after sitting longer than 30 minutes. The newly contracted rent a cop are extremely good at making sure no sleeping is allowed. Even when you're outside of the building. Also they will periodically kick everyone out of the building for "cleaning" due to Covid. Sounds great in theory, but when it's 5am and your bus is over 2 hours late, it's pure misery. Might as well stand for hours, that's really the idea behind this station. read more

Car was stolen over New Year's weekend! We used to love this place until our car was stolen this past weekend. Even though they have security cameras and security personnel, somehow, our car was stolen. read more

Pretty decent bus terminal with bathrooms and bus ticket machine for RTC. Was dropped off here from getting the bus in front of Excalibur to grab Megabus back home. read more

I have been riding Bolt Bus now for almost 8 years and I take the Vegas SSTT to LA Union Station route everytime when I need to fly to New York. Flights from Vegas to the East Coast are cheaper than direct flights from LAX or San Diego. I can easily save around $ 50-$80 on each one way trip. I just have to sacrifice a 5 hour bus ride to and from Vegas. It's not a bad ride and there is a short 20-minute layover for a quick snap. Bolt Bus is cheaper than Megabus and more legroom. Wish they had more trips during the week like Megabus. read more

Everything was fine until they posted signs in the terminal stating that my Amtrak bus was going to leave an hour after my scheduled departure in my reservation. Terrible mistake. Ended up watching my bus depart from a distance, and had to pony up extra money to get back to Los Angeles and eventually back to Stockton very early in the morning. read more

I came through here relatively recently to pick up a friend in Vegas and was extremely impressed. Benefits: - new - clean - located close to the strip There's not much else to say about transportation terminals - although being clean is sadly enough a rare option, so that's enough to give this four stars. read more

Kind staff. Clean place. Never crowded. Give them your vehicle validation form and you're good to go!! read more

You cant beat the price to park here if your flying out.... Sadly, my truck was broken into.. Security and Metro caught the guy. Just be careful, don't have any belongings and use a steering lock. read more

This transfer terminal is in a good location. You can catch the SDX, the Deuce, the 109, 117, 217, 212, 402, and the 104. If you are heading to the airport and don't want to pay for garage or economy you can park your car here for free and take the 109 to the airport for $2. Don't like parking/ driving on the strip? Park here and hop on the SDX, you can catch a free ride like many people do on the SDX just watch out for workers checking for passes. The SSTT has a nice lobby with clean restrooms, plenty of chairs and tables, vending machines, and security that watches the parking lot. Only complaint I have is that a lot of people utilize the free parking and sometimes you can not find an available spot read more

I didn't want to give this place five stars because the majority of my reviews lately are either five stars or one star and that could start to look a little manic: love it! hate it! love it! hate it! truth is often somewhere in the middle, no? anyway, in spite of that, I'm giving this place five stars even though I don't want to and this is why: free long term parking 10 minutes and a $2 bus ride away from the airport. the long term parking lot is just two blocks north of south strip terminal . I left my car there for 8 days - no problem, and it seems secure enough. I called after 7 days to make sure they wouldn't tow it - once I got the number (not the easiest thing in the world and I forget what it was, sorry.) I reached a security guard who cheerfully told me not a problem. I don't think they were going to tow it on the 8th day anyway, but I wanted to make sure. Can't beat the price (free) location (ten minutes away) or the shuttle to the airport (catch the 109 bus at the terminal two blocks south of where you park in stalls 17 and 18. bring $2 in cash, exact change. it comes roughly every 20 minutes) Off the top of my head I can't think of another airport that has a free airport parking set up like this one. read more

Neat, clean, conveniently located. Seems more efficient than the downtown terminal and lite years ahead of Greyhound's.

Park here at your own risk. Someone broke into my car and attempted to steal it. I have seen other cars with broken windows as well. Security is not good. read more

This is the terminal for the Megabus out of Vegas. I've taken it at least a dozen times without any issues. The only thing to be aware of is that they don't have anyone inside the terminal to help you find which bay your bus is leaving from so go outside and ask the employees. It's a spotless place with tons of parking and there's not much else to say about a bus stop other than that. read more

Clean terminal, with air conditioned indoor vending machines and restrooms. Waited for my Megabus here at bay 9.

If I could, I wouldn't give a star at all! Most employees here only care about themselves and not the customers. I am so upset.

Clean terminal and restroom, been dropped off while still dark out, and still felt safe.

Bus terminal in South of Vegas, near the airport. One of the stops of the BOLT Bus and Mega Bus. You can get anywhere in Vegas from this terminal. It's lean, and has easy to read directions so you know which bay you will have to go to catch your bus. read more

This place seems like the middle of nowhere but actually has great connectors to the strip and downtown. You can take an RTC bus or Duce bus for $8.00 all day pass to the strip, Duce goes all the way to Freemont Street, runs every 15 min until 12:30. The busses start again at 8:00 for RTC and Duce is 9:00. Purchase the tickets at kiosk in terminal, credit or cash. They have restrooms open 24hrs but that's it after 8:00. I was there at 11:00 waiting for Megabus for 12:30 and kind of creepy late night, I didn't see any security around. If you hang out in the terminal until the bus arrives it's heated and well light. read more

Had to come here to use the Megabus. Sort of small and cozy with chairs and tables to use but the most important thing was that it looked very cleanly. It might be a bit confusing to navigate through or it might have just been me. read more

Andrew the security guard working lost and found has no idea what he's doing and has attitude and obviously can't do his job properly or read. We called looking for our phone that was lost on the bus and lost and found told us they found it, so when we went down there they told us that they DIDNT have it. Two weeks later Troy the security guard calls us and says they in fact do have the phone, now that we've already paid to replace it and that they did have it two weeks ago when we called looking for it. And so I get Andrew on the phone who swears up and down that they don't have it, and that it would be in the system if they had it, and I asked him "well is there a way it just wasn't put in the system? Because why would someone call and tell us you guys have it AGAIN when you don't" where he proceeded to tell me with attitude that they didn't have it it would be in the system." Blah blah blah. So I get troys name and call back and tell him "Troy the security guard said you guys have it" and then I hear Andrew scrambling and puts me on hold, and low and behold he comes back and says "we do have it, it's in the system, it expired out of the system, it was in the system 2 weeks ago and was reentered in" and I'm just shocked at this point when he reassured me that he checked the system and it wasn't there with such certainty and attitude. And of course we get there and when I question how when I originally called and questioned if it wasn't in the system he said it wasn't but when I called back with names it was magically in the system and his response was "it was in the system I just didn't see it" and at this point all I could do is just grab our phone and walk out because he is clearly working the wrong department and these people need new people working lost and found because that's the second time they swore up and down that they didn't have our phone but call us and tell us that they do? So if you lose something, they have it. You just have to be firm and keep pushing because they don't know what they're doing. read more

This is a great place to park when you need to take a flight out of Vegas if you have a little patience. First of all, it's FREE parking. Then, it is only a $2 bus fare to the airport. If you plan on staying longer (than a week?) then you should go to the office and fill out a form so they have your vehicle on record. I went on a 12 day trip with no problems. If you happen to be flying out during holidays, you just might be out of luck since parking is on a first come first served basis and the lots fill up fairly quickly. If you drive by and it is full, you will have to park at the airport. There are businesses across the street, but you might get towed from there. read more

Great place to park for up to two weeks. Easy shuttle to airport.
