Leaving Los Cabos

Los Cabos International Airport is located 6 miles north of Los Cabos in the far south of the Baja California peninsula. It's serviced by 14 airlines, including Delta, United and Northwest. Limited parking is available at $1.13 per hour or $11.31 per day.

Hiring a shuttle to the airport, which costs $69, can be done through the Los Cabos International website. Taxis in the area are fairly expensive, and the companies offering deals may make surprise stops at time-share presentations. The closest bus stop is approximately a mile from the airport.

Several small eateries are in the airport, ranging from drink stands to fast-food restaurants. Popular options include McDonald's and Dunkin' Donuts. There is also a selection of bars where you can enjoy alcoholic or regular drinks and small snacks. Be prepared to spend quite a lot on food at the airport. For instance, a Pepsi costs roughly $3.

Mexico to Nevada

The dry heat of Las Vegas, Nevada, will be familiar to those from Los Cabos. The difference will be seen in everything else. The Vegas desert is filled with grand buildings fringed by pools and tropical landscaping. Long lines, flashing neon signs and nonstop traffic set apart this wild U.S. destination.

The Mood in Vegas

Las Vegas is home to both McCarran International Airport and the much smaller North Las Vegas airport. The first does business with 34 airlines. The second hosts small planes used by amateur pilots and tourism services. Commercial flights from Los Cabos fly into McCarran International.

If you're renting a car during your stay, you'll need to take the airport-provided shuttle to a rental station behind the airport. Using Orbitz.com, you may be able to arrange your transportation in advance. Eleven companies offer rentals, including Avis and Alamo. You can also catch a ride downtown on the city bus or on a shuttle to one of the hotels on the Strip. The average fee for a taxi is $22 to $25.

Similar to Los Cabos, Las Vegas's weather tops 100°F for most of the summer, though the winters run a bit colder and can get down to the 50s. Rain makes even less of an appearance here than it does on the Baja California peninsula, with most months averaging less than half an inch. Fortunately, warm and dry weather is perfect for pool hopping, parties and wandering the Strip in search of the perfect restaurant or resort.

With hotels like the Mirage and Bellagio waiting to be explored, it's very common for tourists to visit multiple hotels while staying in Vegas. Most resorts offer multiple entertainment and dining options for guests and other travelers alike. Casino resort hotels also welcome people from all walks of life. It isn't rare to see high-rolling gamblers at multiple stops on the same night or to watch tables of professional gamblers playing for pots of more than $1 million.

Heading Back to Mexico

The beauty of  Los Cabos welcomes travelers home, as does the slower pace of life after a fun-filled adventure in the Nevada desert. Still, if you feel the allure of the glitz and glam drawing you back, make sure to book your next trip from Los Cabos to Las Vegas with help from Orbitz.com.
