From Harry Reid International Airport (LAS)
Harry Reid International Airport is the closest major airport to Excalibur. Most sources list the drive distance as roughly 2–3 miles and the trip normally takes about 5–11 minutes by car depending on traffic.
Excalibur's address is 3850 Las Vegas Blvd S, Las Vegas, Nevada, 89109 — give that to your driver or enter it into your navigation app for the quickest route to the resort entrance.
- No hotel-provided airport shuttle is available; arrange your own transport.
- Taxis from LAS to the Strip are usually the fastest single-vehicle option.
- Allow extra time for pickup lines at the airport during peak arrival periods.
| Transport | Typical travel time | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Taxi / Rideshare | 5–11 minutes | Fastest door-to-door option; airport pickup points are designated |
| RTC Bus / Deuce | ~40–45 minutes | Much cheaper but involves walking and transfers; slower |
| Private transfer / Limo | 5–15 minutes | Prebook if you prefer a fixed fare and meet-and-greet service |
Taxi and Rideshare (Uber / Lyft)
Taxis and rideshare apps pick up at designated curbs at Harry Reid. Drivers will drop you off at Excalibur’s main porte-cochère or nearby designated rideshare/taxi zones on the Strip.
Taxis are typically priced higher than rideshare but often faster to board at the airport. Rideshare wait times vary by demand; check the app for estimated arrival and surge pricing.
- Provide the hotel address (3850 Las Vegas Blvd S) or 'Excalibur Hotel & Casino' to the driver.
- Have a card on file in the app or cash for tipping taxis if you plan to tip.
- Expect short walking from the curb to the front desk; luggage assistance is available at the porte-cochère.
| Option | When to choose |
|---|---|
| Taxi | When you want immediate pickup and no app setup |
| Rideshare (Uber/Lyft) | When you want an estimated fare and to avoid taxi lines |
Public Transit: Bus, Deuce and Trams
The RTC Deuce bus runs the length of the Strip 24 hours and is a low-cost option to reach Excalibur from the airport area, but it is substantially slower than a direct car trip. Combined routes (airport bus to the Strip + the Deuce) can take around 40–45 minutes.
At the south end of the Strip, Excalibur is connected to Luxor and Mandalay Bay by a complimentary tram that runs 24 hours, helpful for moving between those three resorts without walking outside.
- Deuce fares and passes are inexpensive; check RTC for current pass pricing and routes.
- Plan extra time for baggage handling and waiting for buses, especially late at night.
- Tram between Excalibur, Luxor and Mandalay Bay is free and runs frequently.
| Service | Notes |
|---|---|
| RTC Deuce | Runs the Strip 24 hours; slower but inexpensive |
| Excalibur–Luxor–Mandalay Bay tram | Free, 24-hour shuttle between the three resorts |

Short Tips for a Smooth Arrival
If you have heavy luggage, use the porte-cochère for drop-off and ask bell services for help; tipping is customary. If you’re short on time, choose a taxi or prebook a private transfer.
Consider the Deuce or the complimentary tram only when budget is more important than speed. Confirm parking or EV charging details with the hotel if you plan to drive.
- Prebook private transfers for groups to reduce wait times on arrival.
- If using public transit, allow at least 40–45 minutes from the airport to the Strip.
- Have your photo ID and card ready to avoid delays at check-in.

| Lowest cost | RTC Deuce + walking (longer travel time) |
| Free resort-to-resort hop | Use the complimentary tram between Excalibur, Luxor, Mandalay Bay |
