The STRAT SkyPod
The STRAT
The tallest freestanding observation tower in the United States, at about 350 meters. Indoor and outdoor decks offer 360-degree views of the city, and thrill rides sit at the top.
The tower stands at the STRAT Hotel on the north end of the Strip. A high-speed elevator takes about a minute to reach the observation level at roughly 260 meters, and there is also the Top of the World rotating restaurant. Thrill rides at the top, such as Big Shot, X-Scream, and Insanity, along with the SkyJump free-fall, are for the brave. Observation deck tickets cost roughly $20–40, and rides cost extra. From the middle of the Strip, the Deuce bus takes about 15 minutes.
