Planning Your Trip
How to Visit Both Venues
Most visitors to Las Vegas enjoy DayDream and Go Pool on different nights rather than trying to squeeze both into a single evening. Both venues are full-night experiences, and rushing between them means missing the best parts of each. If you have a two-night trip, plan DayDream for one night and Go Pool for the other. For longer trips, you might revisit your favorite or explore the remaining pool partys on the Strip. NoCoverVegas offers free guest list at both, so there is no extra cost to doing multiple nights.
For transportation between DayDream (M Resort Spa Casino) and Go Pool (Flamingo Las Vegas), rideshare services like Uber and Lyft are the fastest option. Most rides between Strip venues take 5 to 15 minutes and cost $10 to $25 depending on surge pricing. Avoid walking between off-Strip venues at night — distances in Las Vegas are deceptive and the desert heat persists well into the evening during summer months. Taxis are available at all major hotel taxi stands, though rideshare apps typically offer shorter wait times and better pricing.
