Planning Your Trip

How to Visit Both Venues

Most visitors to Las Vegas enjoy Peppermint Hippo and Spearmint Rhino 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.

For longer trips, you might revisit your favorite or explore the remaining strip clubs on the Strip. NoCoverVegas offers free guest list at both, so there is no extra cost to doing multiple nights.

Taxis are available at all major hotel taxi stands, though rideshare apps typically offer shorter wait times and better pricing.
