Believe it or not, it has been 2 1/2 years since Las Vegas Inside & Out has taken our cameras inside either Luxor or Excalibur - and in this town, that's wayyyy too long! What's new, and what's comfortably the same, at these two iconic resorts known for their over-the-top theming? Join us as we take a whirlwind tour through the Las Vegas version of Camelot and the Great Pyramid....literally right next door to each other! We admit, we love both these terrific properties, and we know there are a lot of you out there that do too. :)

Excalibur is a great property as long as you come in with the right mindset. It's not a 5 star hotel and it doesn't pretend to be. But I always find myself gambling there. To me it has a welcoming and relaxing vibe, but still upbeat and busy, unlike say Mandalay bay which can feel dead being so far from the action. Luxor to me has always been a great property to stay at. Eating at Dialos Cantina is a must for me. Talk about high ceilings! Love the atmosphere there.

@TheVictorCruz Год назад

Anyone who hasn't visited the Titanic exhibit needs to go. Its mesmerizing and well worth the price. I actually got a bit emotional.

@panjo Год назад

Luxor is nice, very underrated

@michaelp1242 Год назад

I have stayed at the Luxor many times since 2012. Always a clean comfortable room and lots to see and do. Convenient to other properties and attractions. Luxor is priced fairly and the lobby area is amazing.

@bobm7499 Год назад

I'm with you, Paula. I've been fascinated by ancient Egypt since I was a kid and went through the Luxor's exhibit of Tut's tomb years ago back when it was still open. Finally figured out the layout with that exhibit. FYI and in prep for the new exhibit: you can access Howard Carter's original field notes online for free. I've read quite a bit of it and the man was clinical in his descriptions as he found more and more amazing things. Didn't allow his excitement to show at all. I'm sure that onsite he was going bananas (OMG!OMG!OMG!), but his writing, which is really good, doesn't reflect that. Also, for Downton Abby fans (me): High Claire Castle where the series was filmed, was the home of Lord Canarvon, who financed Carter's dig in the Valley of the Kings. Apparently there is a replica of the tomb in the basement of the castle. Of course, Canarvon was present when Carter opened the tomb and died a few months later from an infected insect bite, which was the origin of the much loved '30's Hollywood theme in several movies: The Mummy's Curse.

One of the many reasons I love about Las Vegas is everyone wants to be happy because everyone wants to have fun at THEE vacation destination...Vegas Baby! Always enjoyed both Excalibur and Luxor. Again, excellent review.

You are not wrong - I think you hit the nail on the head!

Thanks for this and always excited for your next video. I don’t care what anyone says…LOVE THE LUXOR! I’m in VeGaS 2-3 times a year w/my Mom. We always stay there. From the hotel to the Pyramid Cafe, the staff really goes out of their way to make sure we have a great stay. Hugs from Texas♥️

@busterbud Год назад

Great video as always. I've stayed at both Luxor and the Excalibur, most recently in June, and I've found the rooms to be clean and quiet, which is my main concern, as I do not spend a lot of time in my room. I've seen the show "Fantasy," and the Titanic exhibit which I enjoyed and recommend. I've also seen the "Bodies" exhibit, and while I found it interesting, it is not something I'd visit more than once.

@soulbasedliving Год назад

There was a beautiful gift shop called Inner Space where the Public House is now. Everything sold came from Egypt, from the smallest figurine to a full size bust of King Tut.

@paulamckenzie Год назад

Yes! I have a friend and co-worker where I work now, who was the buyer for Luxor for many years - she traveled to Egypt twice a year to select the items to be sold in the stores. I WISH I had known her then!!

@melissajensen3166 Год назад

I saw the King Tut exhibit when it toured in the 70’s. They had the exhibit at one of the buildings in Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. I was the cool kid, my BFF and I got pulled out of school for the day to go see it! Going to Catholic school, you had to have a good reason! Lol

@lisamoore107 Год назад

It’s my happiest place on earth that’s for sure! I remember when the Luxor first opened Good Morning America was there, and the place was packed. We used to stay at the Excalibur when our kids were little. Good memories thanks for showing them

Just got back to Canada from 4 nights at Luxor and our last night at Excalibur. Surprisingly nice and super clean properties. Luved it! 🥂👍

@westsparks6844 Год назад

My last 3x to Vegas I stayed at the Luxor. I just love the place. Yes, I know its dated and on the low end of strip properties, but it has its own character. It's definetly not for everyone, but fits me perfectly. Thanks for sharing your experience.

@rongarris8574 Год назад

Years ago our family ate breakfast at the Excalibur buffet. It was the worst food imaginable. Powdered eggs, undercooked greasy bacon, sour OJ, and not one item that was above a C-. The pastries reminded me of staying at a Holiday Inn Express. I hope the Excalibur has improved their buffets. Dale and Paula make the best videos that promote Las Vegas. Their You Tube channel is the first channel that I click on come Sunday mornings. Dale is an excellent musician and you can see his artist talent even in the way he puts their videos together.

@paulamckenzie Год назад

Wow, what a lovely compliment to us, thank you so much, Ron! 🥰 And I sure hope the Excalibur buffet has upped its game...that sounded gross...

@davec2470 Год назад

Amazing how people forget how wonderful these properties really are. Stayed at Luxor, Excalibur as well as MB, and loved every minute of them. Best location on the strip, and so many have sadly been on the chopping block.

@kathleenmanley9733 Год назад

You remind me of the best days. At the front desk, because I had reason to ask...long story, the Luxor gave me the only room they had available. The executive suite with a strip view. OH, MY, GOD! I was going to walk around on the strip and I ended up just siting in my bed and calling up my ole friends and talking all night. Both those hotels are good prices and reminiscent of "family friendly" Vegas transition when the mob left in the beginning of the 80's, I think. You friendly showgirl.

@paulamckenzie Год назад

We LOVE it when a video of ours prompts a great memory for you who are watching it! I would have done the same, Kathleen - just stayed there and played big shot for the night!

@lancestaab2372 Год назад

Not a big fan of the Southend of the Strip but when you get older you get set in your ways (Flamingo Fan). I will have to try either the Luxor or Excalibur. Stayed at MGM about 5 yrs ago. Nothing better that getting up on a Sunday and watching Dale and Paula, Its said they can't do it every Sunday

My favorite spot! 4 Corners! I really like the Luxor. It gets kind of a bad rap, but I think it is cool. Thanks for the Great views of the corner! Excalibur is pretty cool. Wow...32 years! I doubt it will make it to 40. Wow! 39.7 Million at Excalibur. I did win $4400 on a slot machine at Excalibur. They have now removed my favorite game: Reef of Riches. I guess I will have to go to Tonopah to play it at the Mizpah Hotel and Casino. Johnny Rockets is pretty good. There is a Dick's and a Johnny Rockets in downtown Gatlinburg. Thanks for the great tour of Excalibur. The lobby area in Luxor is pretty darn nice. Aurora bar is pretty cool. I've never won much at The Luxor, but I do enjoy playing in the casino. I love the shops along the mall shops from Luxor to Mandalay Bay. I once saw Pete Rose there at the Sports Memorabilia store. The Luxor pool is very nice. That is cool that Paula worked there! That is neat! The tournament of kings looks fun. Just like Medieval Times that we went to several times in Myrtle Beach. Tina and I went to Fantasy several years ago. It was great! I love Krispy Kreme. Oh cool. I would like to see the King Tut exhibit. Diablo's Cantina is very good. Great video as always!! Loved it!

@davidberryman9688 Год назад

I never stayed at either of those places but visited them many times. 1st time was in 1995 when themed casinos was the thing. Thanks for a wonderful recap of both places, it's always fun to see the newest developments in both establishments. Your cinematography and editing was top notch as usual. Great production overall, bring on the next one.

@marciamccoy761 Год назад

Tournament of Kings had to start before 1999 because my husband and I went to see it. My husband died in Aug, 1998! I think it was Oct, 1997 or Feb 1998 when we attended. It was fun. I love your videos!

I love you guys. Your so entertaining and just so down to earth. I’ve always liked that. You don’t try to be showoffs or hype something up. You just get out there and you always seem to enjoy yourselves. I watch your videos over and over. Oh, and I agree I’ve been to Vegas three times and every time at least a portion of my stay is at the Luxor. I think it’s a fun cool resort. I’ve said for years that if the Luxor were down or planet Hollywood and more center strip they would probably charge a lot more to stay there. You guys are a joy. Take care and have a great New year. I will be back to Vegas this year and I hope this time I will be able to meet my favorite RU-vid people. Dale and Paula.

@deniseu2119 Год назад

Ooohhh! We saw the King Tut exhibit in 2007 in Philadelphia. It wasn't with the main artifacts that were in the exhibit in the 70s, but it was still pretty cool! Would love to see the one at the Luxor. Fun fact : when I was a pre teen, I wanted to be an Egyptologist. Now, a good friend's daughter is getting her PhD in Egyptology. I'm very proud of her.

@paulamckenzie Год назад

Now when it comes to the resorts, I have noticed a pretty big difference between the public areas of Excalibur vs. the actual hotel rooms. The lobby and show spaces are great but the hotel rooms themselves definitely do need some updating. Great for families though. Thank you both !

@projoeiii Год назад

I’m right there with you on enjoying the theme hotels. I hate that Vegas is getting away from that. I don’t know if it’s seen as too cheesy now or if they’re concerned about offending people in 2022 with stereotypes for theme hotels, but I always loved the theme hotels. What’s the point of having one generic giant resort next to another generic bland resort? Give me Caesars, a giant pyramid, an Eiffel Tower and more. Add a Brazilian one or an Aussie theme with kangaroos and an outside that looks like the Sydney Opera House. How about a Canadian one that can be a hockey haven for all the fans that visit when their team plays the Golden Knights? Bring themes for the whole world to Las Vegas. It’s fun and keeps the resorts from just being more of the same.

As much as they try, You can't de-theme a castle and a Piramid!, And as You pointed out who ever said themed properties are a Bad thing?. I find both places very confortable, Shure the furnishings are a bit dated but that's because MGM has not Taken care of them properly, but they are Nice fun places and they know they are still money makers or they would of been razed long ago. Very Nice video tour, you're the Best!

Years ago, my father stayed at the Luxor. He got lost trying to find his way back to his room after gambling in the casino. A security guard was called to help him find his room and he could not find it either! Next the head of maintenance was summoned and finally escorted my father back to his room. In defense of my father, those pyramid corridors could make Columbus sail back to Spain.🤣🤣🤣

I LOVE this story!! That pyramid has been known to exert strange vibes... 😂

@igniteexport1463 Год назад

I love the Luxor. The theming is cool. I was just staying there. And on the way out of the house keepers said that they felt that Luxor didn't get the treatment that it deserves from MGM. She said that they are trying to regenerate interest in the hotel, and that some things are changing for the better. So I'm hoping that means that may be MGM is taking a renewed interest. I just feel the same way that MGM pays a lot of attention to the higher end resorts, but as our check-in lady said, why is it that luxe or gets hand me downs rather than their own furniture? I love the theming, I LOVE THE LUXOR. Its unique and so cool. Kind of wish they had never taken away all the original theming. My only issue is that I did notice when we were just there that in the hallways in the pyramid, some of the wallpaper is starting to peel some of the doors are kind of beat up. What I don't understand is why after remodeling the pyramid rooms and it seem like they did a nice job with them. I just don't understand why they didn't redo the hallways. Now I love the Bellagio. I stayed there for the first time yesterday and it's absolutely stunning. But it's also 2x-4X the price of the Luxor. Steel said in the video whoever said theming was a bad thing? Thank you guys. I love watching you all and its so nice to see how much you all love one another. As i said before i can not tell you how much Dale reminds me of my grandpa. So thank you for always putting a smile on my face when i watch your videos.

Thank you so very much for the beautiful presentation. The only thing to mention is that I missed some of the presentation because of the music in the middle. I still don't understand why people insert music when the purpose is to inform people of something. Music can be in between but should not serve as an obstacle to information. Anyway, I see I can not win on this one. Thank you again!

I've stayed at both places many times in 20 years. Luxor has had its ups and downs was always my favorite place. There old pool was so cool had palm trees in the pool you can use any pool. Their pool bar had the best drinks big and nothing over 8 bucks. But since like 2012 u have to pay to use west tower pool. drinks are 5x the price. Food in the place are 4x the price. The staff just kept getting worse and worse , rude everywhere and rooms were just nasty, one trip bugs all in the beds. But I've heard they have remodeled all the pyramid rooms from the old bellagio rooms and look way better plus the tower got redone before that too. But I have to say I never had a bad stay at excalibur in 20years in both towers. My rooms were always clean and comfortable and the check in staff was always so nice and welcoming. I miss the sherwood forest cafe there. It was one of the best in vegas. My dad who passed away loved it we always went on any trip, also was my 21st birthday breakfast with my friends first vegas trip and my friends dinner night before their wedding. Back in early 2000s They use to have great packages spring and summer. like give you vouchers for free lunch buffets, free tap beers, free house wines free well drinks. Love the pool its lots of fun plenty of space. Summers they use to have live music outside and the singers got in pool and interacted with the guests. Such a good time. They also after they started charging resort fee still gave back to the guest gave you a $25 F&B credit even if it was a mylife or myvegas comp room. Just great deal. Excalibur has always got a bad rap and I hate to see it. Nice to see u guys appreciate these places.
