What’s the best route from Lake Tahoe to Las Vegas?

I want to go to Lake Tahoe on our next family vacation, but my husband wants to go to Las Vegas. We’ve discussed the possibility of compromising and spending a couple of days in both locations. What’s the best route to take between them?

That sounds like a good compromise! The best route from
Lake Tahoe
to
Las Vegas
follows US-50 E and US-95 Sand requires about seven hours of driving.
While this is certainly doable, especially if you trade off driving and have time to rest before moving on, it does require a fair amount of time in the car! To make the trip more fun, you might consider stopping at some other sights along the way, such as:
  • Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area
  • Badwater Basin
  • Mesquite Flat Sand Dunes
It’s also a good idea to update your
car insurance
policy before you leave. Using the

app can help you find the best rates on the coverage you need for your big trip. That way, you’ll save money and keep your car protected.
