How To Get From Aria to Bellagio
You can quickly get from Aria to Bellagio, however, there’s no direct walkway between the two hotels/resorts. To get there, you’ll need to take a walk through the Vdara Hotel or take the Aria Express tram to your destination.
So how can you get from The Aria Resort & Casino to The Bellagio the quickest? Let’s discuss the two ways in the following sections.
Take the Walkway From Aria to Vdara, Then Vdara to Bellagio
The Vdara and Aria are next to each other, and there’s a walkway for you to move between both resorts as you please. Luckily, it will only take a couple of minutes to walk between the two, depending on where you are in the resort.
Then, after getting to Vdara, you can take the walkway to Bellagio, which should also only take a few minutes.
Luckily, the walkway between the Vdara and Bellagio is covered. However, the walkway between the Aria and Vdara is not. Therefore, keep this in mind if you choose to use the walkways.
So, while you can easily walk from the Aria to the Bellagio, you do have to go through the Vdara. The way around is clearly indicated with arrows and signs, so you don’t have to worry about getting lost anywhere. The staff members are also there to help you figure everything out if you need any help, so don’t be afraid to ask.
Take the Aria Express Tram From Aria to Bellagio
The Aria Express Tram is entirely free of charge, so you can come and go whenever you want without spending a ton of money or worrying about the logistics of buying tickets. The entire trip only takes a few minutes. Therefore, it’s an incredibly short trip and will take you where you want to go faster than doing everything on foot.
The tram has three stops:
- The Bellagio Tram Station: With access to Vdara Hotel & Spa.
- Crystals Tram Station: With access to Aria Resort & Casino.
- Aria & Park MGM Tram Station: With access to the park and T-Mobile Arena (sports and entertainment venue).
The tram operates from 8 am to 2 am, so if you want to move around after 2 am, you’ll have to walk between the hotels/resorts. Additionally, the Bellagio stop is right between the Bellagio and the Vdara, so you can easily access both.
It’s important to remember that no matter what you choose, it’s easy to go from property to property, but these properties are enormous.
For instance, the walkway between Vdara and the Bellagio isn’t very long, but it will take you quite some time to get from the end of that walkway to the casino within Bellagio, which is on the opposite side of the resort property.
What Other Walkways Connect to the Aria and the Bellagio?
There are also some walkways from the Vdara, Aria, and Bellagio to other hotels/resorts. Some of those walkways are pretty short, and it might be something you want to discover if you’re in Vegas for a couple of days.
Aria to Park MGM
There’s an inside walkway from Aria to Park MGM for easy access. It’s a very short walk, so it shouldn’t take too long to get there. Once again, you can easily follow the arrows and signs to get where you want to be.
Bellagio to Cosmopolitan
This walkway will also take you to the Las Vegas Strip. It’s a sheltered walkway with a nice view, and it only takes a few minutes to get there, as the Bellagio and Cosmopolitan are right next to each other. Using this walkway is an excellent way to enjoy the nice views while getting to your destination in a reasonable time.
Bellagio to Caesars Palace
The hotels are next to each other, and a raised pedestrian walkway connects them. Again, it only takes a few minutes to get from hotel to hotel.

Why Are Aria, Vdara, and Bellagio Connected?

Most are in Las Vegas, but they also have properties in China and Japan. They also own the MGM Grand and Mandalay Bay, among others. These are some of the most famous resorts in Vegas.
