One tip I was once given in LV: As a tourist never leave the strip at
night and walk into side streets. Never.

Good advice. I've had to glare-down purse-snatchers/pick-pockets even ON
the Strip. Vegas is a fun place, but it attracts some pretty desperate
and unsavory folks.

One last word of (hopefully unnecessary) advice for the OP: PLEASE don't
judge America by what you see/experience in Los Angeles and/or Las Vegas.

They're usually fun places to visit, but they're about as representative
of America as watching "Miami Vice" or "CSI"...

Then read the OP again. He visits LV for business and said he'd want to stay
in LA for 3 days and fly there.

Whatever he does, he should not take either to be your typical US city!
Like the pilot who wanted to fly in LA, while his wife asked someone at the
airport how to get a bus into the city center. The response, "Lady, First they
ain't no city center - second, they ain't no bus . . ."
