number 10 planning your trip
if you live on the us east coast or even further away we'd suggest booking a flight depending on
how your trip goes you may leave with enough money to bump yourself to a first-class ticket
or well not for those already down west driving to vegas is half the fun even if you don't have
time to stop at the grand canyon or hoover dam you're guaranteed to drive by some stunning sights
while summer is a popular travel season vegas temperatures often exceed 100 degrees fahrenheit
unless you're able to take the heat visit during the winter plus the whole city is lit
up like a glitzy christmas tree excalibur offers a reasonably priced vegas experience but for big
spenders the win and bellagio are the pinnacles of luxury number nine las vegas sign whether you
arrive during the day or night the iconic las vegas sign will call to you like a seductive
beacon it doesn't merely say welcome to las vegas the sign reads welcome to fabulous las vegas
emphasizing the city's glamour and allure designed by betty willis in the late 50s the 25-foot sign
not only stands out with its neon lights but a distinctive diamond shape and welcomes spelt
out with silver dollars it's a symbol that says whether you leave richer or poorer the memories
you make in vegas will be priceless well assuming you don't have an experience like the hangover
guys in any case a selfie by the sign is the perfect way to kick off your vegas adventure
number eight las vegas strip once your bags are dropped off immediately hit the strip since vegas
landmarks become more instagrammable at night the day is the ideal time for indoor activities such
as the venetians grand canal shops and interior gondola rides of course the venetian also offers
outdoor gondola rides if you need some fresh air you'll also want to see the flamingo hotel's
wildlife habitat while the sun is out during the afternoon head over to new york new york
to ride the big apple coaster and since you're on vacation have a snack at hershey's chocolate world
watch the sunset from atop the high roller ferris wheel for dinner enjoy an atmospheric meal at the
paris hotel's eiffel tower caesar's palace or by the mirage volcano number seven fremont street
the night is still young don't head back to the hotel just yet while there is more to
see on the strip fremont street provides a refreshing change of nighttime scenery
located about 15 minutes away from the strip by car downtown is where vegas gets extra risque
nicknamed glitter gulch it's less polished than upscale vegas but that's kind of part
of the nostalgic charm to get the full fremont street experience come at night for the viva
vision light show if you're feeling lucky but not that lucky fremont offers lower stakes gambling
or maybe you'd rather swing from the slotzilla zipline also check if any free concerts are
happening that night if not let's just say street performers put on quite a show number six spa day
after spending the previous day walking around town and possibly having one too many you'll
likely feel bush the following morning sleeping the day away in your luxurious bed might sound
tempting but it's no way to spend your limited time in vegas instead order room service and head
for the nearest spa no matter how hard you partied last night now's the time to relax and rejuvenate
assuming you're staying at one of the premier vegas hotels there's bound to be a spa treatment
that'll suit your needs be it a massage sauna or whirlpool while encore and arya both provide
soothing spa experiences the bellagio's spa tower offers the best view for your book
number five hang out at the pool cap off your spa day by enjoying lunch by the pool
if you need to get out some pent-up energy though why not go for a swim given its name
and location in paradise nevada it shouldn't come as a surprise that treasure island is loaded with
palm trees and cabanas the venetians pool scene is every bit as classy as its gondola tours
for another level of atmosphere mandalay bay has a 1.6 million gallon wave pool
lazy river and waterfall no day at the beach can top that now that we're recovering from
the pandemic pool parties are also making a comeback in vegas for some going from a spa
to a pool party might be a 180 if you're fully recharged however go wild number 4 casinos
it's time to trade in your swimsuit and bathrobe for your evening finest after
grabbing some dinner engage in one of vegas's most time-honored traditions gambling definitely isn't
for everyone if you know your limits and act responsibly though there's no harm in placing
a few wages assuming you're 21 or older vegas has no shortage of iconic casinos with caesar's palace
specializing in sports betting and bellagio providing poker rooms of course card games are
better suited for seasoned gamblers roulette and craps are equally stimulating and unpredictable
those who want to keep it casual can check out the slots number three shark reef mandalay bay there's
still probably a fair deal on the strip that you didn't get around to experiencing so commence your
final day in vegas checking off any other bucket list items for an indoor activity that will take
up most of your morning shark reef at mandalay bay practically immerses visitors under the sea one of
the largest aquariums on the continent shark reef houses rays turtles piranhas and you guessed it
sharks if you won 650 the previous night you're in luck because that's exactly how much it costs
to dive with the sharks even if you don't have the funds or stomach for it there are plenty of
other sea creatures to get acquainted with and even feed number two bellagio fountains
las vegas possesses landmarks around every corner but few dazzle quite like the fountains
of bellagio dancing in perfect synchronization the fountains deliver a new display every 30
minutes from 3pm to 8pm on weekdays weekends and holidays provide even more opportunities to catch
a fountain display operating from noon to 8 pm the bellagio fountains offer the ultimate view
for lunch or dinner the mayfair super club which replaced the hyde bellagio restaurant in 2019
offers the ideal vantage point to enjoy a meal and a fountain show but the fountains aren't
the bellagio's only treasure the conservatory and botanical gardens change seasonally so if
you're a regular vegas visitor there's always a reason to come back number one a las vegas show
while the fountains are a spectacle they're far from the only show in town of course end your trip
on a high note with a live vegas production you'll find there's no shortage of variety
for music the blue man group are vegas mainstays but you'll also want to keep track of which music
superstars are touring cirque du soleil has five vega shows ranging from beatles tributes like love
to the water themed o vegas is also a hub for comedians magicians and even comedic
magicians like penn teller or maybe you prefer a steamy show like magic might live
whatever you're in the mood for no city puts on a show quite like vegas
and remember as you leave drive carefully and come back soon
