What to See in Las Vegas and Environs
There
are loads of places to see in Las Vegas, Nevada and some of these are
listed below:
-
The
casino-hotels
along the strip - Luxor, Excalibur, MGM, Venetian,
New-York New-York, Bellagio, Mirage, Caesars, Wynn all worth a visit.
Luxor, Las Vegas,
3900 Las Vegas Boulevard South Las Vegas, NV 89119

at
the MGM
Grand.
-
Hoover Dam
-
the dam is less than an hours drive from Las Vegas and is regarded as
a wonder of the modern world
-
The Grand Canyon
- numerous companies offer flights to and from the Grand Canyon from
Las Vegas. Pink Jeep tours take small groups in luxury urban SUVs,
makes a great day out.
-
The volcano and the
Secret Garden (White Tigers and Dolphins) at the Mirage.
-
The free show in
front of Treasure Island. This used to be a family-oriented
pirate show, and has now changed to the more adult Sirens of TI
complete with showgirls and hunky pirates, also starts in the evening.
(Get there early, as it is hard to get a good spot, all MGM-owned
property guests get priority viewing space. If in doubt, ask.)
-
The fountain show
in front of the Bellagio.
-
Ride a gondola
(inside or outside) and visit St. Mark's Square at The Venetian
-

in the Las Vegas Hilton - though frankly, unless
you're a big Star Trek fan, it looks a little dated now.

Mount Charleston
is the local ski resort.
