Map of top 10 attractions in Las Vegas
The typical top ten attractions are listed below. You can find the detailed locations of these places on the maps above.
- Stroll on the Strip after dark - You haven't really seen Las Vegas until you've seen it at night. This neon wonderland is the world's greatest sound and-light show. Begin at Luxor and work your way past the incredible hotels and their attractions. Go all the way to the Stratosphere Tower for a bird's-eye view of the city from more than 1,000 feet up. Make plenty of stops en route to see the Mirage Volcano erupt, take a photo of the full moon over the Eiffel Tower, and marvel at the choreographed water-fountain ballet at Bellagio.
- Watch the water dance at the Bellagio fountains - This intricately choreographed water ballet would be worth repeated viewings even if they charged to see it. The fact that they don't makes it an almost perfect Vegas experience.
- Experience the Fremont Street - How do you persuade tourists it's safe to walk the downtown streets at night? Simple – you put a roof over the lot and turn it into a massive light show display. Now you can also fly the Slotzilla zip line just under the Fremont Street roof.
- See the Volcano eruption - When the free Mirage Volcano first 'erupted' in 1989, shooting flames and faux lava into the sky, it literally stopped traffic on the Strip. That it doesn't today only means that it has more competition for your attention, not that it is any less fun.
- Play the casino penny slot machine - The interior of each lavish hotel casino is more outrageous and giggle-inducing than the last. Just when you think they can't possibly top themselves, they do. From Venice to Paris, from New York City to the Manhattan-style chic of CityCenter, it is all, completely and uniquely, Las Vegas.
- Visit one of the 'only in Vegas' museums - Go nuclear at the National Atomic Testing Museum, go naughty at the Erotic Heritage Museum, or get 'made' at the Mob Museum.
- See the Cirque du Soleil performance - With over five permanent shows on the Strip, and more on the way, the Canadian circus/theatre troupe has transformed Las Vegas entertainment scene.
- Visit the Grand Canal - There's more to see and do at the Venetian than perhaps any other casino in town, but it's the absurd Grand Canal, with its gondolas, bridges, squares and high-class shops and restaurants, that you'll be telling the folks back home about.
- Have a breakfast buffet - Whether your tastes run towards the refinement of Wynn Las Vegas or the 1950s kitsch of the Imperial Palace, you can't leave Las Vegas without sampling at least one all-you-can-eat buffet.
- Get away from it all - Las Vegas can be overwhelming, so be sure to put some time on your itinerary to find your Zen by visiting the Valley of Fire State Park, Red Rock Canyon, Grand Canyon, Hoover Dam.
- Other must-do experiences include: seeing the sharks at the Shark Reef Aquarium; taking the New York-New York roller coaster; partying at the pool; going clubbing, regenerating at the spa.
