Discover Las Vegas's Wonders

By some, Vegas is known as "Sin City" and it is easy to see why. Anything goes in the oasis of light and life in the middle of the harsh Nevada desert. Play a round of poker at one of the many casinos or take in an amazing show like Celine Dion! Looking for something other than nightlife? Head to the famous Hoover Dam to marvel at one of America's most impressive engineering marvels.

Description

Shortly after gambling was legalized in Nevada in 1931, construction of the first hotel/casinos began, but who could have known that it was the beginning of the phenomenon known simply as Vegas: a glamorous, fantasy oasis in the middle of the desert. Although the city's image seems to be dominated by casinos, there is much more to Las Vegas than "just" gambling, eating, and shopping — it is a vibrant, fast-growing city that attracts some of the largest conventions and business meetings in the world. Each year, over 50,000 people relocate permanently to this city, thanks to the abundance of jobs, low taxes, healthy climate, and beautiful surroundings. With 320 days of sunshine annually, Las Vegas can also boast some of the country's best-golfing facilities. Las Vegas is a growing city that gets bigger every year, with more spectacular hotels and casinos being designed and built to amaze and entertain people from all over the world. Beyond the famous five-mile Las Vegas Strip, there is also the historically exciting Fremont Street, the home of the original casinos that started this very Vegas craze back in the 1930s. Millions of tourists come to see the Fremont Experience every year, where an incredible light and sound show projected onto a domed structure covers several blocks in the downtown area.

You never know what to expect: giant flower sculptures celebrating the New Year, koi ponds and pagodas, enormous jade medallions and animatronic figurines, whimsical architectural elements and fantastical scenes.

Caesars Palace

An iconic landmark on the Las Vegas Strip and featured in countless movies and TV series, Caesars Palace is a massive luxury hotel and casino.

Caesars Palace offers unique shopping experiences and plenty of top-notch entertainment.

Fremont Street Experience

The Fremont Street Experience is a highly successful attempt to draw the millions of visitors back to the downtown area. The domed-canopy 90 feet (27,5 meters) above the street was constructed along five city blocks, lined with some of the oldest casinos in Las Vegas. Every evening from sundown to midnight, the canopy becomes a giant screen showing high resolution images accompanied by concert-quality sound. At the top of each hour, visitors pour into the streets, looking skyward in anticipation of one of the six different shows lasting six to nine minutes.

High Roller

The High Roller is currently the world's tallest Ferris wheel in the world, as its 550 feet beat both the London Eye and the Singapore Flyer when it comes to height. For one of the best views combined with a fun experience, take a half-hour ride and discover the city from a whole new angle, with 360-degree views and stares in awe. While an informative video will explain interesting and surprising facts about Las Vegas, the sunset here becomes even more beautiful.

The Strip

The Las Vegas Strip is probably the world's best-known boulevard stretch, so do prepare yourself for an intense few hours among casinos, restaurants, stores, top-notch hotels, and many other establishments. One of the most popular activities is taking pictures with people dressed up as the famous, and one of the choices is Marilyn Monroe, Elvis, and even Alan from the movie "The Hangover." After having been here during the day, come back at night to rediscover the Strip, and for getting both dizzy and amazed in this sea of shimmering neon lights.

The Venetian Resort Las Vegas

Upon entering, you will receive a boarding ticket from an actual Titanic passenger, with some information about that person. And at the end of your visit, you will find out if this person survived the catastrophe or not.

Do & See

"O" Cirque du Soleil

At the opera house of Bellagio, an internationally-renowned cast of world-class acrobats, synchronized swimmers and divers performs the show "O" above the water. The first three rows are the 'wet seats', as to the distance with the stage, so keep this in mind when choosing a sitting area!

Beyond Las Vegas

There are over 100 different tours offered by a variety of companies in Las Vegas, including sightseeing to the Hoover Dam, Grand Canyon, Lake Mead, the Colorado River, Red Rock, the Valley of Fire, and Mount Charleston. The tours last from 2 to 10 hours, and they can be taken by van, bus, aeroplane, boat, or helicopter. One of the most exciting tours is the Grand Canyon Sunset Tour: leave by helicopter, make a low-level flight over the Hoover Dam and Lake Mead, and land at the Grand Canyon for a Champagne picnic at sunset before returning to the lights of the Las Vegas Strip. If you have a car, it is an easy drive from the Las Vegas Strip to the Hoover Dam and Lake Mead (31 miles/51 km), Mount Charleston (40 miles/64 km), Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area (15 miles/24 km) and the Valley of Fire (53 miles/85 km).

Death Valley National Park

Death Valley is a low, hot and dry national park of over 3 million acres within the Mojave Desert, east of the Sierra Mountains and close to the border of California and Nevada. This area holds the record for the hottest July temperature ever recorded at Furnace Creek. On July 10, 1913, temperatures reached stunning 134 °F (56.7 °C). So, do not forget to pack your sunscreen and a couple of water bottles. And do watch out for rattlesnakes!

Eiffel Tower Experience

There is no need to leave US soil to have a romantic meal atop the Eiffel Tower. Visit this Las Vegas landmark to dine with a 460-foot-high and a 360-degree city view over the breathtaking Bellagio fountains. Rise above the crowded Las Vegas Boulevard in Paris Las Vegas, and enjoy some fine-dining whilst looking at one of the most beautiful views of Las Vegas. Do not forget to immortalize this moment by taking a professional picture in 'France in Vegas'.

Fall of Atlantis Fountain Show

Every hour, the Fall of Atlantis Fountain Show is presented in the Forum Shops next to the Cheesecake Factory, including the mythical King Atlas, sibling greed, a 20-foot winged beast, fire, floods, and best of all, giant talking statues. The story behind the show is that King Atlantis is unable to make a decision between his heirs, and about who will rule the kingdom, since they all want to destroy each other for the opportunity to be the next ruler.

Gambling

Las Vegas is not called 'Sin City' for nothing! There is no doubt about — gambling is Las Vegas' most advertised attraction. There is a level for every visitor: experienced and first-timer, as most casinos offer free lessons that usually take place in the morning hours on table games such as Blackjack, Craps, and Roulette. The new penny slots are probably the most popular among the recreational gambler as to the bonus games within the games themselves. While the jackpots are, of course, not nearly as large as dollar slots, these games are fun and entertaining anyways, and you can still win some money or at least have fun gambling it away. Be confident, learn the games you want to play, look up some basic casino etiquette and remember to limit your losses.

Grand Canyon National Park

The Grand Canyon is one of America’s most majestic natural wonders, with its layered bands of red rock revealing millions of years of geological history. The Grand Canyon itself is 18 miles (29 km) wide, and a mile (1,6 km) deep. It is possible to hike 9 miles (14,5 km) down the Bright Angel Trail to the very bottom, and this quite tough walk is most certainly worth it! There are many spots where you can stop to appreciate the Grand Canyon National Park's beauty. Viewpoints include Mather Point, Yavapai Observation Station and architect Mary Colter’s Lookout Studio and her Desert View Watchtower. Lipan Point, with wide views of the canyon and Colorado River, is a popular, especially at sunrise and sunset.

Hoover Dam

Hoover Dam is a national historic landmark and the highest concrete dam in the Western Hemisphere, as it is more than 725 feet (220 m) above the Colorado River. Once known as Boulder Dam, this concrete arch-gravity dam on the border between Arizona and Nevada has 17 generators that produce 4 billion kilowatts of electricity a year, which makes it one of the country’s largest hydroelectric power facilities. Named after President Herbert Hoover, and dedicated by President Franklin Roosevelt, the Hoover Dam is visited by nearly one million people each year. Visitors can take tours inside the Hoover Dam, check out the exhibits at the Government's Visitor Center or just walk on top of this massive marvel of engineering.

A tip from locals and regular guests: try the sesame-seared tuna!

Delmonico Steakhouse

Delmonico is an all-American Steakhouse with a Creole influence, the New Orleans Style.

Guy Fieri's Vegas Kitchen & Bar

Afterwards you can take your pick from the great beer selection, of course. The Crown & Anchor Pub believe that a dog truly is a man's best friend, so you are welcome to bring your dog to the patio.

Don't Tell Mama

Tourist Information

Best Time to Visit

Las Vegas is not only known for its casinos and its entertainment but also for its extremely hot weather — the city is smack in the middle of the desert after all. The best time to visit the city is in autumn, from September to November, and in spring, from March to May, when the temperatures are around 70–77 F (20-25 C). During the winter time, the amount of tourists is great, especially during the holidays, so try to plan a mid-week trip, as both the plane tickets and hotel prices are significantly lower in comparison to the weekend.

Passport / Visa

Citizens of the Schengen countries, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and the Kingdom of Brunei can visit the United States for up to 90 days without applying for a visa (as well as citizens of Andorra, Liechtenstein, Monaco and San Marino). Citizens of these countries must obtain an ESTA (Electronic System for Travel Authorization) before traveling. All other travelers must obtain a visa before visiting the United States. International travelers need a passport that is valid for at least 3 months after the end of their intended trip to enter the country.

Harry Reid International Airport (LAS)

Over 100,000 people pass through the Harry Reid International Airport every day. While numerous Airport Shuttles are available 24 hours a day, taxis also provide their services round the clock, and it takes about 15 minutes to get from the airport to any Strip hotel.

Public Transport

Sidewalks are always packed, during both day and night, but the well-lit streets and elevated crossovers make it safe and easy to traverse the busy Las Vegas Boulevard. The Strip is divided into three sections, and if you want to visit another casino in the same area, walking is certainly the best option. If you wish to navigate from the South Strip to the North Strip, however, you will need to take a taxi, private car or bus. RTC Buses are run by the Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada (RTC). The Bonneville Transit Center is the transfer point for many routes. While most routes cost around $2 or $1, you can also buy a 24-hours pass for $8. Launched July 2004, the Monorail has stations at Sahara’s, Las Vegas Hilton, Harrah's/Imperial Palace, Bally’s, Paris and the MGM Grand. The first station of the Monorail is the SLS station, where tickets can also be purchased.

Taxi

Taxis are one of the most used means of transportation in Las Vegas. Every hotel and casino has a taxi stand at the front door. Keep in mind that there is a small charge for the time the taxi has to wait for its passengers. One of the many taxi companies is Kabit. You can book a cab through their website. Of course, Uber and Lyft have a large presence in the transportation market, too.

Electricity

All power sockets in the United States provide a standard voltage of 120V with a standard frequency of 60Hz. Plug type A has two flat parallel pins.

FAQ

– What's the cheapest month to go to Vegas? You are most likely to find cheap flights and hotel deals in Las Vegas in January. August and October are also worth checking. To stay within budget avoid traveling during major holidays such as Valentine's Day and New Year’s. – What is the 20 dollar trick in Vegas? The so-called $20 trick is an attempt to get a room upgrade by slipping a $20 to the hotel receptionist when you give them your credit card and ID. There is no certainty that this will workout, but being extra nice and tipping may well lead to some perks. – Does Vegas get cold at night? Some may find it counterintuitive, but deserts can get pretty cold at night. While from July to August the temperature rarely dips below 70 F (21 C), on about half of winter nights the temperature does drop below 40 F (4 C). – What should I avoid in Las Vegas? When in Vegas, avoid wearing uncomfortable shoes. Remember to stay hydrated. ATMs at casinos usually have high withdrawal fees, so get your cash elsewhere. Tip well for better service. – Are drinks still free in Vegas? You can order almost any type of drink for free when gambling on the casino floor in Las Vegas. Most casinos have a limit of two drinks per person per order — be that fruit juice or shots. Drinks may be free, but remember to leave a tip. $1-2 per drink is customary. – Is Las Vegas safe for a single woman? Las Vegas is as safe as any other large city where people consume alcohol. As a solo traveler, it’s a good idea to stick to the well-lit tourist areas. Use the same common-sense safety practices as anywhere else in the world: mind your drinks, don't go to private places with new friends, and if you do — make sure someone you trust knows where you are and with whom. – How to get around in Las Vegas? Obviously, the car is king, but renting your own vehicle might not be the most practical option. The best way to get around Las Vegas is by taxi, a ride-hailing option like Uber or Lyft. The cheapest option is to take a municipal bus, but it’s also the slowest option.

Pharmacy

Chain pharmacies — CVS Pharmacy, Rite Aid Pharmacy, Walgreens etc. — and smaller neighborhood stores operate Las Vegas. While working hours may greatly vary, a few are open 24/7. Pharmacy signs are often in red and white, and they are often located inside department stores. Most pharmacies sell both prescription and over the counter medicine.
