About Las Vegas

Including tips for the best time to visit Las Vegas

Awash with bright lights and neon signs, Las Vegas is a city of fun, freedom and fabulousness – as its iconic welcome sign promises.

Most of the Sin City’s action is concentrated in the Las Vegas Strip – a stretch of road lined with upscale casinos, Michelin-starred restaurants and legendary hotels. You can try your luck at the fabled casinos or check out a show from Vegas’ enviable lineup – from enchanting Cirque du Soleil acts to top musicians performing at its pulsing clubs.

Vegas resorts are designed as entire worlds of their own, complete with casinos, restaurants, spas, shopping centres and activities unique to their theme. Take a gondola ride on the canals of the Venetian, live like Roman royalty at Caesars Palace or experience mythical Egyptian grandeur at the Luxor Hotel. While it’s tempting to spend the entire holiday exploring your resort, make some time for Bellagio’s dancing fountains and botanical gardens, and head to the Neon Museum for an artsy display of retro signage lit up anew. A spin on the 550-feet tall High Roller will give you a glimpse of the world’s wonders, with replicas of the Eiffel Tower, the Giza Pyramid and New York’s skyline dotting the glittering city below.

A fluorescent oasis amidst the Mojave Desert, Vegas is surrounded by mountains and dramatic landscapes offering exhilarating activities and stunning views. Hike up Mount Charleston, zipline over the Bootleg Canyon or simply drive through Red Rock Canyon for a respite from the city’s heady energy.

I was glad I could stay here with my pet.

14 May 2024

I was glad I could stay here with my pet. The property grounds are nice and well-kept, but I didn't see any security patrolling the grounds. There seemed to be people hanging out in the parking lots living in their vehicles, and I didn't feel safe outside especially at night when I would have to take my dog out to use the restroom. The lady at the front desk was very nice when she checked me in and the lady working at the restaurant was very friendly and helped me order a breakfast sandwich. I don't understand why they did not allow anyone to use the large pool during the week. They do have 2 other pools but the one only for weekends seemed to be much nicer. I did go gamble at several casinos, and I guess I am only a depositor so someone else can win the big pay outs. I couldn't even win $5 it was ridiculous. This visit was a total disappointment!

Stayed at Southpoint for two days, never left so you would have to venture out to find out. Although, we have been all over Las Vegas for years, it has gotten really expensive and some parts like downtown, really disgusting. Not for kids at all unless you stay at a kid oriented place and not go to far from that. Overall, we usually have fun there and would do back.

Not for me!

11 May 2024

Not for me! I wanted to see real Las Vegas but all roads and bus passes lead to the strip. The Deuce and the monorail all were challenging and must go through a LOT of each casino you were near. I felt manipulated by the town but saw on local news places to go like the (seems weird but important) Atomic Museum. We don't all don't have travel agents to point out all of the sites that aren't full-on tourist traps but it was good to see once.

Too hot on days so be prepared lots of stairs, escalators, walk bridges, so if you dont like heights its hard work,, go into hotels walk through cooling off and so many shops/eateries/themed areas. Use a good size cross body bag or small back pack, take photo ID and a water bottle everywhere.

Las Vegas wasn't the main focus of our trip.

9 May 2024

Las Vegas wasn't the main focus of our trip. Our stay in Las Vegas was on the way to and from the Grand Canyon. Was good for that purpose, due the large number of flight selections in and out of Las Vegas and the large amount of available accommodations.

Vegas is Vegas, it's just mental.

7 May 2024

Vegas is Vegas, it's just mental. Been there 4 times since the 80s. Used to take 2 miles to walk the strip, now it's 10 as you have to go on 8 walkways and into 6 casino's takes forever. the Duce bus takes 4 hours to do a roundtrip. it's all about "taking your money" it's a unique place, but it's not a cheap place get a car if you want to do the dam or the Grand Canyon. If you like to fly do a night-time helicopter trip over the strip will blow your mind Same price as the rip-off Sphere
