Answer 3

Well being born and raised here (in Vegas) I can tell you a few things... First of all, the shows are amazing. If you haven't been to one, I highly recommend it! It is worth every penny.

If you're looking to get out of the city and be a little more adventurous... Lake Mead, Red Rock or Valley of Fire are all really cool. There are several beaches and marinas at the lake and they all have boat and seadoo rentals for the day or just half day. Red Rock is really fun if you are into riding 4-wheelers. You can rent a quad and go on a trail. Valley of Fire is more historical and you can walk around the park and take a picnic or whatever. The summer is coming though and it gets REALLY hot up there. Also, you could drive up to Zion National Park in Utah (it's about 2.5 hours) where you can hike and it is absolutely beautiful!

Hope these ideas help!

Answer 4

We go to Vegas twice a year, and even though we havent gotten sick of shows there is always lots to do. Are you the adventerous type? You could try skydiving. LA is about 3 hours and 45 mins away. There is also the Fremont Street Experience. Maybe a helicopter tour over the Grand Canyon?

Answer 5

There is a hotel (I think) with a roller coaster that winds around the top. If I ever get back to that town I will ride that thing. I've seen film taken from the car in motion. It was shot at night with all the city lights. I thought it was spectacular. I will ride that thing at about 1:00 AM. When the night is its darkest.

Answer 6

just came back from vegas you should go to the red rock canyon it is not far from vegas, valley of the fire is also a good place to go. You can also see some of the magic shows the tropicana has a good one.

Answer 7

I like the magic shows. I saw eight different magic shows in one week in Las Vegas. It was cool. Circue Du Soleil has a couple of really good shows there: Mystere and O. Ka is really boring.

Answer 8

Either you continue towards California to see the sites and you can stop and see Disney World and other good sites.

Or go backwards and visit Arizona you have plenty to see.

Sites to see:

Old Tuscon, Grand Canyon which you can go down and visit by riding a burro, Phoenix, and so on and so on.

Answer 9

OK, here's my whole list, cross off what you have done.

When you go to Las Vegas these usual things you will want to see for FREE:

1. Number one on my list is to watch the fountains displays in front of the Bellagio hotel. It usually runs every 15 minutes in summers starting at 3:00 PM; runs continuously until about midnight. Each show is different (there are more than 20 different tunes choreographed) so stay and watch at least 2 or 3. ALSO, go inside the Bellagio hotel to its lobby and view the beautiful glass sculptured ceiling AND the seasonal floral arrangements in the Atrium.

2. The “Sirens of TI” show (spectacular) in from of the Treasure Island Hotel; it runs every 90 minutes starting at about 4:30 PM. Simply stand on the sidewalk in front of the TI Hotel.

3. The volcano erupt in from of the Mirage Hotel; starting at dark until midnight. Again, just stand on the sidewalk in front of the hotel.

4. Go down to Fremont Street and see the light shows. There are usually 3 or 4 different shows, starting after dark (about 8:30PM) and lasting about 5 or 10 minutes each.

5. Go to the RIO hotel to see the Masquerade in the Sky show. It is like Mardi Gras parade, only suspended from the ceiling over the gambling floor. It runs every 60 minutes starting about 3:00 PM; the last show starts at 9:30 PM..

6. Go to the MGM Grand hotel to see the Lion habitat. This is better then the tiger habitat at the Mirage Hotel because there are usually trainers in with lions to keep them active.

7. Go to the Mirage hotel to see the white tigers that Siegfried and Roy show used. This is kinda passe because the tigers rarely do anything but sit and stare.

8. Go in Caesars Palace and walk through the Forum shops to the first fountain (its spectacular) then take the first fork to the left to go see the aquarium. Then continue on through the shops to the second fountain and wait for the show to start.

9. Go into the Flamingo hotel to see their animal habitat with flamingos and penguins.

10 The Excalibur hotel also has a free show starting at 10:00 AM until 10:00 PM.

If you are a Star Trek Fan, go to the Hilton (off the strip) for "Star Trek The Experience"; it cost about $35.

: People go to Vegas to sightsee as well as gamble. You can see most of the stuff on the Strip by walking, so you don't need a rental car. There is a free monorail between Bellagio and the Monte Carlo Hotel and also another free one between Excalibur, Luxor, and Mandalay Bay. The one on the opposite side of the street which runs from the MGM to the Hilton you have to pay to ride. There is a free bus between Harrahs Hotel to the RIO Hotel that runs every half hour. There is also a free bus that you can get outside the Barbary Coast Casino that will take you to the Orleans and some other off strip casinos.

Plan which hotels/casinos you want to visit each day so you can make the most of your walking and the free monorails and scuttles. When you get to Vegas you will probably have in your hotel room a free guide to the city called either "What's ON" , “Showbiz”or "Las Vegas Today". These are helpful guises as they have a map of the Strip and city with the hotels marked, current hotel shows and prices, plus useful coupons. Some coupons will give you a free souvenir from certain hotels; you just have to take the coupon to the hotel. They also list hotel restaurants and buffets time sand prices.

There are movie theaters in the Palms (multiplex) and also another on the Strip across the street from the Monte Carlo hotel, near the MGM hotel.

If you like to bowl, there are alley's in The Gold Coast Hotel/Casino (beside the RIO) and in the Orleans Hotel Casino. .

RED ROCK CANYON: Its about 20 miles west of Las Vegas out Charleston Blvd (you can pick up that street at the north end of the Strip) It’s a scenic drive-through park. Go early, not in the heat of the day; there's no shade.

HOOVER DAM: Drive about 30 miles southeast of Vegas and go to Hoover Dam; the National Park Service offers tours there (@ $15.) and its interesting stuff. Go on past Hoover dam to Boulder City and then to Lake Meade for a swim and/or to visit the new casino there. Also, there are tour companies that will take you on a cruise of the river below Hoover Dam. Check the Vegas web sites.

VALLEY OF FIRE STATE PARK: Drive about 35 miles north of Vegas on I-15 and go to Valley of Fire State Park, another scenic park area.

ZION NATION PARK: It’s a long drive (about 2-3 hours), but you can drive North on I-15 to Zion National Park and back in one day.

DEATH VALLEY: If you like to visit National Parks, drive about an hour and a half south of Vegas on I-15 and take RT-127 to Death Valley National Park (total drive may be 3 hrs each way).

Answer 10

why did you bother with the hoover dam? the fact that you have already gone there... i suppose death valley must be your next stop.

If you were serious, hit the nightclubs.
