If you are looking for a fun vacation but don't want to go overseas, then Las Vegas is the perfect
vacation destination for you.
Las Vegas trips will provide you with everything you desire: delectable food, intriguing entertainment, and enough gambling to make your head spin.
Here are some of the best things Las Vegas trips has to offer that you won't want to miss out on.
Walk the Strip
A cheap and fun activity is simply to walk The Strip. Many of the hotels even have free entertainment that you can admire. The most popular free display is the fountains at the Bellagio, in which the water sprouts up in different patterns, in perfect rhythm to the accompanying music. Some other shows worth seeing are Sirens of TI (Treasure Island, if you haven't been there in a while) and the Show in the Sky at Rio. Don't forget to check out the M&M factory and the
lion at MGM Grand hotel and casino on your adventure.
Go to a Show
When it comes to
Las Vegas trips, they are just not complete without taking in a show. Las Vegas is home to some of the best entertainers in the country. Even though the tickets can be pricey, the experience is totally worth it. The Cirque du Soleil shows are definitely worth their price tag. They combine awe-inspiring acrobatics with astounding sets and heart-pumping music. There are several different themes of shows, but the KA show at MGM is definitely an experience not soon to be forgotten. If you can afford it, splurge to get front-row seats.
Take it Downtown
Sure, the strip is what
Las Vegas trips are famous for, but that doesn't mean you should avoid downtown. In fact, downtown Vegas has a charm all its own. For starters, you will want to make sure to see the free Fremont Street Experience laser show. It is alluring and definitely worth checking out at least once. However, the best part of heading downtown is the cheap food and cheap gambling.
Take a Dive
Las Vegas is in the desert, so chances are you are going to need a way to cool off at some point. Luckily, many of the hotels have very nice pools. However, none of them compare to the one at Mandalay Bay. They have a full wave pool complete with a sandy beach and lazy river where you can drift your worries away.
