Best At Las Vegas Holidays

For many people, holidays in Las Vegas are centralised on one thing: gambling. This neon-lit city in the desert has become one of the premiere holiday destinations in the world for those who like extravagance, over-the-top shows and of course, casinos. The famous Las Vegas Strip is one of the most recognisable and iconic landscapes in the world, but there is a lot more to this relatively newly-founded city than simply being a gamblers paradise.

For those seeking more natural beauty, Las Vegas is ideally situated both for trips to Death Valley, the epic Grand Canyon, the red-walled canyons of Zion National Park and the haunting Mojave Desert. Indeed, during winter months, skiers can find plenty to occupy themselves at Las Vegas Ski and Snowboard resort, while mountain biking enthusiasts will find the challenging Bootleg Canyon just 30 minutes south of the city’s major attractions.

Of course, if you are on a holiday in Las Vegas, you don’t need to travel outside the city for entertainment. The destination boasts many outstanding bars and nightclubs, featuring live music and discos throughout the week and especially on weekends. Don’t forget, if you are gambling in a casino drinks are usually free (provided you tip the server $1) but even if you want to stay off the slots, there are many themed bars around the city offering great entertainment. Some of the best include Rock Cafe at the Imperial Palace, 3121 at Rio and you can rub shoulders with NBA stars at XS Nightclub at Encore.

The reasons for visiting Las Vegas can be many and varied, from getting married, to a golfing holiday, from a gambling weekend with friends, to a family trip to see the area’s outstanding natural beauty. Whatever your choice, the resorts in Las Vegas have a package to suit and it is a trip that you will remember for a lifetime.
