Top 10 Things to do Good for Big Groups in Las Vegas, Nevada (NV)
Whether you’re a high roller or a low-key lounger, Las Vegas has something to suit your vacation taste. Sample fare from top chefs and cornucopian buffets, try your luck at one of the world’s premier casinos, or take in a spectacular show. Just wandering the Strip is enough to get your heart pumping. Once you’ve had enough of the razzle-dazzle, wave hello to the toothy sea life at the Mandalay Bay Shark Reef, hike Red Rock Canyon, or visit the Neon Museum, where old signs take on new life.

We couldn't believe how huge it was when we walked in and didn't walk out again for approximately 2 hours!!! The amount of shops is incredible but you know how the saying goes... "if you have to ask the price it's too expensive".... And we stuck to the window shopping on that basis alone. There are certainly some high-end shops as well as favorites such as Pandora and we were pleasantly surprised to find the Cheesecake Factory which we had been hopeful to find and try. Loved walking around though.....maybe another return after a casino or lottery win. ????

Spent half a day in this park in January when we wanted to get out of Vegas and do some hiking and exploring. The park fee for a vehicle day pass is $15 and well worth the time spent here. It was just over 60 degrees so plenty comfortable for us northerners and we wore shorts with a long sleeve top, had on sunscreen and carried water on our hikes. There is a 13 mile one way scenic loop which you can drive through and see plenty just stopping at the overlooks. There are also many hiking trails ranging from easy to moderate to difficult with a variety of elevation rises and lengths that you can choose from to see petroglyphs, hidden falls, scenic views and nature’s beauty more close up. The guide which you can access online or pick up in paper form has a map and very good descriptions of all scenic views, overlooks and hiking trails. Be aware that if you plan to rely on your phone, service is not reliable throughout the park. I recommend arriving early to beat the crowds especially on weekends or when the weather is more inviting. There is a visitor and information building with bathrooms and some information on the park and animals and land but stop on your way in because with a one-way route you won’t have another opportunity. We spent about 4 hours in the park and hit a few of the highlights, stopped at the scenic overlooks and hiked 4 different trails. Check park hours as well because they vary with the seasons. We will be back to explore the area more but the time we spent gave us time to explore the park and hit the highlights.

this is the first time I went up to the observation deck and it was amazing .. BEST PLACE for sunset for sure!!! and if you are a thrill seeker, you can bungy off the side or ride the slider that takes you off the side of the top of the Stratosphere -just plain crazy to watch but alot of people did it- you ride up the elevator at 21 miles and hour - a must see

Reviewed By JadePlant10 - McLean, United States
We absolutely loved the Neon Museum - we did General Admission for the Boneyard with the special Tim Burton elements and we also did the Brilliant light show. The Brilliant light show was fun, but I preferred walking through the main area and having the opportunity to take a lot of photos and really take in the history. We used the app and that was very cool; there were also some docents posted around that also provided information if you want it. I thought the whole exhibit was very well organized - from the check-in to each section and how they lead you around. We did have a car so that made it easy to get there and back from the strip. Definitely recommend going at night! On a side note - we wanted to have dinner somewhere local/not on the strip and asked the people at the help desk for recommendations. They pointed us towards Casa Don Juan and it was really great - so extra thanks to the person at the desk that gave us that information!

The Las Vegas Strip is simply amazing to see. My first time in Vegas Amazing people watching Amazing photography Amazing shopping Amazing Restaurants/Food Amazing Casinos (Many of course) Amazing Shows/Entertainment Bring comfortable running shoes as the strip is massif. You could not possibly walk the entire strip and see everything in one day. Don't forget to check out one of the most amazing and only free things on the strip The Bellagio Fountains Show The Strip is divided up into 3 sections South, Central and North Yes the strip is that large. Bring lots of money or credit as everything is very expensive on Las Vegas Strip. We will be coming back to Las Vegas Strip many more times and would recommend to anyone to see the Las Vegas Strip at least once in their life as there is nowhere else in the world like this. You don't need to be a gambler to visit Las Vegas as there is so much to see and do however if you do gamble you will be in heaven.
