Top Las Vegas Attractions to See

Activities

From Siegfried & Roy’s Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat to riding the Coney Island—style New York—New York roller coaster (has a 144-foot dive and 360-degree somersault), you’ll have plenty to do in Las Vegas. You may want to hike one of the many hiking trails in and around Las Vegas, too. It’s a great opportunity to connect with nature and see the ochre-color rocks, desert flora and fauna. The best trails are in the Red Rock National Conservation Area. Bring plenty of water with you because it gets hot in the desert. For a birds-eye and awe inspiring view of Vegas, take a helicopter tour.

Casinos

What’s the point of taking a Vegas vacation if you’re not going to check out the casinos? Whether you stay at Harrah’s Las Vegas, Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino, Venetian Resort Hotel Casino, or another hotel and resort, try your hand at games such as roulette, black jack, craps, or poker. Play the slots, and you may win big!

The Mob Museum

A visit to Las Vegas would not be complete without seeing The Mob Museum, which sits in the 1933 former federal courthouse and U.S. Post Office downtown. The museum explores the mob world by explaining to visitors how the Mafia operated, how law enforcement brought down local mobsters,
and what happened to wise guys who were caught or sent to jail. Highlights include bricks from the wall of the 1929 St. Valentine’s Day Massacre, and a mock electric chair that ended the lives of mobsters.

Nightlife

Keep in mind that “What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas” is an attitude that most everyone follows. The number of trendy lounges and high-profile nightclubs grows each year. You may even bump into A-list celebrities at one of them. Many new clubs have gambling, so if you get tired of kicking up your heels on the dance floor; take a seat in front of a slot machine and cool off.
