1. TAKE IN THE SIGHTS ON THE HIGH ROLLER

No trip to Las Vegas is complete without a spin on the brand new High Roller! The High Roller is the world’s tallest observation wheel and topping out at 550ft, you just know you’re going to get the best views of the Las Vegas strip from it! A ride on the High Roller takes 30 minutes and each of the 28 glass enclosed cabins holds up to 40 people.

2. EXPLORE THE WORLD FAMOUS GRAND CANYON

Las Vegas is the main gateway for those wanting to visit the incredible Grand Canyon. With tours to suit every budget, a trip to the Grand Canyon from Las Vegas needs to be on your bucket list. Choose from a helicopter ride, a bus tour or why not hit the open road on your own road trip! If you are planning a trip to the Grand Canyon, be sure to wear comfortable walking shoes and don’t forget to pack that camera!

3. ENJOY THE PARTIES ON FREEMONT STREET

Freemont Street was one of the original streets in Las Vegas and today, it is a haven for excellent casinos and spectacular entertainment and shows. Located in Downtown Las Vegas and just a short taxi ride from the Las Vegas strip, Freemont Street offers free nightly shows that feature 12.5 million lights and 550,000 watts of amazing sound! Shows take place nightly from 6pm and run on the hour. If you would like a taste of ‘old Las Vegas’ and all it’s charm, we definitely recommend a trip out to Freemont Street during your Las Vegas holiday!

There’s no show quite as iconic as the show that’s performed by the Fountains at the Bellagio. The Bellagio Fountains attract visitors from all over the world and once you view this spectacular show, it’s easy to see why! While in Las Vegas, watch the mesmerising Bellagio Fountains sway and dance to music. During the day, expect a relaxing show and at night, watch the fountains come to life! We recommend you take in a show during the day and at night as you are sure to enjoy both experiences!
