Las Vegas’ Strip is littered with bright lights, resorts and casinos on every corner. With entertainment options for people of all ages, from themed hotels to replicas of some of the world’s most iconic landmarks, each day is a new adventure. One day you’ll start exploring the Egyptian Pyramids and finish in Venice, the next you’ll start at the Eiffel Tower and end up in New York City.
​
Vegas is more than casinos with plenty of stage shows available – Cirque du Soleil has several family friendly shows running, and if shopping is more your scene there are shopping malls in many casinos along with two easily accessible good outlet malls.
Las Vegas also serves as a fantastic base from which you can visit the Grand Canyon. If you’re the daring type, take a spectacular helicopter flight into the Canyon, or if you prefer to keep your feet on the ground day trips to both the Canyon’s South and West rim can be arranged for group.
Vegas is an experience you’ll never forget.
