What to do in Las Vegas
Las Vegas is known for its clubs and casinos. Of course, the most popular clubs in Las Vegas are the larger clubs that host the best DJs and music performances. If that’s what you are looking for, check out the Omnia Nightclub, Marquee, Drai’s Nightclub or the JEWEL Nightclub.
When you’ve had enough of gambling and partying, the alternatives are endless. If you’re feeling adventurous, take a day trip from Las Vegas to the Grand Canyon, which is a five-hour drive from town. You and your girls will get there faster on luxurious helicopter tours. Other places include the Neon Boneyard, a trip to Red Rock Canyon, or explore Death Valley.
Getting around Las Vegas
Check with your hotel to see if they offer free shuttles to the Las Vegas Strip. Other routes available in the city are the monorail or Uber.
