It's Vegas, baby!
It’s Vegas, baby!
A great place to start a road trip
Here we are on the West Coast trip but where do we start? At the beginning, of course. Having just arrived in Vegas by air, you’ll need to get to your hotel and those in the know will agree that the best way is just to get a taxi.
If you want to show up in style, I can arrange a private car or limo at an extra charge but I never include the transfers in Vegas. If you’re coming in by road from Los Angeles, try to time it so you’re hitting Vegas at sundown and into the twilight.
As you get closer to the city, every little hill in the road will provide you a closer and brighter view and a thrill that I can’t really describe…it has to be experienced.
Get checked in and then get out there
Having gotten yourself to the hotel, and checked in, it’s time to experience everything that Vegas is about…glitz and excess! Many go to Vegas for the gambling but the city has changed itself in the last decade or so; this is now a place to take your family and relax or catch some world class entertainment. The old Las Vegas is still there in spirit and all-night drinking, gambling at the best online casinos in usa and cavorting in ยูฟ่าสล็อต are the attractions for a good portion of visitors but the old images of gangsters and corruption are (at least visibly) a thing of the past.
There is more to Vegas than just ‘the strip’; if you want to get away from the high rollers and noise, there are some nice bars and restaurants in the suburbs where you’ll find the ‘locals’. Most residents are relative newcomers and the city continues to grow; I like the East end as it has a suburban feel to it and lacks the pretence of downtown. My favourite casino is Sam’s Town on Boulder Highway (easy to get to by taxi or bus); here you can go elbow to elbow with the diehard bingo players (blue hair included) for just a few dollars, or while away the hours at the penny slot machines. Sam’s, definitely, isn’t the Bellagio or Venetian but it does have an appeal and it won’t break the bank. If you prefer online casinos, you can also try your luck and ลุ้นรางวัลใหญ่กับ UFA.
The best shows anywhere
Entertainment in Vegas is big business and it is here that you will see the best of the best. People fly from all over the world to watch a title fight at the MGM Grand or, on the other end of the spectrum, to see the likes of Celine Dion…you haven’t made it until you’ve played the strip! The shows that are put on by the hotels are fantastical spectacles that cost them millions to produce and some are free…you’ll have to do some research .
There are few ‘Must Do’ things for your time in Vegas :
-See the Grand Canyon (pop me over an e-mail for info on how to do this)
-See the light show on Fremont Street (free)
-The fountains at the Bellagio are amazing
-Buffet, buffet and more buffet (you can get these for free, sometimes) but if you only try one, make it a champagne brunch on the weekend…usually in the range of USD35-40.
-Play golf if you’re a golfer or attend a sporting event, such as baseball
I could go on and on but don’t want to be long-winded so, if you do want more on Vegas, get in touch and we’ll have a chat.
