WHY LAS VEGAS

The heart-pounding, jaw-dropping city of Las Vegas is America’s center of dazzling lights, bold entertainment, and whirling adventure. The concept of artificiality is not a negative thing in the city, in that it’s done in such a dramatic and fascinating way that it’s genuine. You’ll find quirky tributes to grand places of the world, from the Eiffel Tower to Egyptian pyramids to the Brooklyn Bridge to Venetian gondolas. It’s a place to dance the night away, challenge your honey at a casino table, or even strap on a parachute for sky diving.

QUICK TIPS
•  FLYING TIME: Approximate flying time from New York: 4.5 hours*
•  LENGTH OF STAY: Recommended: 4 or more days
•  WHEN TO GO: Best time: September - May
    *Add additional time if leaving from other U.S. cities including connecting time between flights.

  

Why Go

- A strip that provides endless fun in a short walking distance
- A range of upscale clubs to gritty rock houses
- A free-spirited attitude
- Inventive venues (it takes a lot to stand out!)
- Thrills around the clock

When To Go

Las Vegas can be very hot in the summer, but the other months range from 50s-80s F. In winter the nights get chilly, yet during the day you can get by with a light jacket. Since many conventions take place in the city, you may want to plan your trip around potential rushes.

Entry Requirements

Passport required to enter the U.S. Must be valid for six months after return date of travel. Check with your travel professional or local consulate for entry visa requirements.

What To See

The Strip: The heart of Las Vegas, with a multitude of shows and activities. But don’t let the bustle get you in a hurry: it’s an ideal place to take a leisurely stroll and soak your surroundings.

Multi-sensory lounges and clubs:
Including Eye Candy Sound Lounge, Jet, and Minus5 Ice Lounge (which is made entirely from ice!)

Bellagio Fountains / Gallery of Fine Art: Enjoy a light and sound show choreographed to a fountain display, and stroll into the gallery to see a variety of museum and private collection artwork.

The Freemont Street Experience: Using some of the largest screens in the world, you can walk or drive right up and enjoy this old-style Vegas treat for free.

Gondola Rides at the Venetian:
One of Italy’s most romantic experiences can be mimicked in the city’s own version, where you can ride the Grand Canal under bridges while serenaded.

Dramatic shopping: The Forum Shops at Caesars Palace: Set inside a theatrical building of carvings and tall columns, or the The Grand Canal Shoppes at the Venetian, for chic stores and tasty treats

The Volcano in front of the Mirage: A spectacle that explodes nightly.

Big Shot at the Stratosphere: A ride that launches you 160 feet straight up followed by a bungee up and down: experience the thrill yourself and then watch others.
