The entertainment capital of the world promises excitement for all who visit, with amazing hotels, star-studded shows and non-stop gambling in the world's largest casinos. You can win a fortune at the roll of a dice, and then spend the lot in boutique shopping malls, nightclubs or in the bewildering array of places to eat. Las Vegas is also a major gateway to southwest America's finest national parks - a flight-seeing excursion to the Grand Canyon is highly recommended.
4WD INTO THE DESERTTake a jeep ride into the desert and see the stark beauty of the Nevada landscape, with a little excitement thrown in for good measure.
SEE BELLAGIO'S FOUNTAINS If you don't want to splash the cash on a Vegas show make sure you stop to see the incredible free performance of the Bellagio's fountains.
TAKE A THRILL Feeling brave? Really breave? If so, try one of the 'thrill' rides on the top of the Stratosphere Hotel and Casino.
FLY IN A HELICOPTER Take a helicopter tour over the Hoover Dam and out to the Grand Canyon.
STAY 5* Vegas has a huge choice of hotels. They start at the most basic of motels but if your budget can afford it try and stay in one of the extravagant hotels.
