Oh, and also for getting around, the major off-Strip casinos (Hard Rock, Palms, and Rio) have free shuttles to and from the Strip that run a few times a day.

Yeah i figure we can spend some days on the strip and find some other things....any idea of price for things to do off the strip in the dessert? I think we
might do the rent a car and drive out to hoover dam, and my bf mention about a helicopter ride so yeah.

The Hoover Dam Tour isn't that much if I recall correctly - I think $15 per person, but definitely check out the website for the latest info. All I know
about the helicopter rides is that they are far too expensive for me to ever justify.
Red Rock Canyon is like $5 per car. Same with Valley of Fire State
Park.

If you get a chance and want to get out of town a little bit, check out the Valley of Fire and/or Red Rock for beautiful scenery. Little known but gorgeous.

ahhh my trip is less than a week away and still dont know what we will do! lol I am pretty sure we will find something on the strip and will head out to red
rock area and hoover dam but after that ummmm not sure......i am going to try to go through it this weekend with him and get some ideas of what we can do. I
think we might rent a car, but who knows! we might have issues getting a car now bc of my bf doing stupid shit!! that we don't know how it will go down

What other types of suggestions are you looking for?
In addition to what has already been listed, there is a Vegas Mob Tour and Haunted Vegas Tour that are decent. |

Casinos and eating alone can easily take up an entire day.
Throw in some of the museums (wax museum, Atomic Testing, Liberace, Bellagio Art
Gallery, etc.) and you have a very full day.
