Las Vegas rejsetips

For an outdoor event, consider heading to the Springs Reserve to see how natural springs allowed early settlers of the Las Vegas regions to survive the scorching Mojave Desert heat. A great look into the natural landscape of the Las Vegas area, free to visit, and less than 4 miles away from downtown – or you can see it as part of a Death Valley day trip. The Hoover Dam lies only a stone’s throw from the strip and gives visitors a glimpse into what was once the largest electric power generator of its time. This massive project is a historical timepiece and the Hoover Dam tour is cheap (~$11), while providing an intrusting retrospective into this massive project which changed the course of more than just a river. Great panoramic views too. A Red Rock Canyon tour is a perfect day trip for all those who love the rugged outdoors, especially rock climbers. Here you’ll find beautiful canyons of red rock carved out by long-extinct riverbeds and a 100-metre summit.

If you’re looking for just a helicopter tour, a 45-minute flight over the Grand Canyon from Tusayan, Arizona is a smart option, as it allows you to fly over both the North and South Rims, as well as the inspiring natural landmarks like Painted Desert, Desert View Watchtower, Marble Canyon, Point Imperial and the Dragon Corridor, the widest and deepest section of the Grand Canyon. You don’t have to fly to get aerial views over the canyon, as the Grand Canyon Skywalk allows you to step over the canyon edge via a translucent platform. The experience is not for the faint of heart, as it’s the world’s highest man-made structure by more than 2,300 feet (700 meters). And while it may make your stomach do some flips, it also provides stunning 720-degree views of the Colorado River, the canyon’s West Rim and the famous Eagle Point, a rock formation resembling an eagle in flight.

Du kan også vælge afgangene Ultimate, Deluxe og Express eller Spring-køen-over og oplev det bedste af Grand Canyon med seværdighederne inkluderet i turen. Vi kan også varmt anbefale dagture til Grand Canyon fra Las Vegas.

Grand Canyon er et af verdens syv naturlige vidundere og er helt klart en oplevelse, som man ikke må gå glip af. Hvis du ikke har så meget tid eller blot er interesseret i at opleve Grand Canyon fra en anden vinkel, så bør du overveje en tur med fly eller helikopter. Turene afgår typisk fra Las Vegas, og de gør det nemt, hurtigt og sikkert at opleve alle tre kløfter. Det bedste af det hele er, at du får en fantastisk udsigt (både ved solopgang og solnedgang) fra luften. Du kan beundre de evigt skiftende farver på kløftens sider i solnedgangens skær på en helikoptertur til West Rim, hvor I lander dybt nede i kløften til en uforglemmelig picnic med champagne. Eller du kan udforske Grand Canyon National Park langs South Rim med en betagende udsigt fra Mather Point og Bright Angel Lodge Observatory. Eller du kan opleve en ægte ranch i drift ved den fjerntliggende North Rim, hvor I lander med et fly på en afsides flyveplads dybt nede i kløften.

If you’re in Vegas, you could always head out by car to see this scenic feat of engineering, but the best way to appreciate its scale is to see it from the air. There are numerous options. One of the most memorable will have you setting off at dusk, just as the lights of the Strip are asserting themselves against the darkening desert sky and the last of the day’s rays light up the dam and Lake Mead. A longer trip will take you to the area’s great natural wonder, the Grand Canyon, in a breathtaking 45 minute flight passing over the dam and landing in the canyon itself where you’ll enjoy a champagne picnic before heading back for a night of Vegas thrills. If you want to get more out of your desert adventure, head out in the afternoon for a helicopter flight which gives you great views of Hoover Dam before arriving at the Grand Canyon. “At”? I meant “in”. Yes, you’ll descend 1,500 feet (450 meters) down to the canyon floor.

While Las Vegas has been perfunctorily touting itself as family-friendly for several years, its “What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas” marketing campaign and TV commercials featuring scantily clad ladies don’t do much to reassure parents that Vegas is, in fact, okay for their offspring. The Strip is full of restaurants and other locales where people under 18 are simply not allowed, but there are attractions and shows suitable for and, even aimed at, your kids. Spend your evening with the zany guys of the Blue Man Group, or be captivated by Mark Hammer's uncanny sleight of hand as he performs unbelievable magic tricks. Or wander to the MGM Grand for CSI: The Experience, an interactive attraction where you’ll solve a “crime,” and MGM’s famous Lion Habitat, where descendants of MGM Studio’s lion (seen roaring at the beginning of MGM movies) hang out in a replica African environment; CSI is open until 10pm and the Lion Habitat closes at 7pm.

For a romantic evening, make your way over to the New York-New York Hotel and embrace the sexuality and gawk-worthiness of "Zumanity."

Sure, you can drive through the desert or even walk through the desert with a horse with no name. But there's only one way to really experience the desert and that's on an adrenaline-charged dune-buggy ride! Get behind the wheel of a one- or two-seater dune buggy, wearing a full-face helmet and harness of course, properly prepped about the ins and outs of driving these crazy-looking vehicles – and you get to drive off-road through some of the most challenging terrain in the USA. Dune-buggy rides from Las Vegas blaze their way through the Valley of Fire and the Nellis Dunes. You might whiz past big-horn sheep in the red, red desert of the Valley of Fire, a state park 50 miles (80 km) northeast of Las Vegas. This landscape of red sandstone rocks and sand dunes lights up in the sunshine, especially at sunrise and dusk. You'll see rocks eroded into incredible shapes at Valley of Fire, plus ancient petroglyph carvings.

From Carrot Top’s brazen antics and equally brazen orange hair at the Luxor to Penn and Teller, the famous oddball duo (one doesn’t speak) who combine laughs with mystifying illusions and stunts at Rio, Las Vegas offers plenty of comic relief when you need to get your mind off how much money you lost at the blackjack tables. You’ll find smaller names in comedy, as well; the Mentalist, also known as Gerry McCambridge , adds mindreading to his comedy at Planet Hollywood while Vinnie Favorito offers stand-up comedy, often at the expense of the audience, at the Flamingo. Vegas comedy clubs, where you’ll get an ever-changing lineup of comedians, include the LA Comedy Club at Four Queens and Second City at the Flamingo.

Want a helicopter wedding? No problem. Looking for a spectacular outdoor setting? Easy. In a hurry, on a budget and don’t want to get out of your car? Not an issue.

The mighty Colorado River runs from Colorado through Utah, Arizona, Nevada and California and into Mexico. The approximate 1,450-mile (2,330-kilometer) river is most well-known for being the waterway that runs through the Grand Canyon, Hoover Dam and the Black Canyon. River-rafting in either the Grand Canyon or Black Canyon is an exciting activity that will get you out of the neon jungle and into an area deeply blessed by Mother Nature; it’s especially welcome on a hot Vegas day. Rafting the waters through the Black Canyon is actually a calm experience; there are no rapids – you’ll simply float along, maybe stop for a swim, admire the canyon’s beauty and look for wildlife. If you’re after true white-water rafting, the Grand Canyon is where you want to be. Most tours from Vegas hit class 3 to 6 rapids (on the Grand Canyon’s scale of 1 to 10) for a wet and wild ride that is a must-do for outdoor-enthusiasts.
