Travel Tips

You should definately gamble - I mean that IS the main attraction and the reason Vegas exists. But there are tons of other things to do in that city:

1. Drink at clubs and lounges - RAIN (PALMS casino) and PURE (Caesar's Palace) are amongst the best two clubs with the best dance floors, decor, and setup. You can drink all night and day in vegas (no last call in Vegas!)

2. If you're into rides, then the roller coaster at NEWYORK NEWYORK casino is the best roller coaster in Vegas. There is also the Big Shot and INSANITY rides atop of the Stratosphere Casino (with the best views in the city, as good as a helicopter view).

3. Eat at buffets and other great restaurants. Buffets like Bellagio's or Wynn's have trancended the common buffet of stale food. They serve gourmet dishes like Kobe beef and hand made desserts. Great food, good service, clean and fun atmosphere. You'll definately enjoy this.

4. Watch the sunrise by staying up all night and partying and then seeing the drunks and broke gamblers barely make it back to their hotel rooms in the early morning. It is the quietiest time in Vegas, and a little relaxing. You can really see how Vegas can ruin you for those that you see are completely distraught over losing - but its a good way to keep your sanity while you there.

5. Go swimming and treat yourself to a massage. This will be fun. When you get out of the pool, you can feel the heat radiating on your back and your feet will feel warmer than getting out of the pool anywhere else. It feels good, and then getting a massage later will be the perfect way to settle into a fun night. Something about swimming in the heat as the sun is going down in the Vegas desert is relaxing and calming.

6. You can shop at the FORUM in Caesar's Palace or the Passage at the Hollywood Planet Casino. They have the widest selection and the nicest shops.

7. Just enjoy yourself and have fun, dont plan out every little thing.

Lucky you, have fun - wish I was going too. Hope this helps

What happens in Vegas....stays in Vegas. Don't ask; Don't Tell.
Thanks for the question Woody.

1. If you get hard, stay away from the lard.
2. If you see a scam, play the lamb.
3. If you eat ham, make sure its Spam.
Go in all the casinos on the strip...they all have a different theme so it's kinda cool. Gambling of course. Go see a show. Go to a strip club (I recommend Sapphire...it's right off the strip and they'll have a limo come pick you up.) Go to a buffet...I hear Bellagio has an awesome one. Go see the fountains @ Bellagio. There are tons of things to do....have fun.
make sure you go to the strip club! go to "Sapphires".... do not...i repeat DO NOT go to "Spearment Rhino" its overrated big time and its very small....trust me just go to Shapphires, the place is huge and you wont see the same girl twice!
Definitley plan your trip before you go. Not every single minute, because you'll want to do some things spontaneously, but otherwise you'll wander around, overwhelmed, saying "Now what should we do?" See a major show, like a Cirque show or Blue Man Group. Check out discounted tickets at the stand inside the Coke Bottle building, right next to the MGM. Splurge and get a massage at a spa. Take a Red Rock Canyon Jeep tour. Gamble obviously. Check out "The Guy's Little Black Book to Vegas." I forget who wrote it but even as a girl it gave me some good tips.
You MUST go to the Hard Rock Pool on SUNDAY during the day.........and get your a@@ there EARLY
