Best Of Las Vegas
The Strip
With its erupting volcanoes, pirate battles, Eiffel Tower and Egyptian pyramid, the legendary Strip will blow your mind as well as your wallet.
Bellagio
Las Vegas' most opulent hotel must be seen to be believed, and its sumptuous buffet is the best in town.
Fremont Street
Fremont Street is the lesser-known of the Vegas strips, but it boasts a street-long laser light-and-music show - less hokey than it sounds - plus atmospheric hotel-casinos like
Binion's Horseshoe.
Luxor
Don't go to Egypt for Tutankhamen's tomb or the pyramids; there are excellent replicas at the
Luxor,
a giant black pyramid-shaped hotel with an Egyptian theme. It's cheesy but unmissable.
Honeymoon in Las Vegas
Prove to your significant other that you're serious; plan a surprise wedding at the Graceland Wedding Chapel with your celebrity best man, Elvis himself.
Liberace Museum
A kitsch lover's dream, the Liberace Museum is filled with gaudy artifacts from the great man's career, including his rhinestone-covered capes, gold pianos and over-the-top cars.
Boxing
Catch a prizefight - and perhaps an ear - at the
MGM Grand.
Treasure Island Buccaneer Bay Show
Several times a day, crowds gather 'round the galleys at
Treasure Island
to watch their peglegged, eyepatched crews do battle in the lake outside the hotel. Ahoy, matey!
