    Rent a convertible and get out of the city for a day. Bring water, snacks, sun-block, and shades and just drive. See the mountains, fiery rocks, Hoover Dam, desert scenes....anything! It's gorgeous.

    Day Trips/Tours: Get outta Vegas. Seriously,...
  • Tip Rating:
  • Before you've blown your entire wad at the slot machines, or if you've just seen enough drunken fannypack tourists, rent a car and check out the area beyond SIn City- there are so dang many cool things to see and do within a couple-few hours of here it's really an underrated benefit of living and visiting Southern NV. Within a 4 hr. radius there are about 6 national parks, great camping and fishing, lots of gorgeous geography, several world class rock climbing spots, hot springs, hiking, Indian ruins, chinchilla farms, etc., etc. If you're here for more than a couple days you should really think about taking a side trip and see what's beyond the neon and cheap cig. smoke.

  • Lake Meed - I met a man and asked him why he liked it.
    His answer was - I can enjoy boating, swimming, and meet nice girls. ^0^

  • Tip Rating:
  • Paradaise in Desert - The Lake Las Vegas
    Huge manmade lake Las Vegas is Paradaise. There is two golf courses and hotels and clubs, shopping malls. The great thing was it's not for tourists but for local's. Thousands of locals live in there.
    In the lake people can enjoy the boating which has got electronic moter. So around the lake is so quiet.

    Day Trips/Tours: Las Vegas General Tips Tip (Untitled)
  • Tip Rating:
  • If you are in California, the coolest way to go to Vegas is to drive through the Mojave Desert. There is not much too see except for all the Joshua trees, Peggy Sue's 50's diner and the Bun Boy restauant, which is in Baker, California-home of the world's tallest thermometer. You will also pass through Primm, which has casinos and shopping also.

  • Tip Rating:
  • I would take them to Lake Meade, and Hoover Dam, two of the easiest sites to see. Red Rock Canyon and Mt. Charleston are also nice. Mt. Charleston has a lodge and resturant and is beautiful.

    The view of area from up in the mountains at night is gorgeous. I live up on Sunrise Mt. just so that I may enjoy the view of all the lights at night.

    Day Trips/Tours: When you can't take all of the...
  • Tip Rating:
  • When you can't take all of the people and concrete-rent a car and drive directly out of town early in the day. You can go out to Red Rock Canyon and check out the sights. Valley the Fires is not too far north and some really greatphoto opts. We won't get there this time but I went seven years ago.

    Discovering the $.05 machines and winning!

    Day Trips/Tours: Enjoy the lights, glitter and surrounding area
  • Tip Rating:
  • Take in the scenery, gamble, visit the hotels. But most importantly, get a map of the area and bring a good pair of walking shoes!

    Red Rock Canyon (about 30 minutes west of the city), Hoover Dam and Lake Mead (about 30 to 40 minutes southeast of the city) as well as Las Vegas at night; totally awesome sites.

  • Go out of the city and visit the National Parks.

    Fondest memory is all I have seen and done in Las Vegas.

    Miss everything when not there.
