Las Vegas Motocross is a Real Good Time

May 31st, 2008 by Las Vegas USA Blog

If you are interested in motocross . . . Las Vegas is the perfect place for a fun vacation. There are even Las Vegas tours that will take you out on dirt bikes, so you don´t have to worry about how to transport your bike there.

The trails around Las Vegas are pretty exciting. There are plenty of valleys to explore where you´ll find old ghost towns and abandoned mines. At one point, the area was crawling with miners and prospectors and there is still quite a bit of evidence of this around. With a dirt bike, you´ll be able to see all this nice and close, unlike a helicopter or SUV tour.

There´s definitely something to be said for being able to take a motocross trip out of Las Vegas. The area is absolutely stunning, with rock formations and plants that you won´t be able to see elsewhere. The only prerequisite is experience with a dirt bike. So this isn´t a tour for amateurs.

For anyone who enjoys the great outdoors and being on a motorbike, then this is a great way to enjoy your Las Vegas vacation.

5 Las Vegas Shopping Tips for Getting a Great Deal

May 31st, 2008 by Las Vegas USA Blog

It´s pretty hard to resist Las Vegas shopping centers. They have factory outlet stores and amazing boutiques in the most unique environments. It´s a completely different experience than you´d have anywhere else! After all, in what other shopping mall could you enjoy buying unique items, then dine at a restaurant run by Wolfgang Puck and finally take a gondola ride down a canal?

Las Vegas shopping

To help you with NOT spending all your hard earned (or easily won) cash, here are five Las Vegas shopping tips:

  1. Make a budget. It´s very helpful to decide how much money you´ll allow yourself to spend ahead of time.
  2. Cash only. Using credit cards makes it very easy to overspend, so take the cash that you intend to spend and you´ll easily see when it´s running out.
  3. Check online. Look for coupon codes or printable coupons before you leave for any Las Vegas shopping center.
  4. Get a pass. Often a Las Vegas shopping pass will not only give you free shuttle rides, you´ll also get discounts on your purchases and free stuff.
  5. Look twice, buy once. Impulse buying is usually responsible for overspending, so make sure you look at everything and then go back to buy the items that you really need.

Las Vegas shopping is exhilarating and fun, but you should be careful not to spend all your money in one place!

Las Vegas Weddings: Elvis Croons to Newlyweds

May 30th, 2008 by Las Vegas USA Blog

Las Vegas: The Best Place to Skydive

May 28th, 2008 by Las Vegas USA Blog

Las Vegas has some hot weather to offer. It rarely rains in this city and the weather is pretty nice all year round with clear skies and lots of sunshine. That makes Las Vegas the ideal place to head up into the air for a skydiving adventure.

Las Vegas skydiving

Las Vegas is the ideal place to go skydiving, particularly if it´s your first time up. There are special tandem skydive packages available. This allows you to jump with a professional who knows exactly what he or she is doing and you´ll be in good hands. Eliminating the insecurity is the best way to get over your fear of jumping out of a plane and having someone with several years of experience strapped to you is the ideal way to do just that.

You´ll get a great view of the entire city and the brown desert. It´s an amazing sight from high up and while you could enjoy this view from a plane or helicopter, there´s something about actually falling right into that scenery that makes it a really special experience.

If you´re looking for something a little different to do in Las Vegas, then skydiving could definitely spice things up. It´s certainly worth a try!

Las Vegas Restaurants On a Budget

May 28th, 2008 by Las Vegas USA Blog

It´s not necessary to pay a huge sum of money just to eat in Las Vegas restaurants. While there are plenty of cheap places to eat, you´ll find that you are also able to actually stick to a budget while eating in the more expensive, high class restaurants as well. It all depends on your strategy.

Eat early. Most dinners are more expensive than lunches, so you´ll find that if you eat before the lunch hour ends (usually around 4 pm), you will pay far less for great food. Fill up early and have a snack later on to keep you going.

Share. Most entrees are huge these days. Rather than ask for a doggie bag, why not just split a plate and a basket of bread with a partner? This way you pay half the price and still fill up.

Go small. Order an appetizer if you aren´t that hungry. This can be a great way to lower the cost in Las Vegas restaurants. Appetizers are quite a bit cheaper than the main event, but are often quite filling on their own. Not to mention if you are on a diet, an appetizer offers smaller portions.

Invest in a MealTicket. This will let you hit some of the top Las Vegas restaurants and eat well without spending a small fortune. Plus, it´s ideal for budgets since you buy ahead of time and just flash the card to get your meals.

Avoid extras. If you have a hankering for dessert, have it afterwards, somewhere else. Often a coffee shop will offer tasty treats for far less than a fancy restaurant. Also, avoiding drinks will let you save quite a bit of cash.

You don´t have to be rich to enjoy some great food in top Las Vegas restaurants. Just a little common sense and some money saving tactics go a long way.

Las Vegas Neon Makes the City Come Alive

May 27th, 2008 by Las Vegas USA Blog

The bright lights of Las Vegas are something that really make this city stand out. Whenever a movie is set in Las Vegas, you can pretty much guarantee several shots of the neon signs of casinos and hotels. The neon lights of Las Vegas have long been a major attraction and while by day the city looks pretty, by night, it truly comes alive!

Las Vegas lights

Since many famous casinos and hotels are being torn down these days to make way for more modern marvels, you might wonder what has happened to the older signs. Don´t worry, these didn´t go the way of the buildings . . . they´ve been salvaged. Some were sold off to the highest bidder, but the majority of Las Vegas´ retired neon signs are actually in a “graveyard” where tourists can walk through a forest full of these hallmark symbols of an era gone by.

These neon signs are no longer lit, but that doesn´t mean they aren´t impressive. You´ll enjoy checking out some of the most famous neon signs in Las Vegas, like the ones from the Sahara and the Aladdin.

The best way to enjoy Las Vegas lights is to see the current signs in action. While walking down the Strip might be a fun way to check out those signs while getting some exercise, there´s nothing like flying overhead and looking down on the maze of lights that makes up the city.

Perfect Las Vegas Attraction for Active Tourists

May 25th, 2008 by Las Vegas USA Blog

Las Vegas attractions tend to require quite a bit of movement whether you like it or not. Just hiking up and down the Strip is a lot of exercise for many and just inside the massive casinos, you will find yourself being pretty active. However, that´s nothing compared to our next Las Vegas attraction . . . Lake Mead.

Las Vegas attraction, Lake Mead

At Lake Mead, you won´t just be admiring the view, though there is plenty of that to go around. The Hoover Dam is right there for you to check out, but the cool waters of the lake are the focal point of this Las Vegas attraction! While swimming is just fine, you can also rent a kayak and go exploring.

This lake was created when the Hoover Dam was built, so it´s a man-made lake that offers a lot of area to cover. Depending on the amount of water being let through the dam, the lake´s water level fluctuates quite a bit and there are times when you can even see one of the towns that was flooded out in this valley. There were several small towns that were abandoned for the purposes of creating the dam, but most are hidden in the depths of the lake.

If you´re looking for an active Las Vegas attraction, Lake Mead is it. Take a half day kayaking trip and really get a workout.

Las Vegas: Getting There and Back

May 24th, 2008 by Las Vegas USA Blog

Most people prefer to fly into Las Vegas. While you can certainly drive and many people do, it´s quite a ways from anywhere else and flying lets you just relax. For a slightly cheaper option, there is always the bus, but flying is definitely more pleasant. And with a shuttle service from the airport to your hotel, you really can´t go wrong.

It´s a good idea, as with all things to do with your vacation, to book ahead. Most people know to do this with flights, but there are a number of very good reasons to do this. Apart from the time savings and knowing just what is going to happen, you also end up saving money by booking ahead. Many venues and travel operations offer a discount for setting up travel plans ahead of time and if you are planning to head for Las Vegas, it´s something you will definitely want to do, as this is a popular destination spot.

Remember to book your shuttle to the hotel, as well. This is a perk in Las Vegas. The Strip may look short on the silver screen, but the reality is that it´s quite long and you don´t want to be paying a cab to sit at all the red lights or haul those bags yourself. The best thing is to get the shuttle, which is quite affordable and it will take you right to your hotel doorstep. And, when you´re ready to head back home, the same airport shuttle will pick you up and take you to the airport. All you need to do is call ahead a day or two.

A few different Las Vegas tours now offer visitors the opportunity to walk right out into the middle of the Grand Canyon by taking a stroll on the relatively new Skywalk.

Las Vegas Attractions: The Techatticup Mine

May 22nd, 2008 by Las Vegas USA Blog

Of all the Las Vegas attractions available to check out, the Techatticup Mine is perhaps one of the most interesting. The Salvage vein, a rich vein of gold that ran up the hills above the Colorado River, was discovered in Eldorado Canyon in 1961. There, the Techatticup Mine was built.

This area is a major Las Vegas attraction because of the interesting rock formations and scenery that surrounds the canyon. This is where early gold rush prospectors came to sift their fortune from the river. However, when they discovered that there was so much gold to be had in the hills, the Techatticup Mine was born.

Assorted disputes appeared over this famous Las Vegas attraction. People fought over who owned the mine, whether or not the working conditions were fair and who should be getting a proportion of the gold being mined. These were bloody times and the mine quickly had a lot of blood hanging around it as killings became a daily occurrence.

This mine wasn´t just a gold mine, though. It went on to become one of the most successful mines in the region, turning out not only gold, but silver, copper and lead, too! It´s still there for tourists to check out, a Las Vegas attraction full of history and phantoms.

Making the Past Come Alive

May 19th, 2008 by Las Vegas USA Blog

The shady past of Sin City is a big Las Vegas attraction. People have seen it played out in dozens of movies, read about it and enjoyed the stories as they have been told through the generations. But you still don´t know the half of it! The city is one that has not only a shady past, but a violent and mob related one, as well.

Las Vegas attractions, the mob

The Mafia was crucial in making Las Vegas what it is today. Their methods may have been a little unorthodox, but they got the job done. Care to speculate on how many bodies have been dumped in the foundations of the older casinos along the Strip? Well, no one knows for sure, but at least one person has ended up in the concrete drink!

Most Las Vegas attractions are pretty tame. The history of Las Vegas, though, is something else. Filled with shootouts and gunfights, murders and traitors, it´s a story that you will find fascinating and one that is absolutely true. These men really did live and they changed the course of history, if not for everyone, then at least for this Nevada city.

The mob is still hinted at in these parts and if you are interested in all things mafia, you´ll definitely want to take a walk through Las Vegas!

There´s no reason your Las Vegas visit should be limited to hotels and casinos when there are literally dozens of amazing Las Vegas nightclubs available to visit. Many people never leave the comfort of their own hotel and the nearby area, but it is definitely worth hailing a taxi and heading elsewhere!

If you do decide to go to some Las Vegas nightclubs, then you will want to purchase a VIP pass that will give you plenty of benefits. Here are just a few of the perks of grabbing this pass:

  • VIP entrance to all the Las Vegas nightclubs on the list, you´ll be able to walk straight in without having to wait in line.
  • Free drinks. Not all Las Vegas nightclubs offer this, but some will let you get free drinks just by showing your VIP pass.
  • 2 for 1 deals. This is also something not offered by all Las Vegas nightclubs, but most will give you a deal for flashing your card and two for one is better than nothing!
  • No cover charge is necessary when you´ve purchased the VIP pass, so you can just head on into any club on the list!

There are plenty of perks to holding a Las Vegas nightclub VIP pass, so look into booking one before you leave for the city. You won´t regret it!

Las Vegas Shopping for Fun and Entertainment

May 17th, 2008 by Las Vegas USA Blog

There´s nothing like the Fashion Outlets to enjoy a little Las Vegas shopping. This huge mall is just the thing for any shopaholic, as well as anyone who just enjoys getting a good deal. You won´t find any souvenirs at these shops, the Fashion Outlets shops are full of real merchandise, including stores like The Gap, Nautica, Perry Ellis and Banana Republic. That means you have the best chance of finding something you like.

Las Vegas shopping

Fashion Outlets features over 100 outlet stores where you can find name brand clothing at rock bottom prices. It´s really worth waiting to enhance your wardrobe until you can come here. In general, outlets offer lower prices for several reasons. First, they are giving you factory reduced prices. Also, often you can find $100 jeans for just $5 because they have some slight error on them. Something as simple as a rivet in the wrong place can kill the normal price of any piece of clothing and in most cases, the error is something you can´t even see or notice.

Factory outlets are a good place to get your Las Vegas shopping done. You´ll be able to stock up on some really great items without having to ever pay full price on a single piece of clothing. And by booking a shuttle to take you there ahead of time, you can take a Las Vegas shopping trip without any problems and no taxi necessary.
