Las Vegas Things to Do

To fully experience the magnificence of the Grand Canyon, one of the seven natural wonders of the world, you have to take flight! Enjoy breathtaking vistas and panoramic views as you overlook the Grand Canyon National Park from an executive-style airplane. The airplanes are fixed-wing aircrafts with climate-controlled cabins and panoramic view windows that give you the ultimate Grand Canyon experience.

Here’s the Pink Jeep Torroweep Tour. From Las Vegas, you’ll get in these big 4×4 truck/shuttle bus hybrids and head to one of the most remote spots in the entire country, though I’m sure if you’re stuck in small town Alaska during the winter, you’d probably beg to differ. Anyway, you drive from Las Vegas to the Grand Canyon in these big trucks, which is pretty neat drive (and if you disagree, they’re equipped with DVD players). Lunch is included, and the view of the canyon and the Colorado River is amazing.

I have this friend. He’s kind of a naysayer, and when it comes to Las Vegas, he refuses to have anything to do with it short of a layover at the airport. Not surprisingly, he doesn’t like gambling and has absolutely no interest in casinos, and since he’s never been beyond the terminals at McCarran International Airport, he’s unfairly written off the whole city and Las Vegas Tourism in general. I thought this was ridiculous.
