5 days in Las Vegas Itinerary

Nicknamed the "Entertainment Capital of the World," Las Vegas sits in the middle of a desert in the southern section of Nevada.

You'll explore the less-touristy side of things at Spring Mountains Visitor Center and Titanic. Escape the urban bustle at Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area and Mount Charleston. Explore Las Vegas' surroundings by going to Veteran's Memorial Park (in Boulder City) and Helicopter Tours (in Henderson). The adventure continues: take a stroll through The LINQ Promenade, have fun at Gun Garage, identify plant and animal life at Lake Mead National Recreation Area, and see the interesting displays at Zak Bagans' The Haunted Museum.
