8 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.

Take a break from the city and head to Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area and Valley of Fire State Park. Shop till you drop at The Strip and The Grand Canal Shoppes at The Venetian Resort. Change things up with these side-trips from Las Vegas: Boulder City (Boulder City/Hoover Dam Museum, Winged Figures of the Republic Statues, &more), Willow Beach (in Fort Mohave) and Clark County Heritage Museum (in Henderson). And it doesn't end there: see the interesting displays at The Mob Museum, try your luck at Casino At The Venetian, ponder the design of Fountains of Bellagio, and get engrossed in the history at Titanic.
