Some Free things to do and see on your Las Vegas Holiday

Some Free things to do and see on your Las Vegas Holiday

If you have a cheap holiday to Las Vegas in mind and want to keep your money saved for shopping and the Casinos, take a look at some of the free things there are to do and see in Vegas.

 A guaranteed roaring good time

Why not pay a visit to the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino where you will be able to see the Lion Habitat?  This daily attraction which is open from 11am to 10 pm will allow you to see these fantastic creatures as they play, relax and eat in their jungle habitat within a 5,000 square foot glass habitat.

 Have a blast….a Volcanic Blast

If you can still stand the sight of Volcanoes, then you should stop by at the Mirage Hotel and Casino between 7pm and 12pm. Every night, a man made Volcano erupts every 15 minutes, wowing the crowds with its spectacular flames and molten lave. 

 Rock and Roll the night away

Open 24 hours a day and seven days a week, you can take a look around the Rock and Roll Memorabilia exhibition at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino. This great collection has pieces from various rock and roll legends including the Beatles, Aerosmith, the Ramones and Guns N Roses.  

 Watch new TV shows before they air

This one is a great way to spend an afternoon if you are on holiday with children. At the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino sites the CBS Television City. Allow your children and yourselves to become TV executives and see brand new television shows that are set to be aired on Nickelodeon, MTV, VH1 and many others. Using touch screen devices you will be able to rate the shows and help the networks find out what is popular. This attraction is free, but tickets are limited.

 Experience a thunderstorm as you shop

If you happen to be shopping at the Miracle Mile Shopping Mall next to the Planet Hollywood Hotel and Casino then you may come across this attraction by accident. Every hour a computer generated thunderstorm takes over the Mall and treats the visitors to a thunder and lightning storm.

Vegas For First Timers

las-vegas_3964826211238431818If you’re visiting Las Vegas for the first time, you’ll want to know where the best places are for fluttering your cash. The choice of hotels and casinos here are endless and can be quite off-putting to ‘Vegas virgins’. To make things easier, we’ve come up with our very own Vegas travel guide to make your trip one to remember.

First of all you need to consider your budget.  Most casinos in Vegas form part of exclusive hotel and leisure resorts and some fantastic deals can be done if you know where to look. If you’d rather spend your money on the tables than on your hotel accommodation, try the Golden Palms Hotel Casino which is located just moments from the main Strip, offering comfortable room facilities and even an outdoor pool and Jacuzzi – perfect for cooling off from that stifling desert air! Alternatively, head a little further out to the Sonoran Suites Las Vegas which offers affordable accommodation and close proximity to Vegas’ range of terrific golf courses.

If you’re trying to make every penny count but you still want to be in the hub of all the action, the Sahara Las Vegas Hotel and Casino, positioned conveniently on the Strip, is a good option if you’re just after something fairly cheap and cheerful. Facilities include themed restaurants, a spa and salon, an 80,000 sq ft casino with a focus on blackjack tables, a comedy club and even a roller-coaster ride encircling the venue.

If money isn’t an option, however, and you want to experience the ultimate in Las Vegas pomp and luxury, the famous Bellagio hotel and casino is the venue for you. Aimed more towards high-rolling gamblers, the décor here is opulent and the atmosphere and clientele of the highest prestige, so unless you’re a particularly good bluffer, this is not really the place for amateurs. Guests can master their poker face in one of the Bellagio’s three poker rooms or bet to their heart’s content in the private lounge and swish sports-booking area. Either way, you will be sure to receive some of the best treatment on the Strip.

Most good casinos also provide drinks and food free of charge as you gamble, so make sure you take advantage of this little perk. However, if you would prefer a sit-down meal somewhere, you’ll be spoilt for choice. Most hotel casinos provide a range of themed and buffet restaurants, some with ‘all-you-can-eat’ deals at a fixed price which offer excellent value for money. Another great place to go for the whole family is  The Cheesecake Factory, offering a vast all-American menu, as well as specializing in their mouth-watering signature cheesecake dessert.
