Guide to Las Vegas

Guide to Las Vegas
Las Vegas has become a tourist mecca over the past few decades. The city is filled with nightlife entertainment and non-stop fun. You can also find some of the country's best golf courses in or around the city, including championship and executive. If you stay at the right hotels, you can enjoy them at a discount.

Harrah's Stay and Play Golf Packages

Harrah's Entertainment owns several of the Strips best hotels and casinos including the Paris Las Vegas, Ceasar's Palace, Bally's, the Flamingo and the Rio. With special discounts from the Harrah's website, you can find rooms from $69 per night, or even as low as $29 if you book certain rooms on certain dates. You will also find stay-and-play packages that can give you a discount on greens fees when you play at Cascata, the nation's top ranked golf course (by Zagat surveys). Harrah's also has packages for the Rio Secco Golf Course and the Las Vegas National Golf Club.

Entertainment

Entertainment in Las Vegas is among the best in the country, with famous nightly acts in most of the casinos. You can enjoy comedy, music, stage shows and more. A few shows not to miss include Blue Man Group, Cirque Du Soleil and the famous Bellagio water fountains show. Cirque Du Soleil has different-themed shows at six different casinos. Blue Man Group performs at the Venetian. The water fountain show occurs every few minutes outside of the Bellagio Hotel and Casino. The best time to view it is at dusk.

Nightlife

If you want to enjoy some really hot nightlife, then Las Vegas is the place to be. There are hundreds of nightclubs on the strip, but most of the best--large clubs with incredible amenities and large dance rooms--are located inside the hotels. For singles, Tryst, located in the Wynn luxury hotel on Las Vegas Boulevard, is one of the hottest spots. TAO is another hot singles spot inside the Venetian.
