There's a lot to do in Vegas, here we've put together the main points and why you should know them
Casinos
The city is a favorite destination for players all over the world! Between poker tables, experienced dealers, roulettes and slot machines. It's better to have fun and feel the adrenaline of betting and, who knows, winning a few dollars. Casinos are the stars of Sin City; it couldn't be different. Thanks to the legalization of gambling in 1931, together with the construction of the Hoover Dam, the number of inhabitants in and around Las Vegas rose from 5,000 to 2 million. For those interested in getting started with the betting experience while preparing for the trip, we've found a list made by the experts at OLBG.com of the best online betting in Vegas.
The newest casinos, associated with big hotels – such as Bellagio, Caesars Palace, Wynn, Planet Hollywood and Cosmopolitan – are mainly concentrated in the Strip area. Pioneer and more traditional houses are in Downtown, especially on Fremont Street, where you will find: Golden Nugget, Four Queens, Golden Gate and El Cortez. To get into the gambling mood is to feel part of the city.
Strip Street
The starting point for all visitors is the Strip, the stretch of Las Vegas Boulevard where the most famous casinos in the world are located. Amidst millions of colored lights, the great themed hotels concentrate several attractions. Trendy restaurants, concert halls, gigantic shopping malls and many casinos keep tourists trapped inside the complexes for many hours.
Las Vegas was also one of the most searched destinations in the US 2021.
Cirque du Soleil
Cirque Du Soleil's show is the consumer dream of most tourists traveling to Las Vegas. It is difficult to find anyone who chooses to enjoy the shows that the city offers and does not include at least one performance by the Canadian circus company. It's the opportunity to choose between seven different shows, at much more affordable prices than in Brazil. An arduous task is choosing which of the shows to include in the trip's itinerary.
Bellagio Fountains
One of the iconic images of Las Vegas, the Bellagio Fountains is one of the most beautiful spectacles in the city. It may sound like a tired program and even a little silly, but believe me, just the music starts and the first jet of water is fired for all the tourists around the lake to be mesmerized. There is no way to remain impervious to the movement of water synchronized with the lights, always to the sound of well-known hits, from Frank Sinatra to the US National Anthem.
You will sing, smile and be thrilled. Pull out the camera and record all the sinuous movements of the water jets. With each melody, a new choreography is presented; so stop as many times as you pass by. A new show awaits you in the next performance.
Grand Canyon
In the state of Arizona, neighboring Nevada, one of the seven natural wonders of the world awaits eager tourists for the breathtaking scenery. The Grand Canyon was designed over two billion years with the help of the waters of the Colorado River. The colorful rock formations, with impressive designs, are 446km long and reach 30km wide and 1800m deep. It's so big it's scary. Knowing that it is possible to get to know it in depth, on routes by helicopter, boat, rafting, bus or car, makes the visit even more awaited.
One of the most popular destinations for tourists who are in Las Vegas, the Grand Canyon is a must see for those who enjoy nature walks. There are so many options to visit that certainly one of them will fit in your time and in your pocket. The first step in defining the tour that best fits your itinerary is to choose one of the borders, or rims, that you would like to visit. South Rim, West Rim and North Rim are very different and make each tour unique; so, if time is free, visit at least the first two options.
