Our Guide to a Quintessential Vegas Weekend

Las Vegas is a dream holiday destination for so many people and if you’re one of the lucky few who gets to see the City of Sin, then you’ve got to be sure to tick off all of the most important tourist sites.

Whether your idea of Vegas is stuffing yourself silly at a big Vegas buffet, putting it all on black in one of Vegas’ famous casinos, or marveling at the lights dancing in the Bellagio fountains, we here at Vegas Publicity have got all of the tips that you need to ensure that your Vegas vacation is as, well, Vegas as it gets!

Explore The Canals of The Venetian

First on your list is something that is arguably more Venice than Vegas, which is spending some time at the stunning Venetian resort. This resort was built in the 90s with the idea of emulating a slice of Venetian life. You can travel in a Gondola through a stunning network of canals. Don’t forget to grab a selfie, as this relaxing boat ride is sure to be an experience that you’ll never forget. On your gondola ride, there are stops at various parts of the resort. Be sure to make several stops so that you can enjoy all that the resort has to offer. You can shop along a beautiful Venetian street full of little boutiques, visit a restaurant with typical Italian food, or even try your luck at the resort’s casino. 

Check Out a Casino

Speaking of casinos, there is nothing that Vegas is more famous for than its plethora of glitzy casinos. So intertwined are the ideas of Vegas and casinos that there are hundreds of slot games at VegasSlotsOnline that take direct inspiration from the city. There are slots based on the buzzing neon lights of Vegas, slots designed to look like famous Vegas casinos, and even slot games with Vegas directly in the title. So, what could be more exciting for a gaming fan than heading to one of Vegas’ actual casinos? There are plenty to choose from and all of them offer a wide range of both slot machines and table games, so you’ll be spoilt for choice. If you’re a casino beginner, then roulette is a simple game to get started with. Plus, any of the croupiers will be very happy to help you if you’re struggling with the betting table.

Zip Down the Strip

One of the best ways to get to know a completely new city is to take a tour of it. There are plenty of walking tours in Vegas that can teach you some interesting facts about the city. You could even opt for a helicopter tour, which can show you a birds-eye view of some of the most famous sites. However, our ‘tour’ of choice is a combination of the two. It’s a good deal cheaper than a helicopter tour but will give you that same birds-eye view, and that’s flying over the Las Vegas Strip on a zip wire. This is a super cool way to get to know the layout of the main road in town. You’ll be able to do a spot of people watching, at great speed, from high above the streetlights. This experience is equally great both day and night, some people might even want to do it twice so that they can experience both.

Catch the Bellagio Lights

The Bellagio is a stunning resort, famous for its opulent rooms, its glamorous casino, and of course, its stunning fountain. Whilst the resort can be prohibitively expensive to stay at, the good news is that you don’t need to be staying at the resort to enjoy viewing the beautiful fountain. It’s great to go and see at any time of day, but particularly special if you head to the Bellagio after dark. It’s at this time that the half-hourly light show is at its best, making the perfect backdrop for a romantic evening, a cheeky selfie, or even popping the question to your one true love. We’ll leave the rest of the details up to you!

Enjoy a Big Vegas Buffet

Finally, if you’ve made it through the whole list of suggestions then you’ll likely be feeling a little peckish. Thankfully, there are any number of buffets all clamoring for your attention. The Bacchanal buffet at Caesar’s Palace is particularly popular. Everything is cooked fresh that day and you’ll have a choice of more than 300 individual dishes. Arriving at lunchtime is a great way to save a little money and beat some of the crowds.
