Experience Las Vegas, USA

Las Vegas is one of those places that needs to be seen to be understood. Rising out of the Nevada desert, the city is a dazzling mix of bright lights, grand hotels, outstanding restaurants and entertainment on a scale few destinations can match.

The famous Las Vegas Strip is the heart of the action. Here, landmark resorts, casinos, theatres, bars and nightclubs sit side by side, each with its own style and personality. Even for visitors who have no interest in gambling, there is always something to enjoy from a dinner by the fountains to a concert, a Cirque du Soleil-style show or simply an evening walk beneath the neon lights.

The Bellagio Fountains are a classic Las Vegas experience, especially after dark, while the nearby hotels offer everything from luxury spas and rooftop pools to designer shopping and fine dining. For a change of pace, head to Downtown Las Vegas and Fremont Street, where vintage signs, live music and a more relaxed atmosphere reveal a different side of the city.

Las Vegas also makes a convenient starting point for exploring the surrounding desert landscapes. Hoover Dam and Lake Mead are easy to visit on a private day trip, while Red Rock Canyon and Valley of Fire offer striking scenery close to town. With more time, Las Vegas can be combined with the Grand Canyon, Zion National Park, Bryce Canyon or the wider American Southwest.

Whether you come for two lively nights or begin a longer road trip here, Las Vegas brings together comfort, entertainment and unforgettable desert surroundings in one very distinctive city.
