Las Vegas is one of those places that actually is all things to all people. You want gambling 24/7, after-hours clubs and exotic shows? No problem. Looking for fine dining, upscale spas and shopping? Yup, lots of that, too.

Las Vegas also has tons of activities for families and outdoor enthusiasts. If you’re not sure where to begin your Vegas vacation, read our suggested itineraries in Las Vegas on how to spend your days and nights in this always enigmatic, always neon city. Highlights from our recommended itineraries include:

1. Day 1: The Strip. Hit the town and take in an over-the-top spectacular Vegas show. Choices are many, but a few of our current favorites include Le Rêve at Wynn Las Vegas, Beatles ode The Fab Four at the Aladdin Hotel, and the always entertaining Blue Man Group at the Venetian Resort Casino.
2. Day 2: Back to Nature. Although you may prefer to spend your Sin City days holed up in a dark casino, you’re definitely missing out on beautiful dessert scenery. Lake Mead and Hoover Dam are tops on the list. The Hoover Dam Deluxe Tour is bound to be a highlight. You’ll get to take in the beauty of Lake Mead, the largest man-made lake in the country, and explore the art-deco, New Deal project and its fascinating history. And let’s not forget about the Grand Canyon; we have a dozen different ways to tour the Grand Canyon from Las Vegas, including the hugely popular All American Helicopter Tour to the Grand Canyon.
3. Day 3: A Touch of Glitz. Las Vegas is nothing if not glitz and glamor of sinful proportions. Don’t even try to fight it, embrace the neon and over-the-topness of it all. First, you should purchase a VISITicket: Las Vegas Power Pass, which will give you the best value for all the attractions in town. If you’re with the children, make sure to get a babysitter and hit the town known for its nightlife. Our best bet goes to the Ultimate Nightclub Hopping Package, where you can get your groove on. You get access to all the hottest clubs, no queues and no velvet ropes keeping you waiting. You’ll sleep when you get home.

This is just a sample of our recommendations. Read the complete set of Suggested Itineraries in Las Vegas, or browse all of our tours, activities and things to do in Las Vegas.
