given the fact that i didnt like Newyork or LA, i thought that las vegas wont impress me but i was wrong. i actually LOVED vegas !! I really did and i am sure, i wouldve loved it more if i was not single !!
vegas is too small that you can actually see the hotels from the airport but everything about it is exciting .. the lights, the shows, the dinning options, the hotels and people ! you can totally see people from all over the world !!
Las vegas airport:
very convenient. its about 10min away from the city. you could actually see the hotels from the airport. and if you ever decided that you have not gambled enough, there are alot of slot machines in the airport too lol
Hotels !!
we stayed at la paris hotel. the whole hotel had a french theme even the rooms. you know, hotels are a big part of vegas culture ! i mean, all you do there is hotels/casionos hopping and attending shows .. so definitely, im coming back again and ill be staying at different hotel !! so many cool hotels that i wanted to check out including Aria, Wynn, Bellagio and venetian .
each hotel has its own things whether themed casionos, dinning places, gardens and stuff and their own shows.. for example, the Venetian had venice theme with the gondolas and stuff, Aria was more like high tech place, i even heard that the rooms there work with audio commands and like i mentioned earlier, la paris was french. Bellagio was famous for its huge musical fountain, New york new york had statue of liberty and empire state building there. there is something special about every hotel :D
there is just too much to see, too much to eat and too much to try in vegas . i had so much fun despite the fact that i never gambled or attended any bars/clubs
the shows
we saw cirque du soliel : le reve at the wynn. it was beautiful and impressive. it was water themed with lots and lots of acrobats. i actually really liked it ! it was better than the one in orlando ( La Nouba ) . what i really wanted to see was Zarkana.. yallah perhaps next time inshallah.

we have also seen a comedy stand up show at flamingo which was okay !
we spent 4 days there and couldve seen 4 different shows but my friend did a lousy job at organizing it so .. maybe next time ..
ohh we also got to play the CSI game which was interesting ... not as challenging as i hoped but it was fun .. totally a different kind of games. i mean, you asked to assess a crime scene, go to the lab and actually examine the evidences you've collected and there is also a morgue part too !!!
Dinning :
omg ! i cant start talking about dinning in vegas .. there are ZILLIONS of restaurants .. restaurants owned by famous chefs !! if i have spent every hour of these 4 days dinning at different places, i wouldnt be able to finish em all !! there was soooo much to eat and so much to try but whats striking is, ITS EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE !!!
see, the hotels are pretty cheap but the shows and restaurants are REALLY EXPENSIVE !!
I guess thats why people gamble in vegas, they wanna earn their food's money :P
Grand Canyon
its a day trip from vegas which i was really looking forward to but my party thought it would be too cold and canceled it which made me sad ! i was really looking forward to see the grand canyon ! oh well, now i have more reasons to come to Vegas again. oh yeah, one more thing, despite the fact that las vegas is in the desert, it can get really cold in winter !
Review Time !!
las vegas airport:
like i said, VERY CONVENIENT!! you can actually fly to vegas to watch a show and leave on the same day .. the airport is close, the airfare is cheap, the hotels are cheap so why not !!!
las vegas airport is famous for the fact that you can still gamble to the very last minute lol
Las vegas:
loved it ! very colorful, very lively .. so much to see, to eat , to try and basically to do. its a fun city.. my advise though, dont come here if you are single .. i dont know if its just me or not, but there is naughty-ness in the air and it can be pretty lonely if you got no partner in crime.. but thats just my personal opinion !!!
but watch it. it is a little bit pricey !! food and shows can be really expensive.
people:
ive never met any locals lol !! its a very tourists-based city
prices:
- TAX IS LOW ! i think its 6% only so definitely, shopping can be fun here especially from electronics but other than that, the restaurants and shows are really expensive.
hotels are cheap too but whats the use of coming to vegas and not watching a show or two or try those famous dinning places?
Musts:
- hard to tell. i guess EVERYTHING !! visit every hotel , go to every show if you could and eat everywhere lol
So Vegas .. we shall meet again :P
grand canyon
