1. Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum
|
|
| Our first full day in Vegas, Sunday, we went down to the Ventian after breakfast and went for a look around, it was very good, some really good likenesses |
|
|
2. Phantom - The Las Vegas Spectacular
|
|
| We had booked tickets to see this on the Sunday evening, the theatre was quite empty so we got moved nearer the front into better seats than we had paid for! Superb show, the effects were outrstanding. This version is slightly shorter than others, although it doesn't make the play any less! |

3. Siegfried & Roy's Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat
|
|
| Monday. We had to pick the Cirque De Soleil Tickets up so we went next door to the Mirage and had a look round The Secret garden. Not a lot here really but it isn't Sea World it is a conservation and research facility. Lovely White Tigers there though! |

5. Love - Cirque du Soleil
|
|
| Monday Evening. Amazing - only word that sums this show up. I am a Beatle's fan so I found it awe-inspiring but it would be to anyone fan or not!!!! Such a talented set of acrobats and the accompanying music is amazing! I like the way the stage and seating is set out for this - brilliant show! |

6. Grand Canyon West Ranch
|
Ave price:
$149
|
|
Tuesday. Took a Helicopter trip out to the Grand Canyon and a visit to a ranch out there, with HeliUSA. Brilliant flight and experience at the ranch, me and my girlfriend we went out horse-riding with one of the ranch hands, with Spirit mountain in the back drop, stunning scenery it really was! The Canyon and Lake Mead take your breath away just due to the sheer size of them! You can't come to Vegas and not take a trip to the Grand Canyon. It takes 40 minutes approx flight to get there if you set off from McCarran Int'l |

7. Lance Burton Master Magician
|
|
| Tuesday Evening. I'd heard a lot about Lance Burton and so was pleasantly surprised when we had been tolds we had front row tickets to see him at the Monte Carlo Hotel. The show is amazing, it literally leaves you thinking "Oh My God, how on earth did he do that", "How did he get there that quick" etc. By far the best magician I have seen thus far, and he is very interactive and pleasant with the audience. See this if you can it is really great! Plus if you have a small child with you he will make the kid disappear!!! |

8. Belz Factory Outlet Mall
|
|
| Wednesday. If you can't afford the shops in the big hotels (i.e. Caesars Forum Shops, Grand Canal @ Venentian) then this is the place! We loved it and spent a fortune but got a whole load of stuff for our money. Especially in the Nike outlet store - you can't buy stuff this cheap back home. This place will be the reason why you bring an extra suitcase with you!!!! |
