Visit the city that was created entirely to entertain, where dice roll until dawn and Elvis helps happy couples tie the knot.

Dance the night away at world-class clubs like 1OAK at the Mirage, Hyde at the Bellagio or Hakkasan at MGM Grand.

No Las Vegas holiday would be complete without a trip to some of the city’s legendary casinos, however, there is so much more to do if you can step away from the Black-Jack table. Step into the great outdoors and experience the Hoover Dam, Death Valley or take a helicopter tour to the Grand Canyon.
