A Weekend Break in Las Vegas
For a real ‘All American’ experience, visit the world famous Las Vegas. With great offers from many airlines on direct flights, a short trip to the City of Sin is now as feasible as weekend in Paris or Berlin.
Las Vegas is dominated by Hotels, so you’re spoiled for choice of places to stay. From the famous names from the films, to the smaller, yet no less glitzy establishments all along Las Vegas Boulevard, they love their hotels in this part of America. Stay close to the main strip and you can’t go wrong.
The other thing they love in this part of America is to eat. No trip to Vegas is complete without a steak on the strip. Gourmet restaurants abound in the top end Hotels, but follow your nose and check out the deals, and you can find fantastic fare at unbelievably low prices. Plus all the talk about the size of the portions is true!
Once sufficiently well fed, it’s time to gamble. Blackjack, roulette, slot machines; you can feel like you’re in the movies, risking it all on Red, or going all in at the poker table. Make sure though, that you make time to catch one of the light shows of the Fremont Street Experience.
If you get tired of the casino floor, Las Vegas provides ample opportunity for retail therapy. The cavernous Fashion Show Mall and the open air Town Square are meccas for shoppers, with all major brands within these glamorous settings.
Vegas doesn’t just carry on partying right through the night, it gets more outrageous the later it gets.
Catch a flying trapeze show with an exotic cocktail; enjoy one of the many cabaret performances that range from the camp to the psychedelic.
It may be gaudy and gauche, but let yourself go in Las Vegas and you can’t fail to have a fun weekend break, but don’t forget your platinum card, as you may well find yourself in the mood to spend!
