Exploring any city in just 24 hours is quite difficult. But trying to experience all that Las Vegas has to offer in 24 hours makes climbing Mount Everest seem easy. Okay, not really, but we're sure you understand the point.
Las Vegas is a city that was built on the foundation of adult freedom, fulfilling fantasies so to speak and providing low-cost luxuries for all, an idea far ahead of its time. But it is clear that the founders of this city had something ingenious, as this vision has worked for them to live to this day.
It is here that legends like Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra created a legacy that helped turn Las Vegas into what is now the entertainment capital of the world.
So, in a city that never sleeps and offers a plethora of activities wherever you want to see, it can be a bit tiring to navigate and, to say the least, if you only have one day. Luckily for you, that's why we created Las Vegas Night World, your guide to a day in Las Vegas.
For those of you who haven't been to Las Vegas, you can believe that just walking from one end of the Strip to the other. It's only five miles. But five miles in this city is not the same as five miles in another. Your best bet for looking at all you want is to start at one end and work your way to the other. We recommend starting at the Four Seasons and moving towards the STRAT Hotel, Casino & Skypod. And please listen to us when we say don't try to walk to all the attractions.
In the morning in Las Vegas
For those of you who haven't been to Las Vegas, you can believe that just walking from one end of the Strip to the other. It's only five miles. But five miles in this city is not the same as five miles in another. Your best bet for looking at all you want is to start at one end and work your way to the other. We recommend starting at the Four Seasons and moving towards the STRAT Hotel, Casino & Skypod. And please listen to us when we say don't try to walk to all the attractions.
Once you've got your stomach satisfied, it's time to move on to your first attraction of the day, the Las Vegas Welcome Sign, which is just a mile south of the Four Seasons Hotel. Considering that this is the most iconic attraction in Las Vegas, it would be a bad idea to skip this attraction.
If strong emotions aren't your thing, don't hesitate to skip this attraction. But for those who love to feel adrenaline rushing through their veins, then you have to take a ride on the Big Apple Coaster roller coaster in New York-New York. At this point, your breakfast has most likely settled down, but considering it's Las Vegas, should you take a chance?
At noon in Las Vegas
Next up in the challenge, the famous Bellagio Fountains, considered the most "Instagrammed" place in Las Vegas. Be sure to check out the fountain show that sends water 460 feet into the air, but only if you find yourself on a weekend. On weekdays, the show starts at 3pm and you can take lots of pictures.
But don't leave Bellagio before visiting the Conservatory and Botanical Gardens. This beautiful seasonal view changes with the holidays and always offers a new experience as the years go by, so you can be sure that no matter how many times you visit, you will never see the same landscape twice. To continually preserve something so great and spectacular, a total of 120 employees are needed to maintain that image throughout the year. Now is the time for lunch.
Across the street from the Flamingo, inside Caesars Palace, you will find one of the best buffets in Las Vegas, Bacchanal Buffet .. It just wouldn't be a great trip to Las Vegas without trying one of their famous buffets. While you're there, make sure you get enough to eat, as dinner is a little longer on this 24-hour trip.
Once you've finished eating, should I go shopping or visit The Forum Shops at Caesars? Or whichever you prefer. Inside, you will find more than 160 shops, Roman statues, a replica of the Trevi Fountain, the spectacle of the fountain The Fall of Atlantis and a ceiling painted in the sky that gives the illusion that it is always daytime.
At this point it is best to go back to your room and put on night clothes. But don't you dare get just a little sleep.
Night in las vegas
If you are still not giving up and are determined to complete this 24 hour challenge then you must visit the Chandelier Bar at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. It's one of the most impressive bars on the Strip - a three-story bar surrounded by crystal hanging chandeliers is something you will never find anywhere else. While you are there and if you are looking to try something new, be sure to try the Verbena cocktail.
After a drink or two or three, let's have dinner at Giada De Laurentiis' eponymous restaurant, Giada's at The Cromwell .. Because what trip to Las Vegas would be complete without dining at a celebrity chef's restaurant? If we still have time before dinner and want a photo option, be sure to make a stop at the Eiffel Tower in Paris Las Vegas. It is almost as high as the real one in Paris.
Ready to see the whole city? Our next attraction is going to allow us to do just that. The High Roller observation wheel, located at The LINQ Promenade + Experience, offers us a 360-degree view of the city from 550 feet in the air. A full rotation takes 30 minutes.
So there you have it, the best places to visit if you only have one day in Las Vegas. Are you ready to explore Las Vegas in one day?
