Vegas is essentially an adult’s playground and there are ample things to do, ensuring you’re never bored in Sin City. Whether you want to take control of some diggers, get familiar with a battleground, see an incredible show, go skydiving or visit Red Rock National park, there’s something for everything in Vegas. The biggest challenge when visiting Las Vegas is not finding what to do, but narrowing down all your choices! We’ve made a list of the best things to do during Las Vegas Holidays so that you can get started planning your trip of a lifetime.
Dig This
This is a very unique experience and reminds me of being a child in a sandpit. This is the first and only heavy equipment playground where you are completely in control. Here you can operate a real bulldozer, weaving around cones and knocking dirt over. This is a really unusual but fun way to spend your holiday and certainly provides a contrast to all the glitz and glam of Vegas. If you’re traveling with teenage boys, or men who are young at heart, little else will compare to the novelty and excitement of Dig This!
See a Show in Vegas
There are so many famous shoes that are on in Vegas – it can almost be overwhelming trying to narrow down your options. Vegas is home to a number of wonderful shows including Cirque du Soleil, Remembering Red, Armando Vera, Jersey Boys, Purple Rain, Raiding the Rock Vault, and so much more. The great news is there will be certainly something for everyone, regardless of age and tastes so as long as you look far enough in advance you’ll be able to secure tickets to some of the best shows on the planet.
Battlefield Vegas
These Battlefields contain over 350 machine guns from around the world – from those used in the World Wars right through to what is currently being used in Afghanistan. Battlefield Vegas is a hugely educational complex, offering a unique insight into machinery and weaponry. Often regarded as the best gun range in Vegas, Battlefield Vegas is also home to military helicopter, providing a complete experience.
Red Rock Canyon National Park
If you’ve ever driven to Vegas or seen a show on what Vegas is like, then you’d know that it has one of the most striking landscapes in the world; the fiery red desert providing a strong contrast to the shiny city of Vegas. Red Rock Canyon National Park is only a short drive from Vegas city and a world apart. There’s a visitor’s center that is packed with history and information and a number of hiking trails within the area so that you can really make the most of this beautiful National Park. If you’re short on time it’s possible to drive through the park, enjoying some of the highlights from the comfort of your car.
Skydiving in Vegas
While Vegas probably isn’t the first place that pops to mind when you think of skydiving, it does have a lot to offer in terms of scenery. You’ll be able to see sweeping views of the surrounding dessert, Vegas itself all while enjoying the thrill of flying through the air at impressive speeds. This is a great way to add a little excitement and adventure to one of the most exciting cities in the world. If you love adrenalin and thrill seeking, this is the perfect choice for you.
