Las Vegas Strip

The Las Vegas strip is where the action is. It's a 24-hour party... but the strip really comes alive at night with its millions of lights and vibrant colors.

It's easy for first time visitors to be blown away by the sights and sounds of Vegas. It can seem a tad overwhelming by the size of the buildings... the year-round crowds... and the raw energy and excitement of Las Vegas.

Your first glimpse of Las Vegas is often from the seat of a plane. Flying in at night is particularly enchanting.

The diversity of the buildings is something to see. Where else in the world can you enjoy spectacular recreations of a pyramid, (Luxor) the Eiffer Towel (Paris) Venice-like gondolas and buildings (Venetian) the Colliseum in Rome (Caesar's Palace) a Medieval Castle (Excalibur) and the Statue of Liberty and street scene of New York (New York New York)... all on one street?

Only in Vegas, baby!

The strip itself is a surprisingly long stretch that features many of the finest hotels, resorts and casinos in Las Vegas. If you're planning to walk it, be sure to wear comfortable shoes.

Check out the many amazing hotels. Visit the casinos along the way and try your luck. Enjoy a drink at the bar while you take in the sights and sounds of Vegas. When you get hungry, you can choose from an unlimited array of delicious foods.
