The new 21st-century Las Vegas is nothing like the Vegas of old. Amazing new hotels have sprung up in recent years, setting new standards in service and facilities.
In a nutshell
The cheesy entertainers of yesteryear were shown the door, as permanent theatres show world-class entertainers such as Cirque du Soleil, Blue Man Group and Elton John. There are brand-new thrill rides, sumptuous pool complexes with wave machines, lots of golf courses and amazing shopping, from designer boutiques to out-of-town factory outlet stores. 24 hours a day, this really is the entertainment capital of the world. Still not satisfied? Don't forget those casinos!
Eats & drinks
There is so much to choose from it is hard to know where to start; traditional burger restaurants rub shoulders with beautiful fine-dining venues, but don't forget the all-you-can-eat buffet!
Fun & games
Visits to the Grand Canyon, helicopter rides over 'The Strip', Fremont Street light show, spectacular shows including Abba-inspired Mamma Mia, bars and nightclubs! Las Vegas is 24-hour entertainment.
Non drivers
We can transfer you from the airport to your hotel and back again! (extra charge). There is a shuttle bus (extra charge) that operates on 'The Strip' and a new monorail operating from the MGM Grand to the Sahara Casino. Please Note: Hotels will require a credit card imprint when checking in to cover incidental charges.
Getting around
Do you want to make the most of Las Vegas and its surrounding areas? Then you will be pleased to hear that we include car hire in all of our 3- and 7-night Las Vegas package holidays!
You have the option of collecting your hire car from the airport on arrival into Las Vegas, or you can choose to pick up at a different time or place, as there are Dollar depots located at many central locations throughout the city.
Simply let us know where and when you wish to collect your hire car and you can hit the open road to explore all that Las Vegas and the surrounding areas have to offer.
You can even upgrade your vehicle before you travel - imagine yourself cruising around Las Vegas in a convertible - take in the glitz of the city or drive out to the Grand Canyon and see one of the most outstanding natural wonders of the world.
Please Note: Most hotels will also offer FREE parking in Las Vegas for your convenience (see individual hotel pages for details).
Getting there
7 flights a week from London. 3 flights a week from Manchester.
