There are many places to visit and things to do in Las Vegas. The city itself and the surrounding areas are attractions already. You may walk on the strip and savor the wonders of its casinos and luxurious hotels.

Leisure and business activities are non stop in this busy city. At night, you may have the option of watching shows and have fun gambling on its famous casinos. When you want a vacation full of entertainment and fun, then this is the perfect destination.

Generally, the main attractions of the city are its hotels and casinos. The most popular hotels are the MGM Grand, The Ritz Carlton, Stratosphere Casino Hotel and Tower, The Mirage and the Las Vegas Hilton Hotel.

Other popular sight attractions in Las Vegas are the hotels and casinos' free shows like the Bellagio's water fountain ballet, masquerade show at the Rio, and the Mirage's volcano white tiger exhibit. Aside from its hotels and casinos, the museums are also places worth visiting.

However, you should prepare well before making the trip to Las Vegas especially if it is your first time. Here are some Las Vegas vacation tips that will help you to experience the best Las Vegas vacation.

1. Look and book for hotel reservations ahead preferably 2 to 3 weeks before taking the flight. It is also recommended that you purchase tickets early. You will find flights that require advance purchase of tickets, in this way you can avoid long piles of lines in the airport for ticket buys.

2. If it is your first time in the city, make sure that you stay near the strip. The strip is the best place for you to enjoy. You will savor the beauty of Vegas attractions such as the white tigers at the mirage, fountains of the Bellagio, pirates show at the Treasure Island and the lions' den of the Mirage.

3. Most of the hotels and casinos are just a few steps away. You may not need to rent a car. Staying a hotel at the center of the city would be a perfect choice to stay in.

4. Exclusive shows in the hotels and casinos may really cost expensive. You may save money by going to free shows which are also main attractions in Las Vegas. You may watch free circus acts at the Circus Circus. Visit the human statue Venetian, watch the Pirate Show at the Treasure Island, see the M&M store at New York Street and enjoy the fountain exhibition at the front of the Bellagio.

When visiting Las Vegas, remember these tips on what you can do in the city especially if you do not have enough budget to enjoy expensive entertainment. It is up to you on how to have a great time in Las Vegas. For sure, you will never forget your first Las Vegas experience.

You are most definitely right in citing the MGM Grand, the Ritz Carlton and the Bellagio as places you should see while in Las Vegas. I dare say it should be top on everyone's list of things to do in Las Vegas, well ahead of gambling. These places simply defy description. Always takes my breath away when I'm there.
