\"take<\/p>\n

Steeped in entertainment history, Las Vegas was once a breeding ground for some of the world\u2019s forerunners in music, acting, cabaret and so much more. The likes of Frank Sinatra and The Rat Pack, Louis Prima, Elvis Presley and many other legends have spent copious amounts of time living it up in Las Vegas and gracing the various stages in this iconic city.<\/p>\n

Are you looking for things to do in Las Vegas? Other than having the best flight deals available<\/a>, we\u2019ll give you 6!<\/p>\n

1. Lights, Action, Hollywood!<\/h2>\n

\"Take<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Las Vegas is a breeding ground for hit movie sets spanning decades. Head to Caesar\u2019s Palace<\/strong> to see where The Hangover\u201d <\/em>was filmed or stop by the famed Bellagio<\/strong> to experience the absolute opulence that supplied the backdrop to Oceans 11.<\/em> Don\u2019t forget to snap a picture of the legendary Bellagio fountains while you\u2019re at it! The Planet Hollywood Hotel & Casino <\/strong>also sets the scene for many a Hollywood favourite. Feel free to head there to check out where What Happens in Vegas<\/em>, Knocked Up<\/em> as well as Get Him to The Greek<\/em>\u00a0were filmed.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. Wine Lovers, Come Hither<\/h2>\n

\"Take<\/p>\n

The Rio Wine Cellar and Tasting Room<\/strong><\/a> provides visitors with a truly unique wine tasting experience. A visit here is definitely one of the more memorable things to do in Las Vegas. This cellar turned museum houses over 10,000 bottles of wine, the oldest of which dates back to the year 1800. Patrons tend to enjoy peeking into cabernets to read the interesting labels way more than the actual tastings. Notable wines include Thomas Jefferson\u2019s 1800 Madeira, a Chateau d\u2019 Yquem collection spanning from 1855 \u2013 1990, Joseph Phelps\u2019 Insignia collection dates 1990 \u2013 2005, as well as the more valuable Opus One Library collection from the same period. Are you a wine lover? We think a day-drinking trip is exactly what the doctor ordered!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3. A-List Residencies<\/h2>\n

\"Take<\/p>\n

Anyone in the know will tell you that the hottest residencies are arguably some of the biggest Las Vegas drawcards. We have it on good authority that, besides actually going to Hollywood, a trip to Las Vegas is the closest you\u2019ll get to priceless celebrity selfies. Keep yourself insta-ready just in case! This could also be your opportunity to see anyone from Mariah Carey or Bruno Mars to Sting or Lady Gaga. There is no shortage of world-class shows to choose from. Over and above absolute A-list entertainment, the venues are nothing short of breath-taking. Treat yourself to top drawer ambience, world-class production and mind-blowing stage presence.\u00a0 Tis the experiences magical memories are made of.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

4. Rustle Up Some Grub<\/h2>\n

\"Take<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s face it. Who hasn\u2019t binge-watched cooking shows? Well, watch no more! The Las Vegas strip offers you the rare opportunity to see celebrity chefs in their natural habitat. The list of possible dinner options is about a mile long and well worth some decent planning. Choose from world-famous eateries like Nobu Matsuhisa\u2019s Nobu<\/strong>, Gordon Ramsey\u2019s Hell\u2019s Kitchen<\/strong>, Guy Fieri\u2019s Vegas Kitchen & Bar<\/strong>, Giada De Laurentiis\u2019 Giada<\/strong> and Bobby Flay\u2019s Mesa Grill<\/strong>\u00a0to name but a few. Who knows? You might see one of these iconic chefs in action!<\/p>\n

<\/h2>\n

5. Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area<\/h2>\n

\"Take<\/p>\n

It doesn\u2019t matter when you go, a trip to Las Vegas is not complete without experiencing a marvel of nature. Part of the Nevada Mojave Desert, the Red Rock Canyon<\/strong> <\/a>is known for stunning red sandstone peaks, Native American petroglyphs as well as the Keystone Thrust Fault. After paying an entry fee of about $15, there is a scenic loop drive with potential pictures begging to be taken. If you feel like getting closer to the gorgeous rock formations, feel free to choose from 26 hiking trails ranging from short and easy to longer hikes for those of great fitness prowess. We recommend starting off with the Calico Hills trail as it starts off going downhill before meandering through larger red and orange rocks that make for priceless pictures and memories. The Calico Hills<\/strong> trail and great for kids as well so make a day trip of it!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

6. Go to the Chapel<\/h2>\n

\"Take<\/p>\n

There is a reason why Las Vegas is known as the Marriage Capital. The longstanding Las Vegas wedding tradition is a perfectly entertaining way to wind down your trip. Fancy being married by an Elvis Presley impersonator? No? That\u2019s okay. There\u2019s still plenty to do in and around Las Vegas wedding chapels. You can witness other couples tying the knot, be entertained by very good Elvis Presley impersonators, grab a bite and a drink at one of the many surrounding eateries and laugh about the over-the-top love proclamations that will inevitably greet your eyes and ears.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

That, folks, is why a trip to Las Vegas is an absolute must for those looking to experience the forefront of entertainment, food and luxurious indulgence. At this point, you should be just about ready to book that flight and head for the proverbial \u201cVegas stint\u201d. There are only two things left to remember. Remember, what happens in Vegas must, at all times, stay there and Viva, viva Las Vegas!<\/p>\n
