Vivid Views, Lavish Living

Las Vegas, Nevada

With so much to do and see in Las Vegas, it’s hard to know where to start. Between dancing the night away at the famous nightclubs, rolling dice at the casino tables, and watching the theatrical Cirque du Soleil shows, save time to explore some of the city’s unexpected attractions, too.

  • Flamingos
    Flamingo Wildlife Habitat in Las Vegas features not only Chilean flamingos on its 4 acres (1.6 hectares), but also exotic turtles, birds, and fish.
  • Grand Canyon North Rim, USA
    Visit Grand Canyon National Park’s more than 1 million acres (400,000 hectares); the park is bigger than the entire state of Rhode Island.

    • Must-Do: Flamingos may not be what you’re expecting in Sin City — especially right on the Strip — but don’t miss the flock of pink Chilean birds at (where else?) Las Vegas’ Flamingo Wildlife Habitat. Set in a 4-acre garden amid tranquil water features, this is a serene escape from the high-energy happenings of Las Vegas.

    Eat: Check out Mob Museum’s very own underground distillery and speakeasy, where craft cocktails such as the Tequilero Cooler feature on the menu. Alternatively, elevate your evening experience with a special high-rise outing to Skyfall on the 64th floor of the Delano Las Vegas. The ultra- chic bar is the place to take in Vegas views and sip creative cocktails paired with light bites, such as parmesan-truffle French fries.

    Day-Trip: Witness the stark landscape and sheer immensity of the Grand Canyon during a Canyon Tours excursion from Las Vegas. Transportation options range from bus to helicopter, but no matter how you arrive, there’s nothing quite like seeing this unspoiled marvel — one of the world’s Seven Natural Wonders — in real life.
