[QUOTE="NeekReevers, post: 1312646, member: 3458"] Been to Vegas many times. For shows, you can't be the Cirque du Soleil shows. They are expensive, but worth it. I've seen Ka, Mystere, O, Love, and Criss Angel. I would rank them in that order from best to worst. Someone mentioned the Half Price Ticket shops and I would definitely hit those. They add fees and everything so its never half price...it should be called 3/4 price. For free sights...the Bellagio fountains are awesome. Also see the Volcano at Mirage. The pirate show at TI sucks and isn't worth wasting your time on in my opinion. I think the white tiger and lion habitat at Mirage is free as well and is pretty cool. Beyond that, you can spend as much time as you want just walking through the casinos on the Strip. Almost all of them have some cool features that are worth looking at. I have never stayed at the Venetian but you will like it. It's my favorite casino but my wife likes the Wynn so that is where we end up. For food try a place called Hash House a Go Go. I'm pretty sure its on Sahara west of the strip. They make home cooking type food that is really, really good. I think they may have one in Imperial Palace now but I have only been to the one on Sahara. One other thing....if you don't want to be limited to just the strip, rent a car. I hear people all of the time advising people to not rent a car. We have rented a car every time we've gone to Vegas and never regretted it. You are free to go where you want, when you want, parking is free at all of the Strip casinos, and traffic is not bad. The only thing I would avoid is driving the strip on the nights on the weekends. That is impossible. Beyond that, its not bad. Renting a car will cost you about $15 a day and you'll spend over $20 each way in a taxi just getting from the airport to the hotel. Some people don't like it but were always glad we have it because we like to get off of the strip. Have a great time...Vegas is a Disneyland for adults. [/QUOTE]
