I just did my first Vegas trip to meet relations from Canada, LA, and UK. Mostly fun. Stayed at the Golden Nugget at INCREDIBLY cheap rates. Didn't lose a dime on gambling. And certainly did not drink up to "the norm". Because of my lodgings and drinking habits, I never had an urgent need for the "porcelain convenience". But you can see I'm not at all a typical visitor. What do the typical visitors do? Are businesses OK with any wanderer on the strip walking in and saying "can I use your bathroom"? (Unrelated note: Had a REALLY nice buffet there!)

Please can you advise the times, fares and accomadations for the dome train to Berlin from Dusseldorf...( first class please)....Thank You so very much...Susan in Las Vegas, NV. USA

does anyone know of a good outdoor pool that would still be open mid october at a casino on the strip

Hi,

I'm doing a US Multi Centre holiday and we will be in Las Vegas from 21st December for approximately a week.

We plan on doing Grand Canyon for 1 night (South Rim) and then 1 day out to Hoover Damn, we are also going to get married whilst there.

We have a 14 year old who is Autistic so although we are aware it will be busy and crowded we need alternative things to do if things become too much for him. He's well travelled and we put several things in action to limit his stress but plan b's are a good idea.

Also which hotels are actually the best located mid strip?

Are performances etc. all open on Monday evenings for the Fremont Experience in Las Vegas??

Hi, I'm off to LV for the week, visiting family and I enjoy dancing and good music more than gambling. Shows are expensive, too. Any ideas for good places to hear R&B or Django jazz? Or how about Lindy or east coast swing dancing?
Would love meeting up with locals over drinks - where do they go?

Hi Folks. I have not been to Vegas in many years and have no idea what is going on anymore.

Can anybody tell me about new and interesting stuff to do in the "new towers" in Vegas? I was there for a bachelor party but that doesn't really count.

Thank you,

G

This photo by VT Member Roadquill is what I mean by the new towers...

it seems similar, I just want to make sure I am not getting bored after I am seeing the red rock too much after state park

thanks!

Hi I am hoping someone can help us. I want to book a table at Lotus Siam on March 2 or March 3. I have gone on the website but it does not appear to be working. In the contacts section when I type I can only see when I highlight the letters. I have sent an email hoping that it did send but have not received a response. Does the restaurant take bookings? If so, is there an email I can send a booking?

How is the construction coming in front of old imperial palace are they done yet.

Hi all, We'll be spending 2 full days in Vegas in early September, we'd like to do a helicopter tour to the Grand Canyon on one of those days. Can anybody recommend a good tour company? I've heard about Papillon and Maverick, but I'm sure there are lots more? Is it necessary to book such a tour in advance? Thanks in advance!

Hello all, and thanks in advance for your help. My wife and I are coming to Vegas over Valentine's weekend for our anniversary. We need help selecting a few dance clubs. We don't want the recommendation of a promoter who wants us to buy a 1,000 bottle service table. We just want a nightclub with a great dance floor (hopefully hip/hop, top 40 and even a mix of some house if it can't be avoided, lol). We want plenty of good looking peeps like ourselves to mix with. We don't mind a somewhat crowded dance floor, but we don't want to wait in line for an hour or more. Doesn't matter if it's off strip or whatever, we just want to go where the regular folks go to bump and grind to the beat all night without all the pocket picking of the bigshot clubs. We are 30 and 33 yo... Thanks so much everyone! Lyn & Mason

Hi all, I am travelling to Vegas soon and would like to shoot some firearms as I am from Australia. Where is a good place to do this that doesn't require me to have a gun licence but gives a great experience? Thanks.

Hi Everyone, I am planning a trip to las Vegas next year and would like to know if there are any native American themed places near either Las vegas or the Grand Canyon, and what is the best tour to go to see the west rim of the grand canyon. Thanks for ant help

We will be arriving in Las Vegas on Halloween. Any suggestions on something festive, but not scary/gory, we could do with the kids? They are 8, 4 & 2. Thanks!

With the closure of O'Shea's (boo hoo), I've lost my pizza by the slice place that's centre Strip. I really don't like the fast food place in IP. Am I really consigned to going to the other end of the Flamingo Hotel to get a snack/something light?

Anyone done a multi stop to these two places? Decided to venture over the pond for the first time... Never been overly fussed for USA as I am a massive fan of Europe and I also wanted to wait until I had ticked off most of my eastern bloc destinations on my 'to do list' First stop Vegas. It has never really been one at the front of my mind to do, not even in USA. But me and my mrs. wanted to do something completely different to where we have been before. NY Speaks for itself why she would like to go but I am equally excited by this one too to be fair! Any tips on what to definitely see (appreciate a lot of this may seem obvious - even to me it does.) Hopeful there is / will be plenty for us to do, particularly in Vegas as I have always seen this as more of a gambling / stag do destination. We are open to any sort of day trips, activities and events. I am also happy to hire a car. We are in Vegas for 10 days and NY for 5. Next June... We stay in the golden nugget in Vegas and Milford Plaza in NY. We booked today! Cheers in advance!

Taking my 83 yr old Mom to Mexico to say good bye to friends... but I need to drive around Las Vegas coming down 95 from the North west... any suggestions heading to Needles. Her memory is very bad she has mapped out the whole trip from Washington state down but can't remember how they (her 89 yr old sister) went to avoid L.V. Thanks in advance!

Is it sunbathing weather at the moment in Vegas ? Its just that I keep Looking at http://www.wunderground.com/ weather and recently it has shown storms and rain is this what is is really like on the ground

Hello, I was wondering if any one new or if anyone could direct me to a website or contact that would help me find out if there is an event going on anywhere on or around the strip for opening ceremonies. My friends and I are Olympic junkies and we were thinking it would be cool if we could find an Olympic party or just a really cool bar/place to get together with people to watch and celebrate the Olympics. Thank you!!

Hi, I'm on my first trip to Vegas with very little time but I'd like to visit both the Hoover Dam and the Grand Canyon in one go. Is there any tours that allow time at both places but also a flight between to cut traveling time down? Currently it looks like I will have to settle for a heli tour that just flies over the Dam but lands in the Canyon. Which company can people recommend for such a tour?

what is the weather like in october? we've always gone in the spring, but wanted to try a diffrent season. just wondering if shorts will be needed or long sleeves??
