    You can get coupons and flyers from representatives on the street for some of the classier joints.

    hahahahahaha.....wait till you get a gander at these folks being referred to here.....

    Cirque show "O" at the Bellagio....incredible show...pricey, but an incredible show. Mystere at Treasure Island IS a good show too. Ka was ok, but probably my least favorite of the cirque shows that I've been to there.

    Have a WONDERFUL time....LOVE Vegas!!

    If you are going to gamble you will want to visit old town (yes that is what it's called) It is the old strip with the older hotels and casinos. They are still beautiful with lots of pretty lights but most importantly their table games are like $5 hands and the jackpots are still high.
    You will definitely want to visit the strip. It has all the new casinos in a row. They are all so beautiful and have plenty of shows.
    Since you are only going for a short time these are the main two places in Vegas where you will want to spend the most time. Have a blast!!

    Any of the Cirque shows are good - tho they are a bit expensive. I love the Ranch (a steak restaurant) in Harrahs.

    Go to the Hoover Dam, it's less than an hour away by car. It's a must see.

    For a good dinner off strip, try this Brazilain steakhouse. http://www.texasdebrazil.com/

    Freemont Street for watching all kinds of people, plus free acts up and down.

    Rides - Stratosphere Bigshot is my favorite, along with the NY NY rollercoaster.

    And yes, the Planet Hollywood gaming bar "The Pleasure Pit"

    Hey, have fun!!
    I love Vegas... not much comments on food...

    but, I have been to Viva Elvis (Aria), Beattles Love (Mirage) and Le Reve (Wynn) all spectacular. I wouldn't waste your money on Chris Angel (Luxor) or the Titanic Exhibit. Just my personal opinion.

    We went on a limo ride - they bring you at night to all the different hotel attractions - Bellagio Fountains, Las Vegas sign, Mirage Volcano, Treasure Island Pirate show, and Fremont Street (which is awesome toO!!) We paid $240 for 3 hours - I have also done a cheaper version and it sucked.

    outlet shopping is fun as well. I've been the Premium Outlets (the one outside).
    Just walking the strip is fun too..

    Night time - never been to a club, but the Dueling Pianos at NY NY rock (the ones at Harrah's not so much - older crowd)

    Have fun!!!

    Cirque shows are GREAT! #1 on the list should be "LOVE", #2 "KA", # 3 "Mystere". If your into a racier show, check out hypnotist Anthony Cools at Paris. "Phantom of the Opera" is fabulous, too.

    The aquarium at Mandalay Bay is awesome and so is the shopping at the Venetian. I didn't get to do Madame Toussand's but it looked awesome. I was sad I missed out on that one. I've only been once so want to go back to do all the stuff I missed the last time.

    There's a great strip club called Seamless - the cover is kinda high, but get your cab driver to talk with the bouncer and the ladies should get in for cheap.... hottest women I've ever seen with their clothes off.

    It's not on the strip.. I really have no idea where we were, but the cab drivers all seemed to know about it. Hope that helps!

    My husband and his brother are taking their employees and wives (well, 3 of us) on a whirlwind trip to Vegas for a convention. We are flying in on a Monday late morning and flying out Wednesday afternoon. So 2 nights and 1 full day (guys will be at the convention during the day).

    What are some must-see, must-do things/places? What should we not waste our time/money on? What restaurants do you recommend? Any advice is appreciated! :smile:

    When I was in Vegas, I loved the hot dogs lol. I don't usually do hot dogs, but they are awesome. If you have time, go see Criss Angel. He was amazing. I can truly say he freaked my mind :p

    You HAVE to see Phantom of the Opera in the Venician! Amazing! Watch the fountains at the Bellagio, and go to the top of the Eiffel Tower inside the Paris!

    Adding: Go to the little bar that's in a corner of the Sahara! They have $1 hotdogs and kamikaze shots. You get to keep the shot glasses too, so makes for a great keepsake or to give to people when you get back! The bartenders are super awesome and nice! The bar is close to the Nascar Cafe
