# Las Vegas — Places to See
|
||
|
||
*Candidate menu of sights. No day plan yet (Sep 30–Oct 3) — pick from here to build one.*
|
||
|
||
> **No car in Vegas:** the rental is dropped at LAX on Sep 30 before flying in. Getting around the Strip is walkable + rideshare/monorail, but **any day trip (Grand Canyon, Hoover Dam, etc.) needs a tour or a separate Vegas rental** — plan that ahead.
|
||
|
||
## The Strip
|
||
|
||
- **Bellagio Fountains** — free water show, every 15–30 min
|
||
- **Hotel-hopping** — Venetian, Caesars, Bellagio conservatory, etc.
|
||
- **High Roller** — observation wheel at The LINQ
|
||
- **Sphere** — shows + exterior display
|
||
|
||
## Old Vegas
|
||
|
||
- **Fremont Street Experience** — light canopy, downtown vibe
|
||
|
||
## Shows & Entertainment
|
||
|
||
- **Cirque du Soleil** residencies (O, Mystère, etc.)
|
||
- Headliner residencies — book ahead
|
||
|
||
## Day trips (need tour or rental)
|
||
|
||
- **Hoover Dam** — ~45 min
