2. See Cirque du Soleil
Cirque du Soleil is probably the most famous circus in the entire world, and one of their shows is quite the experience. It’s part circus, part theater, and part visual arts display, and it’s gained a lot of traction over the years. Vegas is one of the few places where you can catch a show too. They run various shows pretty consistently throughout the year, but the show worth checking out would be “O” which is put on at the Bellagio.

1. Take a helicopter tour
Las Vegas is truly something else at night, and the lights from this city can be seen for miles. However it’s pretty difficult to appreciate all the lights from the ground, so why not take a helicopter tour? There are a host of different companies in Vegas that provide helicopter tours of the city, and they are definitely worth taking. Some will even pick you up from your hotel and then drive you to them in a limo.
