• Las Vegas - This list is frequently updated. It depends on events, openings and closings, new attractions, and guest preferences. For example, if a bar-crawl experience is desired, please let the operator know!
• Palazzo Resort Casino - Begin at one of the most magnificent and luxurious hotels in Vegas, with ceilings so high it feels like entering the vestibule of Olympus. The architecture draws inspiration from various styles: Corinthian columns, art deco details, Romanesque murals, chandeliers as large as small planets, and Dutch-made acrylic birds that sing from a bronze, gold-leaf wishing tree in the morning.

There is no single style, just one unspoken rule: everything must sparkle. It’s a serene, Italian-marble palace. Visitors will pass by a 125+ year-old hand-built gondola, a 12ft tall steel Love sign, and a shopping center filled with happy hours, food, and drink deals in various restaurants - a British Pub with darts and a view of the Strip, a Brazilian, Peruvian & Japanese restaurant bar in an Orange forest, and more. You’ll also see Vegas’s largest poker room and a vintage-style rare bookshop from the TV show Pawn Stars.

It’s luxury without the crowds!

• The Venetian Las Vegas - The Venetian Las Vegas is more than a hotel—it’s a marble and moonlight dream, a Baroque vision transported brick by imagined brick from the canals of northern Italy to the glowing heart of the Nevada desert.

Inside, marble columns rise beside storefronts that masquerade as boutiques but feel like theater sets. The Grand Canal meanders through an indoor piazza filled with happy hours, lunch specials, and hand-painted Italian murals. Its ceiling is a perfect sunset sky that never quite convinces but never quite needs to. It is always daylight in the Venetian.

From the moment you approach, you’re not entering a building—you’re stepping into a story. Gondolas gently rock in turquoise water under a sky that never darkens, piloted by striped-shirt gondoliers who sing beneath bridges sculpted in perfect, implausible imitation.

The Venetian is not about accuracy—it’s about emotion. It’s not trying to be Venice. It’s trying to capture the longing Venice evokes.

• Casino Royale - The Casino Royale in Las Vegas doesn’t boast or shine—it smiles. Nestled on the Strip like a scrappy street poet between marble giants and neon titans, it leans in with a raspy laugh and says, “Come on in, sweetheart. We still do it the old way.” It doesn’t pretend to be a palace. It doesn’t need to. It’s the beating, beer-scented heart of Vegas as it once was—louder, cheaper, and a little more alive.

There’s no chandelier made of a thousand crystals. There’s no Roman column or faux-Venetian canal. Instead, there’s the unmistakable glow of $3 beers, the clatter of cheap chips, and the glorious scent of $3 hot dogs cooked just slightly too long.

Inside, the ceiling feels low, like a secret. The carpet is loud and unapologetic, a kaleidoscope of colors that seem to whisper of long nights and longer odds. The lighting is dim, not moody but practical—because in Casino Royale, the star is the action, not the ambiance. This is Vegas without the designer heels!

• The Piano Bar at Harrah’s - The piano bar at Harrah’s Las Vegas is not just a venue—it’s a lively, laughing, late-night confession booth with a baby grand altar and cocktails for communion. Tucked just off the Strip like a secret only the fun people know, it doesn’t whisper elegance; it shouts joy. The lights are low but the energy is high, fizzing like soda pop in a champagne glass, and the music spills into the casino like a siren song wrapped in show tunes and shot specials.
• Carnaval Court Las Vegas - Carnaval Court at Harrah’s Las Vegas isn’t just a bar—it’s an open-air spectacle, a kinetic carnival of sound and color that pulses like a heartbeat in the center of the Strip. It’s where the desert heat meets the rhythm of live music, and the night air is thick with the scent of cocktails and the promise of spontaneous celebration.

From noon until the early morning hours, this vibrant venue transforms into a street party that never sleeps. Live bands and DJs keep the diverse crowd dancing and grooving, while charismatic flair bartenders dazzle with bottle-flipping performances as they prepare your drinks. For those feeling lucky, blackjack tables offer a chance to test your fortune under the stars.

• The LINQ Casino - The LINQ is a vibrant fusion of modern design and lively entertainment, centrally located on the Las Vegas Strip. This resort offers a dynamic atmosphere with features like the High Roller Observation Wheel and the Fly LINQ Zipline.
• O’Sheas Pub - The smallest casino on the Vegas Strip and home to a favorite frozen Baileys - O’Sheas offers a selection of low minimum table games, including blackjack and roulette, allowing guests to test their luck in a more intimate setting compared to the sprawling casinos nearby. The outdoor bar area provides a perfect spot to soak in the vibrant atmosphere of the Promenade, with views of the High Roller observation wheel adding to the visual spectacle.

Whether you’re seeking a casual drink, a spirited game, or a night of dancing and camaraderie, O’Sheas Pub delivers an experience that’s both sort-of Irish and unmistakably Vegas. It’s a place where every night feels like St. Patrick’s Day, and every visitor is welcomed as a friend.

• The LINQ Promenade - The LINQ Promenade is a vibrant, open-air entertainment district. A pedestrian-friendly esplanade offers a dynamic blend of dining, shopping, and attractions that cater to visitors of all ages.

At the heart of the Promenade stands the High Roller, a 550-foot-tall observation wheel (largest in operation in the world) that provides panoramic views of the city skyline. For thrill-seekers, the Fly LINQ Zipline offers an exhilarating ride soaring above the bustling crowds below.

The Promenade boasts an eclectic mix of over 35 restaurants and retailers, including popular spots like Brooklyn Bowl, Gordon Ramsay Fish & Chips, In-N-Out Burger along with several food and drink happy hour deals.

Whether you’re looking to indulge in culinary delights, shop for unique souvenirs, or simply soak in the lively atmosphere, the Promenade offers a quintessential Las Vegas experience that combines modern attractions with the city’s signature flair.

• Flamingo Wildlife Habitat - Tucked behind the glitz and glamour of the Las Vegas Strip lies a serene sanctuary: the Flamingo Wildlife Habitat. This lush, four-acre retreat offers a tranquil escape from the city’s hustle, inviting visitors to immerse themselves in nature’s beauty.

As you wander through the habitat, you’ll encounter a vibrant array of wildlife. Chilean flamingos, with their striking pink plumage, gracefully navigate the waters, while exotic ducks, and turtles add to the scene. Koi fish glide beneath the ponds, and the gentle sounds of waterfalls provide a soothing backdrop. The habitat’s design, featuring meandering streams and shaded pathways, creates an environment that feels worlds apart from the surrounding city.

It’s a hidden little oasis, in the middle of a casino, quiet, mellow, filled with palm trees and fake grass. Sadly, there’s a Carlos & Charlies that does a morning drink special and a 2-4-1 happy hour but its outside open-air patio overlooks the garden.

• Casino at The Cromwell - The Cromwell Las Vegas is a boutique hotel and casino located at the heart of the Las Vegas Strip. With 188 rooms, including 19 suites, it offers an intimate, Parisian-inspired atmosphere that blends vintage charm with modern luxury. It features a 2-4-1 cocktail happy hour and a $5 drink happy hour!
• Grand Bazaar Shops - The Grand Bazaar Shops at Horseshoe Las Vegas is a vibrant open-air marketplace that captures the essence of global bazaars, reimagined with a Las Vegas flair. Visitors can explore a diverse array of retailers, gift shops, candy stores, and food options. Culinary offerings are equally varied, featuring establishments such as Chicago-style pizza, 2-4-1 drink deals, Wahlburgers, Giordano’s, and Istanbul Mediterranean, providing flavors from around the world.

Whether you’re seeking unique souvenirs, international cuisine, or simply a lively atmosphere to stroll through, the Grand Bazaar Shops offer a dynamic and engaging experience in the heart of the Las Vegas Strip.

• Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Garden - The Bellagio Las Vegas is a sanctuary of elegance and artistry, where the vibrancy of the Strip meets the tranquility of Italian-inspired luxury.

Upon entering, guests are greeted by the awe-inspiring Dale Chihuly glass sculpture adorning the lobby ceiling, setting the tone for the opulence that follows. Beyond the lobby lies the Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Gardens, a seasonal showcase of floral artistry that transforms with each passing season, offering a serene escape from the bustling city.

The resort’s crown jewel is the Fountains of Bellagio, a mesmerizing display of water, light, and music. This has become an iconic symbol of Las Vegas. There’s also a conservatory of thousands of real plants, trees, silk floral displays, and seasonal designs that change every season.

We’ll also view the world’s “largest” chocolate fountain (technically second largest, maybe even third now). It’s officially amazing but not as amazing as the Christmas store if you’re here during that time.

• The Cosmopolitan Casino - The Cosmo is a sanctuary of modern luxury and artistic expression nestled in the heart of the Strip. With its sleek, high-rise towers and distinctive design, it stands as a testament to contemporary elegance amidst the neon glow of Las Vegas.

Upon entering, guests are greeted by the iconic Chandelier Bar, a three-tiered marvel of crystal and light that shimmers like a jewel at the center of the resort. The ambiance is both glamorous and inviting, setting the tone for the experiences that await.

Beyond its well-known attractions, the resort conceals a collection of hidden gems that offer unique experiences for the discerning explorer: an unmarked pizzeria accessible through a hallway adorned with vinyl records, a tequila and nachos bar located behind an unassuming door marked with a white donkey, and, disguised behind a functioning barbershop, a speakeasy-style lounge with live music and an extensive whiskey selection.

• The Shops At Crystals - The Shops at Crystals in Las Vegas is a dazzling fusion of luxury retail, avant-garde architecture, and immersive art, offering a shopping experience unlike any other.
