    When we think of Las Vegas, the first things that come to mind are its neon lights, casinos, neon signs and nightly shows. And its picturesque chapels where more than 120,000 weddings are held each year. But the main city of the state of Nevada is much more. Do you want to know everything you can see in Las Vegas and its surroundings?

    You can also see incredible shows, go shopping or even visit very interesting museums. The main city in the state of Nevada offers something for all tastes and ages. Don't you think so? Read on.

    1. Tour the Las Vegas Strip

    It is the main artery of the city where the casinos and the most famous hotels of Las Vegas are located. If you book your guided walking tour of the Strip, you'll find that the atmosphere on this 6-kilometre-long boulevard is vibrant by day and night. Its main attractions are the colourful neon lights and giant screens, the crowded casinos, the imposing hotels and the fascinating shows.

    One of the best things to do in Las Vegas at night is to visit the Las Vegas Strip, when the sunlight gives way to the glow of the illuminated signs that decorate this street. A stroll along the Strip will take you to the famous hotels and their amazing ambience and architecture, being the Bellagio Fountains or the Mirage Volcano two examples that attract hundreds of people.

    Moreover, this is the location of one of the most frequented shopping centres in Las Vegas: the Fashion Show Mall, which is full of shops and restaurants, where you can enjoy some of the gastronomic tours of Las Vegas.

    At 350 metres high, the Strat Tower is the tallest building in Las Vegas and the state of Nevada. Spectacular views await you at the top. If you want to take amazing photos, I advise you to book your entrance to the Strat Tower at dusk, when the lights and signs of the city are turned on.

    You can also enjoy a quiet drink in the tower's bars and restaurants. Or, if you're a thrill-seeker, take a ride on one of the rides at the top. They will send you soaring through the Las Vegas sky.

    3. Take a trip to the Grand Canyon of Colorado

    Booking your Grand Canyon tour is an experience you must include in your trip to Las Vegas. It is divided into three parts: the North Rim and South Rim (managed by the National Park Service with wonderful views) and the West Rim (the area most visited by Las Vegas tourists, which is managed by the Hualapai Indian Tribe).

    The West Rim area is home to one of the most popular visitor attractions, the Skywalk. A horseshoe-shaped glass-floored platform suspended on a cliff over 1,200 metres above the Colorado River, the experience is highly recommended if you're not afraid of heights! And if you have vertigo, an occasion like this is the best to overcome it and enjoy a unique landscape that you will never forget.

    Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is a steep gorge carved by the Colorado River over more than 2 billion years. With its staggering dimensions of 446 kilometres long and a maximum height of 1,500 metres, you only become aware of the proportions of the place when you look out from one of the Grand Canyon's viewpoints and are captivated by the beauty and immensity of the place.

    It is very common to see the bride and groom heading by limousine to the wedding venue or along the Las Vegas Strip and Fremont Street posing happily for their photo shoot. Every year thousands of couples take advantage of their trip to the United States to seal their love and walk down the aisle in one of the picturesque chapels dotted around the city.

    What encourages many couples to get married in Las Vegas is that it's a little bit crazy and something to take home as a souvenir, but also that, unlike in other places, they don't have to spend a lot of time on wedding planning and paperwork. Having a wedding in Las Vegas is quick, easy and fun and can be done overnight.

    Las Vegas offers the bride and groom many original options for saying 'I do': from romantic traditional chapel weddings with Elvis as master of ceremonies to themed weddings that have an extravagant twist to make the day even more special and memorable.

    Casino, Las Vegas| ©Richard Johnson

    Here's a little game for you: when you enter a casino in Las Vegas, any casino, don't just look at the tables or the slot machines, look for a clock. Look for a clock, will you find it hidden in a corner, perhaps on a bar or a table? This search will allow you to notice surprising details.

    Time will surely fly by as you try to overcome the challenge. But it will be difficult, if not impossible, to do so. In casinos there are no clocks, and no windows. This makes it much easier to immerse yourself in the game. Now you know one more curiosity about Las Vegas.

    We enjoyed a nice day. I went with my two grandparents and it was not an impediment at all. The guide was very concerned about us at all times. I loved the experience.

    Nice views whether it is winter or summer. It's the second time I've done it and now I had the chance to see them without snow. Both visits were beautiful and I booked it here as well. Everything was perfect.

    Both places will impress whoever goes there. They have great history and scenery. It is very well signposted and with the help of the guide we were able to see them from their best angles.
