Las Vegas

Pros: Amazing, big casinos,plenty to do
Cons: Can be expensive and crowded on the weekends

No matter how many times you've been there before or if you've never been there before there is nothing like going to Las Vegas. Where else can you go and see mega-hotels and casinos, the Statue of Liberty, the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triumph, a giant...

Pros: Everything is always open, lots to do and see, great shows!!
Cons: Hard to travel with kids!

This has to be one of my most favorite places in the world. Las Vegas is AWESOME!!! My husband and I recently flew into Las Vegas from Los Angeles last October and we had a great time!! We were awestruck when we caught a glimpse from the sky...there...

Pros: Amazing show
Cons: Costly, but worth every penny

Never mind that it is constantly sold out, even though tickets cost $110 a pop. Nor that it takes away about 3 hours out of your Blackjack time. This is still THE show to see in Vegas (either via comp'd tix or else get there 1.5 hrs ahead of time to get...

Pros: Beautiful casino, great food, large hotels!
Cons: May not be suitable for young children

I absolutely love the city of Las Vegas! I have vacationed there several times and have yet to have a bad experience of any kind. Each spring my husband and our friends take a trip out to Las Vegas and it never gets dull or repetitive. We have more fun...

Pros: Awesome hotel facilities
Cons: You can spend a bundle

Vegas is a town that is unique to our culture - or anyone else's for that matter. It is a place that goes 7/24 and never stops. You can do just about anything at any hour of the day or night. Perhaps the best entertainment in the country can be seen...

Pros: Great fun for everyone!
Cons: Fun can be pricey!

Las Vegas has to be one of the most entertaining, non-stop, thrilling places in the entire world. There is constantly somewhere to go and something new to see, but what so you do if you are traveling with children and aren't quite sure you want...

Pros: Computer geek heaven. Great stuff!
Cons: 400,000 people agree with me.

This review is for computer geeks who descend like locusts upon Las Vegas in November for Comdex, mother of all computer shows. If you are on exhibitor, you are pretty much taken care of, so wear comfortable shoes and have fun!
If you are not a...

Pros: Fun
Cons: N/A

We go to Las Vegas about once a year. Anytime is fun in Las Vegas. We have stayed on both the strip and downtown.

The strip is glitzy: lights, high rollers, shows, and the big name casinos and hotels. There are a couple of problems with...

Pros: Location, Price
Cons: crowded on the weekends

Looking for a quick get-away? A short drive from Vegas, yet far from the hussle and bustle?
We love Primm Valley.... formerly known as Stateline. Located on the Nevada/California border, less than an hour's drive from Las Vegas.
There...

Pros: neat hotels,lots of stuff for kids
Cons: to far from where I live

but I don't think I'd live here.
I went to Las Vegas a few years ago for a wedding. We stayed at the Excalibur. I found it to be a very nice hotel for families. I had my daughter with me and she was in first grade at the time. We enjoyed going...

Pros: Beautiful sights; great variety of views available; dry and warm (!) year-round
Cons: Sometimes warmer than you think it is

Most of the people I talk to who don't have a good time Las Vegas have two primary complaints: 1) they thought they were going to go home four gazillion dollars richer, and are bitter; 2) they didn't understand that they were coming to the desert,...

Pros: Can be a very cheap vacation
Cons: Can be a very expensive vacation

Las Vegas, the pop culture capital of the US, is able to enchant even the most intellectual person, at least for a short time. Drive up the strip from the airport at night to see some of the most amazing man-made sites in the US.

We arrived in...

Pros: Lots of places to go, fun for all ages, great hotels
Cons: Heavy traffic

My family and I, drove 11 hours from Windsor, California to Las Vegas, Nevada. I thought that Las Vegas wasn't worth 11 hours, I was wrong on that call; Las Vegas was a pretty cool place to visit. I went there in winter on the date 12/15/99. My family...

Pros: A fun time for all
Cons: You need a sitter or go alone to some activities.

Las Vegas is such a fun city to visit that once we had kids I hated to think of no longer going there. Since we had owned a travel agency for a number of years before having children, we went to Vegas often. We used to go to travel seminars there which...

Pros: atmosphere
Cons: scummy in parts

My husband and I aren't big gamblers, but we visit Las Vegas once a year anyway, because the kids love it. We have found Excalibur to be the most kid-friendly resort, with the most tolerant staff. It features a tropical pool with waterslides, a huge...
