Description:
Las Vegas is a true original – a classic – and there is nothing else like it in the world.
Today, guests will depart on a city highlights tour – giving them a small taste of the Strip and Downtown Las Vegas. This tour is the perfect overview for guests who have not traveled to Las Vegas before, or for those looking to see the city in a few hours.
As the tour departs the hotel, a knowledgeable guide will begin with a ‘then and now’ history of the Las Vegas Strip. The guide will talk about the days of the Stardust, the Dunes, Elvis and the Rat Pack and how each of those elements helped make Vegas what it is today. Guests will learn about the 'movers and shakers' in Las Vegas such as the infamous Steve Wynn and the empire that he has built.
As the tour continues south on Las Vegas Boulevard, guests will have the opportunity to stop at the Welcome To Las Vegas Sign, which recently underwent a makeover, now making the sign safely accessible for photo opportunities.
Sightseers will then head to Downtown Las Vegas and visit hotels such as the Golden Nugget and see where it all began...
Guests will then head to the top of the Stratosphere Casino, Hotel & Tower. Jutting 1,149 feet into the Vegas skyline, the iconic Stratosphere Tower is the tallest freestanding observation tower in the United States and one of the most exciting attractions among Las Vegas resorts.
