Located in southern Nevada only a 4-hour drive from the Grand Canyon, sits the 25th most populated city Las Vegas.
Las Vegas is a destination that is known for their luxurious hotels, gambling, night life, and a variety of different types of live shows. Whether you are coming here by private jet for a business meeting or a fast-paced weekend getaway, there are activities for everyone. This city holds some of the world’s greatest shows along with up-and-coming artists.
The Las Vegas Strip is one of the most iconic American vacation locations. Vegas has something to do at any hour of the day. Home to many casinos, night clubs, hotels and hotel pools, along with high end restaurants, Vegas is truly a one-of-a-kind experience.
If you wanted to take a day off from crowds and the fast-paced lifestyle of Las Vegas, you can take a day trip to several different sightseeing locations. Valley of Fire State Park is located only 50 miles northeast of Vegas which is perfect for a day trip. Antelope Canyon is one of the most popular picture locations in the region. To get here you can either rent a car or take an Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend Tour. If you wish to travel a bit farther, you can visit Zion National Park which is 2.5 hours away along with the Western Rim of the Grand Canyon which is approximately 4 hours away from Vegas.
