I absolutely loved the Cirque du Soleil show O at the bellagio. It was fantastic!

If you have some time and are into it, visit the Hoover dam. It's pretty cool. Also, if you have time and are into nature visit Red Rock Canyon. So beautiful.

All of these! Red Rock Canyon is really close to Vegas (about 15 mins from the strip). If you want to do a full day trip, you can go to the Hoover Dam and then on to the Grand Canyon. "O" is definitely the best Cirque show I've seen (out of about 7 total that I've seen). I also love to just walk through some of the hotels - see the fountain show in front of Bellagio, gondola ride in the Venetian, Roller coaster in/on New York New York. Almost of the hotels have something interesting to see.

Re: Vegas

Le Reve, Cirque du Soleil show at the Wynn is amazing. It's their original water show and it is beyond words!

Crazy Horse Paris at MGM is great too.

The dining options are endless so it is hard to recommend without knowing your taste. What kind of food do you prefer?

If you've never seen them before, Blue Man Group! Tickets are pretty reasonable and it's a great show! But if you've seen them elsewhere (NY or on a cruise) don't bother- the show is the same.

Re: Vegas

When we went I did a lot of reseaech on trip advisors forum. I was able to get in touch with promotors from contacts on there to get on guests lists for some of the lounges and clubs.
We had stayed at the Aria and spent one day in the spa with a spa pass where they had a co-ed outdoor heated pool which was fun for hanging out.
We had dinner at Gordon Ramsey steakouse which was good and a fun experience since we were Hells Kitchen fans.
We saw the Zumanity show and thought it was good/funny.

I recently saw the Cirque Beatles Love show at the Mirage and it was awesome! Its fun to just walk through every hotel to see what each is about. The gondola at The Venetian is fun, the statues that come to life at Caesar's is cool to watch, I also love watching the fountain show at the Bellagio. The breakfast buffet at Paris is really good, Carnegie Deli in the Mirage is fun for lunch.
