Nevada is a popular tourist destination for all types of travelers. Whether you want to hit up the Las Vegas casinos with some friends, or take your family for an outdoor adventure, Nevada has a wide variety of sites for all types of travelers to enjoy.
Las Vegas, Nevada, is known for its bright lights, celebrity performances, and gambling. The Strip is located in the heart of Las Vegas, with hotel casinos overwhelming its visitors the moment they arrive. Visit the Egyptian themed Luxor Pyramid, ride a gondola through Italy at the Venetian, or look for buried gold at Treasure Island. These are just a few of the great hotels to visit in Las Vegas. You can dine, shop, gamble, and watch shows at all of the hotels without being a guest. Las Vegas allows you to tailor your trip to be a little on the wild side with adult entertainment, or make it family-friendly by seeing kid-safe shows like Cirque du Soleil and the Excalibur Casino’s Tournament of Kings jousting performance.
Another popular destination in Nevada is the city of Reno. If you’re looking for some exiting fun for all ages, head to Reno's Ultimate Rush Speed & Thrill Park. Here you can feel the adrenaline rush of bungee jumping and skydiving on the Skycoaster and Sling Shot. For something a little less wild, try bumper cars, miniature golf, and go-carts. You can also check out Reno’s National Automobile Museum if you’re a car enthusiast. Enjoy the museum’s different exhibitions and collections as you learn about the history of the automobile.
