Mini Guide to Las Vegas
As the top-rated series CSI: Crime Scene Investigation would have it, it’s now the world’s foremost depository for corpses. Yet in reality, around 35 million visitors come to Vegas every year, and almost all leave with thankfully little first-hand experience of blunt force trauma. If you can tear yourself away from the city’s slot machines and blackjack tables, you’ll discover perhaps the premier destination for those with Attention Deficit Disorder.
Simply walking down the fabled “Strip”, Las Vegas Boulevard, constitutes an experience. Here, you’ll find museums dedicated to Kings (Elvis-A-Rama) and prominent queens (the Liberace Museum); over there, everything from geeks (Star Trek: The Experience) to gondolas (The Venetian). And a full-sized replica of the Sphinx. Oh, and a miniature Paris. There are endless live shows, from a very American Folies Bergere through kinds of magic (Queen musical We Will Rock You, currently packing them in) to actual magic (David Copperfield, Penn and Teller). The city’s love of gambling extends to a packed sports calendar: fight nights in Vegas are like nowhere else on Earth, while hotel golf courses provide temporary respite from all those bright and flashing lights.
Speaking of hotels, travellers certainly won’t be stuck for accommodation. Shop around for the best package, and choose wisely depending on your personal tolerance for chintz. Staying in Vegas can serve as a useful base camp for exploring the surrounding desert, which stretches from Red Rock Canyon to Death Valley - if this city exists in a vacuum, as many have claimed, it’s certainly of the sandier variety. One quirk: Vegas’s dedication to the seamy side of life means it’s one of the few locations in America where smoking in public isn’t frowned upon - and as the minimum drinking and gambling age is 21, this probably isn’t the best destination for that family holiday…

- In theory rental car return at Las Vegas airport should be reasonably straightforward, but the signposting to the car rentals return centre is not particularly clear. Make sure you allow plenty of time to get from the car rentals return centre to the departures hall. [by James Avery; Flightmapping.com - 18/11/2005]
- Note that although British Airways do have service desks in Las Vegas airport, they do not currently operate any flights here, so all BA flights to Las Vegas will be operated through another US hub airport by one of their codeshare partners. [by James Avery; Flightmapping.com - 18/11/2005]
- If you are returning by taxi or shuttle service to Las Vegas airport, make sure you know which terminal you are using. Direct international flights operated by airlines such as Virgin, BMI and My Travel will use the international terminal, whereas connecting flights through other US cities (e.g. Delta via Atlanta, Continental via New York etc) will use the domestic terminal.
