Stay In The Best Accommodation

Las Vegas is known for some of the most luxurious accommodation in the land. There are high and brightly lit hotels that overlook the strip. However, while most of these hotels are designed to let you go downstairs and gamble, you might want something tamer for a family trip.

You can still get the luxury without the high price. There a lot of apartments and condos with fancy rooms and nice balconies for a perfect stay. So instead of going for one of the big hotels, rejuvenate yourself with hot vacation rentals in Las Vegas. You can get great views of Vegas and a place for your whole family to sleep.

Check Out The Theme Parks

Las Vegas isn’t just for partying- there’s a ton of kid-friendly attractions you can enjoy during the day. The Adventuredome features 25 rides and attractions, with some themed around children’s cartoon characters.

If you’re looking for somewhere to cool off, try out Wet’n’Wild. This is Nevada’s biggest waterpark. It has slides, pools and rides suitable for all age groups, so it’s ideal for a family day out.

See The Unique Attractions

You’re not restricted to just theme park. Las Vegas offers a lot of unique events and attractions your family will love. If you’re a fan of CSI, MGM Grand offers CSI: The Experience, which puts you in the shoes of a crime scene investigator.

Other unique attractions include a Comedy Pet Theater with live animals and Hershey’s Chocolate World. Las Vegas also has a Madame Tussauds. Being known as The Entertainment Capital of the World has its perks, so there’s more than enough family activities.

Do Some Thrill Seeking

There’s plenty of fun to be had for thrill seekers in Las Vegas. There are lots of places for bungee-jumping, zip lining and even some indoor skydiving attractions.

If you’re looking for something closer to ground, you could also try go-karting. The amusement parks offer some great rollercoasters too, so Vegas is truly a thrill seeker’s city.

Go Shopping

There are a lot of shopping centers and malls in Vegas for those who want to indulge themselves in a little retail therapy. Many also offer special events, such as runway shows in the aptly named ‘Fashion Show’ mall.

The best shopping center for a family day out is Town Square. It offers over 1.5 million square feet with shops, restaurants, cinemas and a huge arcade. Children can also have fun in the outdoor play area. In the summer, Town Square also offer free, outdoor movie viewings, so there’s plenty to do here for your whole holiday!
