The Ultimate Tourist

The Foodie on a Budget

When you're looking to escape all the high-priced restaurants with mediocre food on the Vegas Strip, your best option is Lotus of Siam. There's typically a long wait, so get there early. Tip: when they say spicy — they mean it.

The only thing that would make Magic Mike Live any sexier would be if every ticket holder got a personal lap dance from Channing Tatum.

If sitting by the pool while answering emails on your laptop is your idea of relaxing, you need to wake up. The Spa at Encore takes decompressing to an unimaginable level of luxury.

Driving a Cheverolet Tahoe into the middle of the dessert with a Polaris RZR strapped to the back automatically gets your adrenaline sky high. At Zero1, you can go even further by racing your RZR over rocky hills and through twisty sand washes at speeds of 60 mph. It's the side of Vegas most people never see. Be prepared to have dust in every nook and cranny.

Painted rocks stacked in the middle of a desert landscape are what an Instagrammer's wildest dreams are made of. Seven Magic Mountains will give you posts for weeks.

If money isn't an issue, let your first meal in Las Vegas be at é by José Andres. There are many restaurants that claim to be fine dining in Vegas that never live up to the price tag. é is not one of them.

The Diva

No need to turn back time to see this fantastic diva. At 71 years old, Cher is still killing it. You'll be in awe of how many hits she's had during her long career. If you're visiting during a time when Cher isn't performing, don't worry, I've heard a guy by the name of Bruno Mars fills in when she's away.

Yes, the bodies in the Real Bodies at Bally's exhibit are REAL! Nerd alert is an understatement.

Look at that picture. Rehab Beach Club at the Hard Rock Hotel gets messy. Real messy. You'll love it.

If that cash you won last night playing the slots is burning a hole in your pocket, prepare to get your Pretty Woman on at The Shops at Crystals.

The Nature Fanatic

Not many people realize in Vegas you can be screaming at a Celine Dion concert one minute and the next you're helicoptering into the bottom of the Grand Canyon. It can be a bit of a trek, but if you have the time, it's an absolute must see. There's a reason they call that canyon grand.

The Nostalgic One

The Golden Gate Casino is the Las Vegas OG. While it has been renovated many times over, it's quite a trip to walk in there and know it has been a travel destination since 1906.

Is the Big Apple Coaster touristy? You bet. Is it an instant kid-pleaser? One-hundred percent. It's an adult-pleaser too!

The Booty Shaker

It's Jennifer Lopez. Do we need to say any more? She is flawless in this provoking high-energy show. And damn, does she look good.

The Not Easily Impressed

If you're that person who rarely is impressed by a show, I challenge you not to let your jaw drop when you watch O. A water-filled stage overtaken with shocking acrobatic stunts and dance will leave you breathless.

The Magician

Illusionist David Copperfield is still selling out shows in Vegas after performing for decades, and there's a reason: he's simply the best in the game.

The Crime-Solver

They don't call it Sin City for nothing. It's no secret that Las Vegas has quite a checkered past, and you can dive right into it at The Mob Museum. This spot is dedicated to the city's history of organized crime and law enforcement and is basically Goodfellas come to life.

The Jokester

The acrobatics in Absinthe are reason enough to see this show, but the comedy is that kind of funny where you spit out your drink and find yourself with snot dripping out of your nose.

The Engineer

The massive hotels are not the only structures in the Vegas area that will make you look up in wonder. It's easy to forget the Hoover Damn is only a 45-minute drive from the strip. This enormous engineering feat is well worth the short ride. This could also be filed under a special spot for Instagrammers.
