Couples Massage

Take time to visit one of Las Vegas’s most luxurious spas and enjoy quality time getting a couples massage or some other treatment. We recommend the Waldorf Astoria Spa & Salon (formerly the Mandarin Oriental). It is a 27,000-sq-ft oasis dedicated to total wellbeing.  It has a Hammam, a tranquil steam room with beautiful mosaic tiles and glistening lights, vitality pools, ice fountains, and Experience Shower Journeys. The calming, heated Laconium Room, complete with contoured bench seating and breathtaking views of the Las Vegas Strip.

Helicopter Tour

The Grand Canyon is too far away to visit, but you can take a helicopter ride out there. It’s a scenic and unique experience. Try to book one that also goes over Lake Mead so you can see the Hoover Dam.

You can not visit Vegas and not see a show. The comedy shows are great but we recommend a Cirque du Soleil show where you can see amazing acrobatics.

Horseback Riding

Enjoy a two-hour horseback ride through Red Rock Canyon. This is a great way to see the Red Rocks. 

High Roller Observation Wheel

See all of Las Vegas from one of the world’s tallest Ferris wheel pods. Not only can you see all the neon lights of Las Vegas but you will be able to see way out into the desert as well. For spectacular views, this is a must-do-activity. If you really want to splurge you can rent an entire cabin and have your own bartender on board.

And for a private gondola (for two), the price is set at $116 together. For the shortest waits, be sure to get there early! The ticket booth opens at 9:30 a.m. for the indoor gondola that winds through the Grand Canal Shoppes, and 10:00 a.m. for the outdoor option. The indoor ride runs from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. from Sunday-Thursday, and till midnight on Friday and Saturday.

The outdoor gondola runs from 11:00 a.m. to 9:45 p.m. If you can’t make it till later, be sure to get there at least 15 minutes before closing!
