Bellagio's Fountains
"Experience the most ambitious, commanding water feature ever
conceived! Bellagio's world-famous fountains will speak to your heart
with opera, classical and whimsical music while flirting with your
playful nature through their carefully choreographed movements. You'll
be swept away by this breathtaking union of water, music and light."
"PROS:
Memorable and free
CONS:
Not a bad view to be had!
What a beautiful sight! The singing/dancing waters of the Bellagio
fountain was so well worth the trip. I could have stood there all
evening and watched it over and over again.
To really enjoy the fountain, go after dark. Wow! Don't miss this one."

Gondola Rides at the Venetian
"The gondola ride at the Venetian was truly as close to Venice as you
can get. Our gondolier, Daniel, was actually from Italy and sang to us
in Italian. Try to go when it's not too busy, then you can get a
private gondola for the price of a group (4 person - $15 per person)"
"The Gondola Ride was recommended by a Vegas guide. We loved it. The
experience was well worth the price. Our Gondolier sang Dino's "That's
Amore" and other tunes as we kissed under the bridges. We wanted to
ride again as soon as we finished. Will definitely recommend this
attraction to all our family and friends."
"Taking the gondola ride was one of the highlights of my life. This
was really a wonderful experience, and anybody who goes to Vegas
should include the ride as part of the trip!!"

Red Rock Canyon
"Red Rock Canyon is beautiful, great hiking for all levels and a great
place for taking awsome photos. If you do go make sure you stop at
Calico Basin which is just up the road from the Red Rock Canyon Park
entrance. It is open to the public and no fee. You can have a picnic,
climb the rocks or just sit and view the beauty scenery. When we were
there in April of 2004 there was a group of american indians druming
in the Basin. Loved It!! Definately going back for more!!"
"If you are tired of the pumped in oxygen and the constant casino
bells ringing from the slots, take a liesurely drive about a half hour
west of the strip to Red Rock. You don't need to go hiking, although
you will think about it when you see the natural beauty that is
unbelieveably so close to Vegas. If you have kids, they will love it.
There is a loop approximately 12 miles around the park with a number
of parking areas to stop and explore if you would like. Wild donkeys
can usually be seen as well as desert tortoises and sometimes more! A
great breakaway from the casinos hidden over the hill from the strip.
You won't be disappointed. Bring water though, its a long way to a
water fountain."

"Shark Reef At Mandalay Bay
This Las Vegas attraction features Sharks, tropical aquariums, a jelly
fish exhibit as well as a few crocodiles. A great way to spend a few
hours. You will come in contact with numerous species of sharks,
marine invertebrates and rays. All in a ancient sunken temple themed
locale. Walk through a tunnel where sharks surround you and put your
fingers in the touch tank. No other Las Vegas attraction allows you to
touch living sea animals."
