LAS VEGAS – There's so much more to Vegas than gambling. Here's a lucky #7 list of things to do in and around town.
1. TAKE A HIKE
Mount Charleston is an alpine thrill, polka band at the lodge included. Red Rock Canyon is the reliable standby.
2. GIVE A DAM
Take a half-day tour of the impressive and historic Hoover Dam with Pink Jeep Tours, and check out the gorgeous new Mike O'Callaghan-Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge, which spans the dam.
3. SINK YOUR TEETH INTO A CHOPPER
Flying into the Grand Canyon on a Maverick helicopter is an unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime thrill.
4. IMAGINE YOUR NAME IN LIGHTS
Neon Museum is a collection of old signs from hotels and restaurants.
5. MOVE THE EARTH
At Dig This, you can learn to operate real construction equipment, like bulldozers and excavators.
6. BURN RUBBER
Learn to race a Lamborghini sitting alongside a pro at Exotics Racing. No speed limits.
7. SWIM WITH THE DOLPHINS
Spend a full day with flippy Atlantic Bottlenose cuties at the Mirage Hotel. As a dolphin trainer for a day, you'll train, swim, feed, and frolic.
