Vegas is certainly a spot I would love to enjoy virtually especially as the crowds return. It would be great to see the Cirque de Soleil special. The Bellagio fountain show is a favourite so would definitely check that out. I did not know there were so many museums. So a virtual tour is a great way to get an introduction. All fun ways to enjoy Vegas.
Finally I watched the Bellagio Fountain Show! The first time I went there I was pregnant and too tired to walk in the evening. The second time I went there, summer last year, after waiting for almost two hours, we heard that it was broken. I also like watching the Freemont Street. The lights are just incredible.
Whenever we go to Los Angeles we would drive to Vegas for a weekend. We don’t gamble but love to see the nightlife of Vegas and go hiking in the surrounding national parks. Now that we can’t travel, let alone to the USA, we enjoy all the virtual tours from home. And this is a great selection of virtual shows that you’ve put together! We really enjoyed the Neon Museum Virtual Tour!
There is so much to see and do in Las Vegas that you can’t do it all. The virtual bits you have here help fill out the things I missed when I was there. I’m definitely going to watch the Cirque du Soleil video.
I certainly agree – I’ve been 3x now (only once to see the city itself) its a great hub to fly into for when we visit the national parks/state parks in the area, so usually we’ll spend a night there at the end/beginning of the trip to explore the city – still will never be able to see it all haha I hope you enjoyed the cirque du soleil video! 🙂
I am actually one of those people that really don’t like Las Vegas. i do see that it has a lot of offer in terms of experiences and shows, though, so this post is the perfect way for me to experience it again.
Wow what an overwhelming amount of information – so useful! Thank you 🙂 I was in LV in 2013 and loved it!
Reminded me of my Las Vegas visit many years ago! Enjoyed the virtual Cirque du soleil show, gondola ride and the fountain show. Never knew virtual tours could be so cool! 🙂
I enjoyed my virtual tour of Las Vegas. Thank you for all the time and effort this post must have taken to compile all the informatin.
I’ve never been to Las Vegas and didn’t really get the appeal but I see it now. Thank you for sharing all of these, putting them up on the TV made me feel like I was there!
Wow, so much fun on this virtual vacation to LA. I’ve never been there so this is the next best thing at the moment and I certainly have it on my bucket list for the future. I love the Cirque de Soleil and the casinos would be fun to check out. The Bellaggio fountain show looks amazing too. Really enjoyed the virtual trip.
I am lucky to have visited Vegas several times and so your virtual tour was a lovely trip down memory lane. I have seen a few of the Cirque du Soliel shows in London but I haven’t seen the one you have on the post so I have pinned to watch later! I think these virtual tours of a city are such a great idea.
Ugh. I miss Vegas. I was suppose to go in July for a cousin’s 21st birthday but I just don’t see that happening. Virtual Visits are tough especially since I use to go to Vegas often living in Phoenix, but this post was super informative and contained so many special parts of Vegas. Thank you for sharing.
This article is really cool. I never thought about it while I am bored at home but will try it out. Thank you!
I haven’t been to Las Vegas yet. Thanks for the variety of videos from the city 🙂 I think I know what I want to see when I go there.
Great bit of virtual travel. I was hoping to get to Vegas for my 40th but who knows know.
Hi! Such a great idea! Thank you for taking me for this virtual tour! I didn’t know that there are such a cool things to see just from my couch 🙂
I have not been to Las Vegas and have been planning for this summers. As due to pandemic, I have cancelled the plans but thanks to your post, as I can now take virtual tour of this vibrant place. Wow loved all your videos of club shows and fountain shows.
Oh no that is terrible you had to cancel your trip. That is such a common thing these past few months during the covid. I hope you’re staying safe, and healthy! Thank you for reading, i’m glad you enjoyed a little taste of Vegas 🤗
I’ve really been enjoying all these virtual journeys during lockdown, Some places I’ve always wanted to see look less appealing and others wasn’t originally interested look fun like Las Vegas. I’ve never been that keen to visit but I see posts like this and think, you know it might be a fun long weekend. Don’t knock it till you try it. And anyway I’d love to see cirque du soliel again.
I agree with all that haha I never had any interest in visiting Las Vegas because I don’t like gambling, strip clubs, dance clubs, drinking.. you know. Vegas. haha However, Vegas is *used to be* the most time/money efficient airport to fly into that area from Detroit. So over the years, as I’ve done National/State park trips in Arizona, Nevada, Utah, and SoCal I would fly into Vegas but not really “see it”. It grew on me over time, and I was pleasantly surprised at how much more there is to do than what I had assumed. I wouldn’t spend more than a weekend there though lol
I relly have v=been enjoying the virtual vacations during this pandemic. They are so creative and really curb the travel to get out of here.
Yes! I have seen some very cool places through virtual travel these past couple months.
I used to live in LA, so Vegas was a standard weekend trip for us, and I think I OD’d on it! The last time I went was to see the Beatles Cirque show — which was absolutely amazing. Vegas has changed so dramatically over the past 20 years, I hardly recognize it anymore. I think Vegas is a place that you have to do at least once in your lifetime … then cross it off the list.
Oh my goodness, I bet the cirque show was just incredible. I saw a holiday one at the Detroit FOX theatre a few years back, and it’s just mind blowing what they can do with their bodies. I agree- everyone should try to experience it at least once. I was never interested in going because I thought it was just strippers, clubs, and gambling – none of which i’m interested in haha but I’ve been a few times now, and it grew on me 🙂
I love how so many places are creating virtual tours as a way for guests and travelers to engage at the time of stay in place and social distancing. I know we all want to travel but there are so many exciting ways to experience a place. I am definitely going to check out some of these virtual concerts.
Yea! The virtual travel experiences are a great way to keep people excited, motivated, and hopeful during these difficult times. A little unique, fun entertainment while stuck in quarentine haha
Ah brought back amazing memories of when I visited back in 2005! Hope to visit again soon! This is such a great post!
Thank you Miriam! I have been a few times in the last 6 years – we usually fly into Las Vegas airport and head on our road trips to the different national/state parks in the area.
With all your suggestions, this could certainly keep you busy for quite some time. Will save this to delve into from time to time, as I am almost certain I won’t be going anywhere near Las Vegas in the foreseeable future.
hahahah yeah you and me both. Logan and I were there in February as we visited Red Rock Canyon National Park & Fire of Valley state park. It was nice to be so close to the parks and be able to do day trips hiking, then come back to the city for food/a good nights sleep. We usually camp on trips like this.
That’s a comprehensive list ! I’m definitely watching the Cirque du Soleil one ! Too bad the Bellagio fountain one is down ! Always wanted to see that ! Thanks for sharing =)
oh no! I’ll have to update that link, some of the videos are only available for a certain period of time from the source I received them from. The cirque du soleil is a great show to keep you entertained during dinner or to relax.
I love all these virtual travel ideas for Las Vegas! They all look so exicting and they are the perfect way to see what you like and what you don’t before you visit in person!
That is so true! I’m going to keep adding to it as more content becomes available for the different attractions. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
I haven’t tried virtual tours yet, even though I’ve been confined for several months now… I would absolutely go for the Cirque du Soleil show. I’ve seen them live a couple of times and it was magical… I wonder if these shows are going to even exist in the new world…
These are all amazing ideas, I would definitely be the person to download the colouring pages though haha! Thanks for sharing!
hahaha do it! Let me know if you have any issues downloading them, that is the first time i’ve used that feature on my blog, i’m curious to hear how the experience goes hah
this is a great virtual tour! experiencing vegas in this is really cool. we all know tha
t las vegas have a lot of thing you can do but through this its amazing..
I’m glad you liked it! I’m going to be adding to it as more content becomes available from my partners. Make sure you watch the Cirque du soleil show!
So thrilled to see that you can enjoy a Cirque show this way. Thanks for sharing.
I was too. That was my favorite video I was able to get. There are more and more partners coming out with similar virtual entertainment options. I’m working on a Disney one now 🤗
You did a great job putting this all together…you captured it so well! I love a weekend in Vegas, and I have never been to the Mob Museum so that was fun.
Thank you so much for the compliments, that means a lot to me. Logan and I were in the area February, and we weren’t able to make it to the mob museum / other museums so i’m glad I was able to find this virtual tour!
Las Vegas looks magnificent! I hope that I will get to visit it one day!
Thank you for all the videos and good info. This is really entertaining 🙂
This is a great way to tour from the comfort of our own homes. As an introvert, I’ve got to admit that I love this whole ‘virtual tour’ reality that we’re finding ourselves in. It’s not to say I don’t want to visit places in person again someday soon, but the break and being able to do it without carrying luggage and having to worry about where the nearest toilet is, is quite comforting!
I second all of that. I’m also an introvert, so while we’ve been in quarantine since March.. I’m ok with it/enjoying the excuse to not be obligated to do things, like getting together with my entire completely dysfunctional family for mothers day 😉
Great post 😁
