There’s plenty to enjoy about a trip to Las Vegas! With so many casinos, resorts, shopping, dining and entertainment options on the Strip, you’re bound to have a great time! But why not take a day to do something off the Strip? Southern Nevada has a bunch of options to make your Vegas vacay a trip to remember whether you stay and play on the Strip or explore beyond Las Vegas neon!
Go Play Outside!
Southern Nevada is an outdoor adventurer’s paradise, whether it’s a hike on Mt. Charleston, a horseback and camping adventure in the Mojave Desert, or enjoying the cool, blue waters of Lake Mead, the team at Las Vegas Outdoor Adventures has got you covered. Hop on an ATV and zoom around the desert or enjoy a comfortable glamping experience on the western rim of the Grand Canyon, with an aerial view from a helicopter. Or if you’d prefer to add a little adventure to your outdoor experience, how about shooting machine guns and other powerful weapons at an outdoor shooting range? Perhaps a bit of off-road racing is more your thing? An outdoor adventure beyond Las Vegas neon is not to be missed!
Play With the Big Boy Toys!
Remember how much fun it used to be to play with your toy trucks and imagine what it would be like to play with a life-sized version? Well now you can! At Dig This Las Vegas, you can hop aboard heavy equipment as you dig, tear, and push a construction playground! They’re open daily and offer several options including Kids Digs, Mini Experience, Big Dig, Mega Dig, Aggression Session and Group Dig activities. Don’t know how to actually operate heavy machinery? No worries! All sessions start with an equipment and safety orientation before you get behind the controls in climate-controlled, radio monitored cabs and maneuver the equipment in individual work areas. It’s a great time the whole family can enjoy. Can you dig it?

Take in a Legendary Show That You’re Dying to See!
Just west of the Strip, at the Orleans Hotel & Casino, you’ll find one of the longest running shows in Las Vegas. The award-winning show, Marriage Can Be Murder, is an interactive comedy murder mystery dinner show that has been slaying audiences in Las Vegas for 25 years. In this interactive dining and entertainment experience, you’ll play detective alongside the outlandishly eager lieutenant and the nosy hostess as you try to solve the who-dun-it mystery, the killer hiding among the guests. The deliciously themed meals include Fowl Play chicken dinner, Dead Meat steak dinner, and Hasta la Pasts vegetarian dinner, which can be combined with unique killer cocktails. The evening is fun for the family, bachelor/bachelorette/wedding parties, holiday parties, reunions and conventions.
Capture the Moment Without Missing a Thing!
