Las Vegas in a Nutshell

Whether you arrive by plane at McCarran International Airport or are greeted in your car by the famous “Welcome to Las Vegas” sign cruising Las Vegas Boulevard, it’s important to know a few basics before you begin your adventure. First, where are you going to stay?

Location, Location, Location:Where you stay sets the tone for your Las Vegas experience. Most visitors prefer to be in the heart of the action on the famous Strip - a four mile stretch of Las Vegas Boulevard spanning from the Mandalay Bay on the south end to the Stratosphere on the north end. These are our top hotel picks for the most central Strip base camp:

• Caesars Palace: With a world-class reputation for luxury and a sterling history in Las Vegas, this Roman-themed behemoth is an attraction in itself. Should you ever find a need to leave the sprawling grounds, it is at the true center of the Strip and walking distance from just about everything.
• Imperial Palace: Where Caesars Palace attracts those seeking luxury, the Asian-themed Imperial Palace is geared toward budget-conscious travelers who want to be in the thick of the action and don’t mind a little kitsch.
• Aria: The crown jewel in the new environmentally conscious CityCenter, the Aria’s curvilinear tower beckon guests to explore a huge variety of attractions within the center’s boundaries including an impressive sculpture garden, Crystals shopping experience and a pedestrian walkway to the equally luxurious Vdara Resort.

Inside Knowledge: Many hotels offer free shuttles to and from McCarran International Airport, so make sure to schedule a pick up/drop off time with the front desk.

Now that you’ve secured a fabulous hotel room in the middle of Las Vegas’ neon wonderland, it’s time to figure what to do with your time. We suggest an evening packed with an excellent meal, followed by a world-class show and topped off with drinking and dancing in one of Sin City’s incredible nightclubs. For the following day, check out our recommendations to some of the Strip’s best pools for recovering.

As an epicurean destination, Las Vegas offers a robust line-up of cuisine that ranges from quick bites to 16-course culinary revelations. Here are a few things to expect when choosing your perfect restaurant:

Steakhouses: You can’t escape them and why would want to? Steak houses and Las Vegas are a longstanding tradition and most major hotels house at least one. Early Vegas offers this brief overview of our favorite places to tuck into prime cuts of beef.
