Plus it’s within walking distance of GameWorks, which is the largest
arcade in Vegas and full of other great attractions for both kids
and adults. Excalibur – This is where you
will find the Tournament of Kings. They also have a large arcade and
it is connected to New York-New York via a walkway.
The Sahara – They have a roller coaster as
well, and downstairs follows a NASCAR theme for any race fans in the
family.
Stratosphere – If you or the kids crave an
adrenalin rush, this is the place for you. Check the height
requirements on the rides upstairs though.
MGM Grand – They have an awesome lion
exhibit, and it is the biggest hotel on the Strip. It is also very
close to GameWorks and the M&M Factory. If your kids are old enough
you may want to check out CSI: The Experience.
Mirage – Not typically a family
destination per se, however the Secret Garden and Dolphin habitat
are the closest thing to a zoo on the Strip, and everyone loves the
Volcano which goes off every half hour starting at dusk in front of
the Mirage.
Mandalay Bay – Mandalay’s Shark Reef is
amazing, with 5 types of sharks and many other sea creatures. It is
also the only accredited aquarium by the American Zoo and Aquarium
Association in Nevada.
Monte Carlo – They have a great pool for
kids (all the casinos have pools, but many are more adult in nature)
and their favorite fast food is located right next to the elevators.
It is also straight across from GameWorks and Showcase Mall.
Luxor – They have a great IMAX theatre,
and it is located right in between the Excalibur and Mandalay Bay –
both great destinations for the family.
If you and the wife want to get away for some
adult fun, many of the casinos, like the MGM Grand, offer child day
care. As with any city, never leave underage children unattended.
