Hoover Dam. The $35 tour, it's worth the extra money.
Grand Canyon. It's a 5 hour drive but totally worth it if you have never been there.
The buffet at the Bellagio. Wow.
Check out Freemont street. It's more fun than then strip in my opinion.
While you are there, see the chunk of gold in the back of the Golden Nugget.

I recently went for the first time. I got some tips from the locals. Go to the 'FIREFLY' restaurant behind the strip. That's where the locals hang out after hours.
Also, if you're going to gamble....don't play any slots. Slots are your lowest odds. Go play 'BlackJack'. Don't be afraid to ask for help from the dealers....they'll actually tell you what to do (according to the book). If you decide to go against the advise, then you're GAMBLING. Have fun!
Oh, and don't eat at the buffets...you'll be let down. And please don't go to the 'I love this bar by the country singer'. It totally blows.

Well I finally made it back after about 16 plane delays and missed flights (thanks American).
I ended up having a good time, didnt venture to the Spearmint Rhino though Went to the Grand Canyon to find out if was a ripoff if you wanted just a bus tour, went to the Hoover Dam(that place was dam amazing). Overall it was a fun trip, got to check out almost all of the casinos, came home with more money than I took. And kjohnson, thanks for the tips. I never play slots, only blackjack.
