Jesus don't really do drugs anyway so definetly won't over there plenty of other things to do. Not great at poker but can play a bit so I think I will give it a try. My mates pretty good though!

Is it easy to pull without paying?. Hahahahaha lol :(

Wow no will probs limit myself to £100 a day to gamble

u can get a day return--air conditioned coach which stops at Hoover dam---a ranch for food--grand canyon--then back to Vegas

you just can't comprehend the size---I hate heights---u get idiots getting pics right on the edge---15 killed a year

A mile vertical drop


I liked the horse racing---so watched in Mandalay bay hotel--sports bar--leather seats---it was heaven

I have been twice to Las Vegas,and i will be going a third and fourth time,because there is so much to see and do,the first time i went i had the privledge of staying at the Bellagio,and recently i have syayed at the Flamingo,where i went to see Donny and Marie Osmond who will be still there when you go,if you go to the Grand Canyon dont take the coach trip,but take the little plane or helicopter (great views).Just visiting different hotels is a great day out,as each or maasive and have many shops.

One thing you must do
Please take a trip up the Eiffel tower and take in the breath taking views of the strip and Bellagio fountains,the lift attendent who goes by the name of Verne is an expert on the history of Las Vegas and has a fantastic memory of dates and events.

............and I hae been to Vegas 26 times.

MGM Grand is so huge, it's towards the bottom end of the strip close to the airport, with some real lions in the hotel lobby.

First time I went to Vegas it was like arriving in a different world, it looked crazy and it was crazy, and it was brilliant, going back for a third time end of this year.

Re Grand Canyon, totally amazing, but there is so many different excursions you can do, from a quick-fix helicopter trip which also flies over the Hoover Dam and Lake Mead, (from pick-up at your hotel and back, door to door it's about 4 to 5 hours). 

Other trips to the GC include a full day or overnight trip at a Western-style ranch if you like the cowboy life, horse riding, boat trip on the Colorado River, the skywalk.  So loads of different excursions from a quick-fix to a deluxe tour, so much to choose from, depends what you want to do.

As I said before it is really really hot in July, you get out of the swimming pool and 10 mins later you'll be sweating again, it is so hot.

Hope you have a great time, sure you'll love it.

I'd save your bucks and splash out on lunch in the Grand Canyon. You get picked up from your hotel, fly over the Hoover dam, land in the Canyon and have a few glasses of fizz with some grub. Then when night falls, fly down the strip all lit up, absolutely magnificent. Forget punting for a day, make that your treat. I did exactly that and there were 5 choppers all going in convoy that afternoon, they put on Flight Of The Valkyries on full blast in our headsets flying over the Canyon . You can't put a price on that sort of experience.

cheers guys! yep i'm quite prepared to lose in casino not fussed by that. i've had quite a good season on football betting with betfair so can't wait to go and spend some money on the best holiday ever.

I took a day trip to the hoover dam, and although it was ok, it was the one of the least memorable experiances of the holiday in Vegas.... I would bother if I were you to be honest..... much better things for 21 years old to get up to..... like going and firing some M16s at the local firing range......

I stayed in the Bellagio for a week about 4 years ago. On the way back to the hotel one evening, through the covered walk way, 2 young girls started talking to me. I thought they were just being friendly until they asked if they could come back to my room. I said I would ask the wife and get back to them. And I was 60 ffs. I then noticed they are everywhere.

When I told her she said 'Did you know rampant sex at your age could be fatal?' I said 'If they die, they die!'.

make sure you spend a day here its fkin superb http://www.vegas.com/nightlife/poolclubs/bare/

and also take a trip here http://thegunstorelasvegas.com/

For a laugh, the rides at the top of The Stratosphere are worth doing if you have a strong stomach, not for the faint hearted it must be said.

2nd this, especially the one that feels like you're driving off the side of the building, such a basic ride but one of the best ive been on

a lot of good tips on here, the hotel your staying is at the South end of the strip, worth going up to the middle of the strip to the Wynn and Encore - that is where a lot of footballers go, AND Prince Harry !!!!!  Seen Wayne Rooney there last year. 

Also The Venetian, Palazzo, Bellagio and Ceasars, all the big hotels around the middle of the strip def worth going to.  And Freemont St downtown, that was the original part of Las Vegas before all these monster hotels went up. But wouldn't wander off too far from Freemont St, bit of a rough area around there. 

The Stratosphere - between the main part of the strip and Freemont St - great rides at the top, "Insanity" & "X-Scream" & "Big Shot" (have a look on YouTube).  You can also jump off if you want (nearly 1,200 feet down !), it's a controlled cable leap, you are going down about 45mph and takes about 15 seconds before you hit the ground. 

The hotel your staying MGM Grand is one of the largest hotels in the world, over 5,000 bedrooms.  Infact about 15 of the 20 largest hotels in the world  are within a 2-mile radius within Las Vegas.

Grand Canyon is def worth seeing, whether it's a flight or on the ground, that is breathtaking. It is just spectacular by any standard.

So many things to do you'll need more than one trip.........

As someone already mentioned about the heat, it is suffocating in the summer months, and travelling up and down the strip, you won't walk far in that heat,  there is taxis and the monorail, but best way is The Deuce, it's a bus service which runs 24-hours on the strip.  They run all the time about every 10 mins and best thing is to get a day pass.

Would Vegas be a good spot for a couple to go to? Missus wanted to treat me to a trip for my 40th and i suggested Vegas but she was a bit dubious.She reckons its just a place people go to gamble and she ruin the holiday if she didnt enjoy it

I know plenty of non gamblers that have gone & all have had a brilliant time.

some great ideas for things to do thanks everyone. just wish i'd booked for october or when its warmer

I went about 4 years ago with my wife. I don't gamble on cards, slots or roulette so I put aside $100 for just one bet. After all it was Las Vegas. I know nothing about roulette so I had $40 on a colour and $20 3 times on my kids birth dates. Just the one spin. One of the numbers came up and I landed nearly $700. I'm a Las Vegas winner. Drew the money from the window and never had another bet. Gave most to my wife for shopping and a couple of shows. Went to the Cirque de Soliel. Brilliant. Stayed at the Bellagio. I sat down in one of the comfy armchairs in the hotal waiting for the wife to wander around. When she finished we went upstairs. Got changed to go out then noticed my wallet was missing. Went downstairs and there it was jammed in the side of the armchair. Lucky boy.
