Colorado River
The Colorado River is a spectacular sight to see, meandering for 1,447 miles (2,330 kilometers) with red rocks and canyons framing it on both sides, leading up to the Hoover Dam. The Colorado River is one of the major water sources for California and Nevada, and, not surprisingly, it's a major recreational destination—activities on the river include hiking, biking, rafting, and boating.
The Basics
Many travelers to Las Vegas to experience the Mighty Colorado River by visiting or canoeing the Black Canyon, so-called because of the black volcanic rocks found in the area. The canyons are majestic, red land formations that lead from Colorado toward the Hoover Dam in Nevada. Guided boating and canoeing tours take visitors down the Colorado River as it passes through the Black Canyon. At James M. Robb Colorado River State Park, hiking, rafting, fishing, rock climbing, and swimming are all available.

How to Get There
There are numerous access points to the Colorado River as it flows through Nevada, but most travelers visit on a guided adventure tour that includes return transportation from Las Vegas.
When to Get There
While there isn’t really a bad time to visit the Colorado River, commercial rafting trips—particularly those through the Grand Canyon—are generally offered from April to October. Depending on where you are along the river, temperatures in June, July, and August can soar above 100°F (38°C).

Downtown Las Vegas
Downtown Las Vegas thrived as the city’s gambling district until the 1980s when new resorts and casinos pulled the crowds away from the area toward the Strip, the city’s main thoroughfare today. After a period of neglect, Downtown has seen revitalization over the past few years, transforming it into a Las Vegas cultural and entertainment hub in its own right.
The Basics
Downtown’s famed Fremont Street is still home to historic casinos such as the Golden Nugget and El Cortez, as well as the Fremont Street Experience, a multisensory light and sound show using more than two million lights and the world’s largest audio-video system. Downtown’s Arts District is home to several art galleries, studios, and stores, and there are also museums scattered around the neighborhood, including the Natural History Museum, Mob Museum, and Neon Museum.
Downtown Las Vegas is best explored on foot, the better to soak up the sights and sounds of the historic district. Guided walking tours introduce visitors to the history and culture of the area, as well as its quirky side. Food tours include tasting stops at a handful of notable restaurants in addition to neighborhood exploration. Alternatively, pick up a bicycle from the bike share in front of Container Park and explore independently.
Things to Know Before You Go
- Fans of mid-century modern-style architecture flock to downtown Las Vegas to soak up the “classic Vegas” era feeling.
- Fremont Street’s light shows take place on the hour every hour from early evening through early morning.
- Casinos in downtown Las Vegas are open 24/7.
How to Get There
Downtown Las Vegas is located just north of the Las Vegas Strip, bordered by I-15 on the west, Washington Avenue on the north, Maryland Parkway on the east, and Sahara Avenue on the south. Cars can reach it via Interstate 15 and Route 95. The Deuce bus service runs from Mandalay Bay on the Strip to Fremont Street, stopping at resorts along the way.
When to Get There
Fremont Street comes alive with light shows and live entertainment every night of the week, but especially so on Friday and Saturday. There’s plenty to see and do during the day (galleries, museums, and stores) but nighttime, when the neon lights are lit, is the busiest.
The Neon Museum
Las Vegas is well-known for its neon signage, but in the 1990s, LED and LCD screens began replacing neon. In response, local preservationists saved neon signs in what was called the Neon Boneyard. Now, these symbols of the city’s heydey are honored at the Neon Museum, with more than 150 signs. Just north of downtown, the museum’s visitor’s center is in the renovated La Concha Motel lobby, a famed seashell-shaped, mid-century modern building.

Black Canyon
Existing in marked contrast to the colorful vistas of the neighboring Grand Canyon, the dark volcanic walls of the aptly named Black Canyon offer access to the Colorado River, Hoover Dam, and the El Dorado and Black Mountains that serve as its natural borders.

Bryce Canyon National Park
Bryce Canyon National Park showcases the red rock canyons and rugged horizon-stretching vistas that make Utah famous. With a variety of otherworldly geological formations, Bryce Canyon is an active traveler's playground, crammed full of pinnacles, steeples, spires, and hoodoos, which are thin eroded rock formations that reveal sedimentary layers of red, orange, and white.
The Basics
Outdoor enthusiasts from all over the world come to Bryce Canyon—one of Utah's most popular natural attractions—for hiking, camping, and stargazing beneath its dark night skies. Many visitors stop here as part of a multi-day tour of the region's national and state parks, including Grand Canyon National Park, Zion National Park, Monument Valley, Canyonlands National Park, and Capitol Reef National Park. Those with limited time can see the park's highlights on a day trip from Las Vegas, Ogden, or Salt Lake City.
Things to Know Before You Go

- Wear comfortable shoes suitable for walking over uneven ground.
- The national park provides little shade, so bring sunscreen, a hat, and plenty of drinking water.
- Due to the distance involved, day trips from Las Vegas can last upwards of 12 hours.
How to Get to Bryce Canyon National Park
The closest major airports to Bryce Canyon are in Las Vegas and Salt Lake City—both are about 270 miles (435 km) from the park entrance. No public transportation runs to the park, so the easiest way to visit, especially if you don’t want to rent a car, is to join a guided tour.
When to Get There
Bryce Canyon National Park is open 24 hours a day throughout the year, though some park roads may close temporarily during and after winter snow storms. While brief afternoon showers are common in summer, daytime temperatures range from the high 70s F to low 80s F, making it a pleasant time to visit. Temperatures often fall below freezing at night between October and May due to the park's high elevation.
Points of Interest in Bryce Canyon
Perhaps the best view of the spectacular hoodoo-filled Bryce Amphitheater is from Inspiration Point; from there, head south up a small rise on the Rim Trail for an even better vantage point. To fully appreciate the canyon, you also need to get down in it. From Sunset Point, combine Navajo Loop with Queen's Garden Trail, a hike that will take you past Thor's Hammer, the steep rock formations of Wall Street, and the impressive Queen Victoria, a hoodoo that resembles royalty.

Calico Hills
When it’s time to escape the neon and hustle of the jam-packed Las Vegas strip, the Calico Hills are the perfect location for swapping the smoke-filled gaming room parlors for a breath of fresh mountain air. Set 30 minutes west of downtown Las Vegas, the Calico Hills offer hiking and rock climbing through a dreamy sandstone landscape, where red-hued rock piles form a network of spires and summits for visitors to explore. Located inside of Red Rock Canyon, the Calico Hills are best known for the popular Calico Hills Trail, which begins just after the Visitor Center and runs 3.2 miles to Sandstone Quarry along the base of the hills. For many visitors the thrill of the hike is scrambling up on the rocks, choosing well worn side trails to navigate the boulders and get views of the Las Vegas desert. At an elevation near 4,000 feet the air is refreshingly cool, though summer temperatures can still be perilous if hiking or climbing midday. The trail is broken into multiple sections and has numerous different parking areas, making it easily accessible for hikers in search of a shorter stroll. For outdoor enthusiasts in search of a challenge, the side trails and scrambles leading up to the summits can consume an entire day, and create a gorgeous natural playground for escaping the Sin City lights.
Practical Info
While the Calico Hills Trail is easily accessible, sections of rock scrambling can be steep in places and require a good degree of fitness. Always bring water when hiking in summer and avoid the peak of the day, and watch out for patches of ice on the rocks if scrambling the summits in winter.

Area 51
Military bases aren't always tourist attractions, but the so-called Area 51 Air Force facility in Nevada is – mostly because it's top secret.
Historically, the facility known commonly (though not officially) as Area 51 was involved with building and testing experimental and classified aircraft and weapons. Today, what goes on at Area 51 is also classified, but the site is at the epicenter of lots of conspiracy theories.
Many believe that UFOs and the aliens piloting them have been captured by the government and brought to Area 51 for research. This includes items thought to have been found in Roswell, New Mexico. Whatever you believe, an entire tourist industry focused on extraterrestrial life has grown up in the area, including the small town of Rachel, nearest the site.
Practical Info
While you obviously can't get onto Area 51 itself, you can visit the Extraterrestrial Highway and the UFO-themed town of Rachel, and there are day tours that cover the area from Las Vegas.
