Elara, A Hilton Grand Vacation Hotel-Centre Strip

Good to know Transfers are not included. If you require transfers, please speak to our experts about the Vegas VIP After Dark Tour.

Inside the park, the first major viewpoint is Dante’s View, perched more than a mile above the valley floor. From here, you’ll look out over salt flats, colourful badlands, and the remnants of an ancient lake, a perspective that makes the scale of the place sink in quickly. You’ll spend time at Furnace Creek Visitor Centre, learning how life survives in such an unforgiving environment, before heading to Harmony Borax Works. Pass the jagged salt formations of Devil’s Golf Course, a landscape so rough and sharply eroded that, as the saying goes, only the devil could play a round here. Next comes Badwater Basin, the lowest point in North America. You’ll have time to walk out onto the vast white salt flats and stand beneath the famous elevation sign marking 282 feet below sea level. It’s blindingly bright, surreal, and unlike anywhere else you’re likely to visit. Before heading back, you’ll follow Artists Drive, a scenic loop through hills painted with natural reds, greens, and purples, then stop at the historic Inn at Death Valley. The final stretch includes a gentle off-road drive through Twenty Mule Team Canyon. • Start time: 6am • Duration: full day  • Daily departures • Operates year round  • Group experience

The tour kicks off with a stop at the famous *Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas* sign. From there, you’ll cruise past a mix of classic and curious sights, including the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop, familiar to anyone who’s ever dipped into *Pawn Stars*. As you roll along Wedding Chapel Row, keep an eye out for couples mid-celebration. Next comes downtown Las Vegas, including the Arts District and Fremont Street, the city’s original heart. Once the first paved road in town, Fremont is now a four-block spectacle of light and sound, with a huge LED canopy overhead and zipliners cutting through the glow. It’s loud, unapologetic, and very Vegas, with plenty of stories attached. You’ll then stop at the Las Vegas Sphere, the city’s newest headline act. With its fully programmable LED exterior, it’s less a building and more a giant digital mood ring. To round things off, you’ll take a ride on the High Roller observation wheel at The LINQ. Rising 550 feet above the Strip, it offers expansive views over the city, from the Bellagio fountains to the long sweep of hotels stretching into the distance. • Start time: 6.30pm • Duration: 3½ hours • Daily departures  • Operates year round • Group experience

Raise a glass to your Las Vegas stay on this luxe Grand Canyon helicopter flight. You’ll be whisked to the airport by limo and set off on your flight over the desert. Dip down below the canyon’s West Rim and land on a plateau where a picnic lunch and glass of champers will be served. Then you’ll swoop down along The Strip as you return to the airport.

As dusk falls, the city comes to life. Take in dancing fountains and erupting volcanoes as you travel the Las Vegas Strip. The tour leads you past casinos, wedding chapels, and historic landmarks before you enter downtown. Take a brief guided walking tour, then immerse yourself in a spectacle of live entertainment, street artists, costumed entertainers, and the famous Fremont Street Light and Sound show.

The National Hockey League (NHL) is something of an institution across North America. Established in 1917, 32 teams compete against each other in ice hockey from October to June. Subject to availability, we can arrange tickets so that you can be rink side to witness the power and speed of the players as they attack and defend across the ice.

This speedy out-and-back flight is the perfect way to see the Grand Canyon if you’re short on time. You’ll take off from Boulder City airport, fly over Lake Mead and Hoover Dam on your way to the West Rim of the Grand Canyon and be back at your Vegas hotel all within four hours.

This is the most popular heli ride from Vegas and for good reason. Not only will you get to fly over the Lake Mead and the vast desert on the way to the Canyon, once you’ve reached the West Rim, you’ll descend over 900 metres and land on a plateau for some Champers and some refreshments before a return trip back over the Vegas Strip. Go at sunset for the ultimate aerial experience.

Before reaching the dam, you’ll pass through Boulder City, built in the early 1930s to house the thousands of workers who constructed Hoover Dam during the Great Depression. Unlike Las Vegas, it still has an old-school feel, and it plays a significant role in the story of how the dam came together under extraordinary conditions. At Hoover Dam Lodge, you’ll have time to look through historic photographs before boarding a shuttle to the Colorado River. From there, you’ll take a gentle 90-minute float through Black Canyon, starting at the base of the dam. From the water level, the scale of the structure becomes very real, with sheer concrete walls, dramatic canyon cliffs, and a rare view back towards the dam’s spillways. After the river trip, you’ll stop for a picnic lunch and a photo stop on the Arizona side of the dam, before heading up to the top. Standing more than 700 feet tall, Hoover Dam still supplies power and water across Nevada, Arizona, and California, and walking across it gives you time to take in both the engineering and the setting. You’ll then head inside for a guided tour of the Hoover Dam Power Plant. • Start time: 8am • Duration: 6½ hours • Daily departures • Operates year round • Group experience

You’re picked up from your Las Vegas hotel in the morning and set off across the Mojave Desert. The drive takes about 4 to 4.5 hours each way, broken up by scenic stops and commentary. You follow sections of historic Route 66, passing wide-open desert landscapes and traces of the old Santa Fe Railway while your guide shares context about the region’s history, wildlife and early travellers. As you climb onto the Coconino Plateau, the scenery shifts to cooler air, pine forest, and mountain views. Your first stop is Mather Point, one of the most expansive viewpoints on the South Rim. This is where the canyon's scale really lands, with sweeping views stretching across the gorge and the North Rim visible on clear days. From here, you’ll walk a short section of the Trail of Time to Yavapai Point, stopping at the Yavapai Geology Museum. Built right on the edge of the rim, the museum uses panoramic windows and clear displays to explain how the canyon was formed and to help you read the layers spread out before you. Next, you’ll head to Grand Canyon Village, the historic heart of the South Rim. This area developed in the early 1900s to support railway travellers and is now home to some of the park’s most characterful buildings. You’ll stop at Bright Angel Lodge, a stone-and-timber landmark sitting just feet from the canyon’s edge, with time for lunch and a wander. There’s a small history room, gift shop, and even a classic soda fountain and ice cream counter if that feels earned by this point. Before beginning the return drive to Las Vegas, you’ll stop at a local trading post showcasing art, jewellery, and crafts made by Native American artisans. Breakfast, snacks, a picnic lunch, bottled water, and all park entrance fees are included, so the day runs smoothly from start to finish. It’s a long drive, but a thoughtfully paced one, and you’ll return to Las Vegas feeling like you’ve genuinely spent time at the Grand Canyon. • Start time: 6am • Duration: 12½ hours • Daily departures • Operates year round • Group experience Good to know — Non-U.S. residents must either purchase a $250 America the Beautiful Pass (covering up to four adults) or pay a $100 per adult Grand Canyon entry fee before their Hummer tour.
