Top Free Attractions And Activities In Las Vegas

Many people assume that Las Vegas is a costly holiday destination. After all, with all the casinos, hotels, shows, and nightlife opportunities, it seems visitors are bound to continually spend money. In reality, Las Vegas is one off the most opportune destinations in which to enjoy a budget holiday - the reason being that, in an effort to attract as many customers as possible, Las Vegas hotels continually invest in attractions and activities that won't cost visitors a thing. The result is a vast array of free entertainment options for visitors of all ages, and the opportunity to enjoy a fulfilling holiday on a budget.

When it comes to free activities and attractions in Las Vegas, your options are many - but a handful of these attractions simply shouldn't be missed. One of the most popular happens to be the fountain show at the Bellagio - a spectacular outdoor show created from fountains, lights and music. About every half an hour, spectators gather along the quarter mile-long lake in front of the Bellagio to watch the fountains dance to music and shoot water up to 240 feet into the air. Now an iconic Las Vegas attraction - and one that can be enjoyed for free - the fountain show is not to be missed during any trip to the city.

Another popular hotel front show is the volcano at the Mirage. Erupting since 1989, this 54-foot volcano attraction never fails to amaze spectators with fire, smoke, and 'lava' running down its sides. While at the Mirage, you should also stop by the hotel lobby where you can marvel at a 20, 000-gallon saltwater aquarium filled with tropical fish and sharks, swimming among beautiful coral reef.

Moving down the Las Vegas Strip, stop by Treasure Island to experience the "Sirens of TI" hotel front show. Described by the hotel as a "modern musical-meets-action-movie spectacular", the free performance features music, dancing, acrobatics, swordplay, pyrotechnics and even a full size ship sinking.

If you love animals, you won't want to miss the Lion Habitat at the MGM Grand - another free attraction, and one that's perfect for Vegas-goers of all ages. Visitors can see lions lounging, playing, and interacting with their handlers in a 5, 000 square foot glass habitat with a simulated jungle and waterfall. Best of all, guests can have their picture taken with lion cubs.

Finally, why not take advantage of the countless free gaming lessons offered by many of the hotels? From poker and blackjack to craps and roulette, most of the major hotels in Las Vegas will offer free lessons to guests over 21 years of age. Enquire with hotels individually to find out about lessons and designated times.

Will all this and more to enjoy for free, Sin City has never been so easy to experience on a budget. Pair free holiday activities such as these with reservations at affordable Las Vegas hotels, and you're sure to come away from your holiday without spending a fortune.
