Travel Packages in Las Vegas

Presentation of Las Vegas

Spending a vacation in Las Vegas is hugely popular because of the many travel deals that are on offer at any one time. One of America's foremost tourist destinations, the city has a reputation for entertainment and sheer fun that has an international standing. Originally called Las Vegas because of the grassy meadows that stood in the area, modern Las Vegas was founded in 1905 when land close to the railroad was first developed. Soon, the city became a center for gambling and entertainment, picking up when the state of Nevada first granted permission for a casino to be built in the city. Las Vegas grew rapidly throughout the 1960s and 1970s and remains one of the country's leading entertainment cities with many well-known hotels and casinos dotted along its famous strip. Flights to Las Vegas are popular from all corners of the US throughout the year, with flights from New York to Las Vegas and elsewhere, so why not inquire about one of our cheap vacation packages?

What is the weather in Las Vegas?

On average, only 27 days per year see any form of rain at all. In the winter, Las Vegas is cooler but not really cold. The average daytime high in December is 56.6 °F, for example. July is the city's hottest month of the year. As such, vacation package deals in Las Vegas are ideal at any time of the year.

Things to do in Las Vegas

No vacation in Las Vegas should be devoid of a trip to one of the city's 68 public parks. Not only are these excellent recreational areas to be enjoyed by all, but they mark a significant achievement of the city's authorities to keep the desert at bay. All inclusive vacations in Las Vegas, usually at one of the city's big hotels, may mean that you don't venture far from your accommodation but a stroll along the Las Vegas Strip should not be missed out on. An iconic sight that has featured in many Hollywood movies over the years, the Strip is full of flashing neon lights and sparkling advertising. Since the Strip can get busy with traffic in the evening, use the footbridges which have traversed it since they were first introduced in the 1990s. If retail therapy is something that appeals, then a trip to the Fashion Show Mall or the Grand Canal Shoppes should be included as a part of your itinerary. The LINQ Promenade is an open-air shopping district worth visiting, as well. Book your flight and hotel right now!
