Experience the Unexpected: Las Vegas Beyond the Casinos

Published by Andre Le on Jul 12

We all know Las Vegas as the city that never sleeps.

But while the Vegas Strip is the go-to for regular tourists, Las Vegas has much more to offer for those looking for more than just spending time at the casinos. 

From the Grand Canyon to visiting the Titanic? Let’s see what else you can visit in Las Vegas beyond casinos. 

What to Do in Las Vegas Besides the Casinos

1. Visiting the Grand Canyon

Of course, the #1 thing you should do instead of spending time in casinos is visit the Grand Canyon. Whether you prefer a more modest experience or you want to take a literal helicopter, visiting the Grand Canyon is a must for any tourist looking to avoid casino games.

The Grand Canyon is truly a geological masterpiece, and everyone who has the chance should visit it. 

2. The Titanic Artifact Exhibition

Ok, you can’t visit the actual Titanic in Las Vegas, but you can see the next best thing—A fully dedicated exhibition showcasing different artifacts directly from the wreckage. 

The exhibition is perfect for movie enthusiasts and history fans, so if you’re either, consider visiting. 

3. Magic Shows

Las Vegas is home to the world’s most famous magicians. You’re likely most familiar with Penn and Teller, but other magicians are known to put on amazing, enjoyable shows that will leave you wondering, ‘How’d they do that!’. Mat Franco is another popular option.

Generally, the shows aren’t that pricey, but as long as you’re not paying over $100 USD per person, they are 100% worth it! Besides, at least you’ll spend that money on non-casino gaming activities instead of losing it all at the casino!

4. The Hoover Dam

If you’re willing to invest a day and visit one of the greatest architectural marvels of the United States, you can take a tour of the renowned Hoover Dam. 

While many options and services can provide the tour, they follow the same agenda. 

You meet at a meeting point, and a tour bus with a guide picks you up. The bus takes you to the dam and gives you a short tour. With most tours, you can explore the area for yourself, and the whole thing should take about 6 hours!

5. The Bellagio Botanical Garden

This one is cutting it close with the whole non-casino gaming agenda we’re going for, but trust us, as one of the best unique experiences, it’s well worth it. 

Even though Bellagio is known for being one of the most extravagant casinos and hotels in Las Vegas, it also has some other attractions that help attract customers. 

However, the Bellagio Botanical Garden is unique if you look past the tempting casinos. It’s filled with beautiful plants and extravagant displays—a definite must-see.

Conclusion

That’s it for our top places to go if you don’t want to spend time in casinos in Las Vegas. We hope you found our suggestions helpful and that you found an adventure that is perfect for you.

Enjoy magical performances, explore the architectural marvel of the Hoover Dam, and wander through the beautiful Bellagio Botanical Garden. Discover a different side of Las Vegas!
