Melody Sweets

Naughty and nice this holiday season Melody Sweets has evolved from the alpha burlesque queen of Absinthe to a shimmering chanteuse who makes regular appearances at Myron’s Cabaret Jazz inside The Smith Center for the Performing Arts. Sweets touched base with Las Vegas Magazine’s Matt Kelemen before her upcoming production The Sweets’ Spot Holiday Spectacular on Dec. 19 at the center to talk with her about the current turning point in her career.

You’re two months removed from Absinthe. Do you miss being the Green Goddess?

My last day was Oct. 22, and although I miss my friends, I have really been enjoying my time.

able to see a new Las Vegas that I’ve never been able to see before.

It’s wonderful. I get to go to all the shows and hang out with people I wouldn’t ordinarily get to hang out with. It’s been great.

More flexibility, more time to do other things you want to do.

For the past seven years I’ve been working five nights a week, which was amazing, of course. I’m now

You’ve become a regular performer at The Smith Center.

How did that come about?

I had met Myron Martin somewhere downtown for the

22 12.17.17 LasVegasMagazine.com

EntSpeaks series. It was Andy Walmsley’s sort of TED Talks thing. So I went in and Myron was talking, and I just found him so endearing. He’s so adorable. I just started talking to him and realized Smith Center, and Las Vegas in general, doesn’t really have much authentic, glamorous, naughty burlesque. I let him know I keep it classy-ish (laughs), and he let me do it. It was wonderful, and I guess he liked it. This show coming up is my fifth show there, and every single one has sold out so far.

How was The Sweets’ Spot— Spooktacular?

Every show I’ve done there, I’ve been able to bring in new artists and new music. The Spooktacular one, I think, so far has been my favorite. I love doing campy, fun

shows to make people smile and at the same time push the limits.

For the first time in Smith Center history we had a “boylesque” performer. Things like that, being able to introduce that to the audience, has been great.

My favorite part is watching the audiences’ faces. (Laughs) Are you adding an element to Holiday Spectacular that hasn’t been seen before?

Oh, yeah. Every single show I do, I add something new and different.

This one is actually a big one. I’m working with Santa Fe and the Fat City Horns, and they’re just a wonderful big band. Really strong, huge horn section. Oh, I can’t wait! It’s going to feel so powerful and amazing to be up onstage with them.

Meals in Minutes

Whether you’re a local or a tourist, time can sometimes be of the essence. Topgolf Las Vegas at MGM Grand understands this, and now offers a Power Lunch Menu designed to have its customers in and out within 45 minutes. From 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Monday through Friday, savor the orecchiette Bolognese with whipped ricotta, sourdough grilled cheese, crispy sea bass sandwich, Kalbi short rib bowl with a slow-cooked egg, or heritage turkey burger with grilled mushrooms. For more information, call 702.933.8458.

The Places You’ll Go!

Transportation mobile app Lyft has enjoyed much success in Las Vegas, and to celebrate its two-year anniversary here, the company presented its “Lyftie Awards” to the most-visited spots in the city. According to Lyft’s ride statistics, “Most Visited Event Space” goes to the Fremont Street Experience; The “Most Visited Bar” is Topgolf Las Vegas; the “Most Visited University” is UNLV; and the “Most Visited Restaurant” is In-N-Out Burger. And with Nevada’s legalization of marijuana, the award for “Trending Destination” goes to the Reef Dispensary. Congratulations to all the winners!

Michael Jackson, celebrated in such Strip shows as Michael Jackson ONE and MJ Live, spent a lot of time in Las Vegas in the later part of his life. At one point, Jackson had plans to have a 50-foot-tall robot replica of himself walking the desert to promote a 2005 comeback. It never happened.

Las Vegas has an amazing amount of neon lighting—approximately 15,000 miles of neon tubing on the Strip and downtown.

The city gets a sizable number of gamblers from Asia every year, and because the number 4 is considered bad luck in some Asian cultures, some hotels have no floors that start with that number.

Nevada isn’t called the “Silver State” for nothing. Not only is it No. 1 in silver production in the continental United States, it ranks No. 4 in the entire world—behind Greenland, Finland and Sweden.

Wrap It Up

Gifts from food to fashion If you’re looking for a little retail therapy— and the chance to knock a few gifts off your list—we have a few fun suggestions.

Focus on your food fans with one of Honolulu Cookie Company’s (The Grand Canal Shoppes at The Venetian and The Palazzo, The Linq Promenade) holiday collections in special tins. The dark chocolate peppermint is delicious—and yes, we’ve sampled extensively! Garrett Popcorn Company (Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood Resort) also has tins and flavors for the holidays, including the Hot Chocolate CaramelCrisp.

Cookbooks are great gifts for the home chef and come in all styles here, showcasing both restaurants and celebrity chefs.

Get Virgil’s Road Trip Cookbook at Virgil’s Real Barbecue and the Sprinkles Baking Book at Sprinkles (both at The Linq Promenade) or Masaharu Morimoto’s Mastering the Art of Japanese Home Cooking (Grand & Company at MGM Grand).

Customize a necklace or earrings at Kendra Scott or pick up a lovely bracelet at Alex & Ani. At Saks Fifth Avenue, find a Rebecca Minkoff velvet Leo clutch or a darling Edie Parker clutch, which sports a cherry on top. For sheer decadence, Saks Fifth Avenue, Neiman Marcus and Nordstrom (all at Fashion Show) offer personal shoppers, so while you are chilling out, those stockings will still get filled. –Nina King

Musical Memories If you ever attended a performance of the musical Jersey Boys, no doubt you remember the infectious combination of classic hits and impeccable choreography. And if you were like us, you also got up out of your seat and danced and sang along. Get ready to experience that feeling all over again at Under the Streetlamp, a quartet composed of four former members of Jersey Boys who bring to life timeless hits ranging all the way back to the ’40s including, yes, those of Frankie Valli & the Four Seasons.

Eric Gutman, Brandon Wardell, Christopher Kale Jones and Shonn Wiley will give you goosebumps as they remind you of what music used to be: Innocent and fun. Each man get his own time in the spotlight as Under the Streetlamp offers hit after hit: “Rock and Roll is Here to Stay,” “Blue Moon,” “Save the Last Dance For Me,” “I’m a Believer,” “Working My Way Back to You,” “Old Time Rock & Roll.” and many more.

Walter White

Fun and Filthy Watching a performer push his strength to the limit is both a suspenseful and beautiful act.

Absinthe, a variety show with touches of vaudeville, burlesque and circus acts, delivers such spectacle again and again.

The host, The Gazillionaire, and his assistant deliver bits of R- and sometimes X-rated comedy.

Tap-dancing twins Sean and John Scott all shine, but the feats of strength will grab a whole other side of your attention. Acrobat Ruslan Khusinov stacks chair upon chair, balancing in precarious

positions until he adds a final eighth chair and then looks down from a handstand at the top.

New to the cast are jugglers Water on Mars, and the trio will have you in awe as they launch and snatch balls, rings, fluorescent clubs, open water bottles and streams of toilet paper while sprinting on- and offstage and around the tent floor.

Absinthe is truly intoxicating, easily mixing hilarious entertainment with acrobatic acts performed to perfection. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff

It’s arguably one of the greatest television shows of this or any generation: Breaking Bad, all about the consequences of every decision we make, good or—in the show’s case— bad. But you’ll have made the right decision if you opt for the Walter White at Morels French Steakhouse & Bistro at The Palazzo. Named after the show’s central character, this cocktail combines Empress Gin, lemon, egg white, ultrarefined sugar, brandies cherry and lime. And just like Walt’s signature “product” on the show, it’s blue!

Hocus Pocus Focus He’s won 21 Emmy awards, 11 Guinness World Records and a “Living Legend” designation from the U.S. Library of Congress. Not yet impressed? Then seeing the magic of David Copperfield for yourself should do it.

Copperfield covers the magical waterfront, from up-close hocus-pocus to epic-scale illusions, staged with a showman’s theatrical flourish. Expect mind-reading and enjoy Copperfield’s embrace of technology as he

Adrenaline Rush A prime locale for a high-energy good time, Adventuredome—the super-charged playground at Circus Circus—is home to an action-packed lineup of gravity-challenging rides, plus a rock-climbing wall, clown shows, miniature golf, mini-bowling, interactive theater shows and carnival/arcade games.

Coaster aficionados can’t pass up the marquee attractions. Get your adrenaline jacked up on the Canyon Blaster—advertised as “the world’s only indoor, double-loop, double-corkscrew roller coaster.” After catching your breath, give your heart another jumpstart on El Loco, a twisty nerve-rattler that shoots 90 feet up, then plummets for a 1.5-vertical-G drop.

Other thrilling rides include the Sling Shot, which rockets you up to its tower with 4 G’s worth of acceleration. For the smaller members of your contingent, plop ’em on the Frog Hopper for some bouncy fun.

Sly Guy Illusionist Mac King is nearly as practiced at the art of sly innuendo that goes over adolescent heads as he is at sleight-of-hand deception.

King expertly walks the line of risqué humor without crossing it, keeping more mature audience members laughing while the younger set focuses on trying to figure out how that rope he keeps snipping with scissors keeps reconstituting itself. It might be the goldfish he pulls from his mouth or the guinea pig that plays a central role in one of his tricks that helps create the impression that his magic is kid-friendly. But he

cautions that his show at Harrah’s is not specifically designed that way.

Save for one trick that causes kids of all ages to jump out of their seats, King is alone onstage, performing in front of a background that matches his suit, unless he invites people to join him as temporary assistants. And as King points out, his audience interaction makes every Harrah’s show different and makes him a better entertainer. –Matt Kelemen Harrah’s, 1 & 3 p.m. Tues.-Sat., $36.95$46.95 plus tax and fee. 702.777.2782

Moonlit Magic The Nutcracker ballet has become as much a part of the holiday season as Santa Claus, Christmas trees and mistletoe. So it’s fitting that the Nevada Ballet Theater is bringing back this glorious musical tradition to The Smith Center for the Performing Arts.

In the ballet, choreographed by James Canfield, Tchaikovsky’s beloved score rings out in the majestic theater. The magical dancing, costumes and performances tell the story of young Clara and her Nutcracker Prince, the toy that comes

“alive” and shares wondrous moments with her. And who could forget the waltzing flowers, nimble fairies, dancing mice, Mouse King and other characters who have become part of our seasonal culture?

A variety of tremendous scenic effects like moonlit snow make this production a spectacular experience.

It also features a full orchestra, thus making The Nutcracker a musical, visual and entertaining experience as it all comes together in this classic ballet and one of the highlights in Las Vegas. –Penny Levin

True to Form With Purple Reign: The Prince Tribute Show, audiences are amazed at how much the show feels like they are watching “The Artist” himself.

Edward Thompson Eating, and eating well

Date night is a valued tradition in Edward Thompson’s house.

Every Friday night, Thompson and his wife go out for dinner in Las Vegas, and the restaurant they pick has to meet a pair of key criteria: 1. They can’t have tried it before, and 2. It has to serve food that photographs well.

In his spare time, Thompson is a local food Instagrammer, and those Friday night dates aren’t just a chance to catch up after a week of work with his wife of three years. They’re scouting trips and photo sessions for the 32-year-old’s Instagram account, @vegasfoodbaron.

“My wife hates it because she says we never go back to the same restaurant twice,” laughs Thompson. But, hey, you know what they say about variety and spice.

The Detroit native traces his love of food back to Michigan, where he was raised by a single mother who cooked restaurantcaliber meals at home. “We never really went out to eat,” recalls Thompson, but his mom made sophisticated dishes like salmon croquettes in her home kitchen. “I got my love of food from her.”

Today, it’s Thompson who does the cooking at home—barbecue and kalua pork and a special rosemary fried chicken at Christmas time, when the whole family races to snag a piece of grandma’s Million Dollar pie.

For Thompson, food is elemental and universal, a highlight of travels abroad (where he claims to have eaten the world’s best pizza in Naples, Italy), something everyone shares in common and a way to get to know home.

His best advice for visitors passing through Las Vegas is to venture off Strip and explore some of the locals’ joints pictured in his feed, places like Settebello pizzeria and Other Mama, where what you see in his photos is what you’ll get on your plate.

“I like to capture the food as it is,” he says. –Sarah Feldberg

Rosemary Pomegranate Mule

High on Rye flight

All the Good Things

Swanky lounge offers seasonal cocktails and impressive pours In a city filled with fine places to wine and to dine, a hidden gem is all the more special—and Cornerstone at the Gold Coast is one such special place. The steakhouse and lounge is tucked into a corner off the casino floor. Finding it is like coming across a speakeasy, and that vibe thrives once through its doors. The deep, rich color palette and ornate furnishings send guests back to the Prohibition era, and there’s a cocktail menu to match.

One prime example is the Old Fashioned—a classic cocktail, but here, Old Forester bourbon is barrel aged for 40 days with dried cherries, cinnamon, vanilla bean and orange peel. And with the holidays in full swing, Cornerstone will

36 12.17.17 LasVegasMagazine.com

release its holiday cocktail menu Dec. 21, with some recipes to help get sippers into the spirit.

The Rosemary Pomegranate Mule mixes pomegranate juice, Pama pomegranate liqueur and pomegranate seeds with Stoli vodka and Fever Tree ginger beer, all served in a classic copper mule mug. To warm things up, try the Pumpkin Spiced Latte with vanilla vodka and Baileys pumpkin spice liqueur, topped off with whipped cream and hazelnut sprinkles. For a twist on a classic sangria, Cornerstone created the Winter Bourbon Sangria. The mixture of Malbec wine, Maker’s Mark bourbon, apple cider, blackberry liqueur and soda water is infused with winter fruits that include apple, orange and pear slices.

It’s not just the crafted cocktails that make Cornerstone a hidden gem, though—it’s the whiskey, bourbon and scotch selections, too.

A good place to start would be the whiskey and Scotch flights, where guests can try three different labels, many for under $25. A popular flight is the High on Rye that includes Templeton, Russell’s Reserve and Michter’s Single Barrel. Besides the flights, guests can indulge in 2-ounce pours of Pappy Van Winkle’s Old Rip Van Winkle 10-Year for $18 and 12-Year for $22.

There’s also an Eagle Rare 10-Year Single Barrel 2-ounce pour for just $12. –Kiko Miyasato Gold Coast, lounge hours, 4-10 p.m. Sun.Thurs., 4-11 p.m. Fri.-Sat. 702.367.7111

Prosciutto pizza

Robert Irvine is the new face of the Tropicana—literally. For nearly a year, the celebrity chef’s visage and bulging biceps have been plastered on the outside walls of the resort announcing his Las Vegas restaurant, Robert Irvine’s Public House. And now it’s here, a large, sprawling area with hardwood floors and a lacquered look that has its own corner of the hotel.

Although the clientele will be mostly tourismbased, Irvine’s team has stressed they want to reach out to locals and military members (in keeping with Irvine’s commitment to our armed forces).

Speaking of the military, poutine, from the appetizer section, is big enough to feed an army.

This Public House riff on the Quebecois dish replaces French fries with tater tots, giving it a playful feel. Pulled pork is laced throughout thick, dark shitake mushroom and onion gravy.

Dollops of peppered goat cheese give the whole thing some kick.

You’ll want to include one of Irvine’s pizzas (made with wheat and quickly cooked) in your Public House journey, particularly prosciutto, a sweet, savory, salty, acidic, and peppery interplay of the Italian cured meat with fig jam, goat cheese, arugula, lemon and Parmesan.

Standout entrées include two of Irvine’s signature dishes. The F & K Fondue Burger features a thick Black Angus patty topped with mushrooms, onion, bacon, lettuce and tomato.

It rests on a thick brioche bun, which is necessary to soak up the gooey Camembert fondue that accompanies the burger. Pour the fondue directly on top of the sandwich and then dig

Public House poutine

in with f & k (fork and knife.) Fish and chips is presented with a mammoth beer-battered wild Alaskan cod sitting atop french fries that are doused in malted curry aioli, green onion, bacon and feta. Cut into the fish and scoop it up with the fries for a complete bite of deliciousness.

Two areas where Public House shines are dessert and drinks. The cocktail menu, courtesy of Francesco Lafranconi of Southern Glazer’s Wine & Spirits, shows a great deal of thought. The Drink Healthy section features Chef Irvine’s organic Boardroom Spirits. So far the most popular item in that area has been the watermelon mint cooler, which uses Boardroom ginger vodka, lime juice, Wilks & Wilson Millicent’s Lime Mint Simple and fresh

watermelon. It’s an adult cool-me-off and a fun way to beat the heat. Signature cocktails have a number of top-notch options. The limey bastard has all types of goodness in its combination of Bacardi pineapple rum, clement mohina coconut, Lustau Manzanilla sherry, fresh lime, and blue curaçao.

Mason jar apple pie is a real winner with the pie presented in the jar, just barely hanging onto the crust. Vanilla ice cream would complete most American versions of the sweet, but the addition of five-year aged Grafton English cheddar makes the British play even better than ours.

Local or tourist, everyone is bound to find something to their liking at this Public House.

The Dude

Tiffany Turrietta

Blue Ribbon bartender enjoys the fun atmosphere It’s plain and simple: “Have a good laugh, a fun talk, some great drinks, eat some great food and just hang out,” says bartender Tiffany Turrietta.

Turrietta is talking about the guest experience at Blue Ribbon Fried Chicken at the Grand Bazaar Shops at Bally’s. Famous on both coasts of the U.S. for its fried chicken, Blue Ribbon opened its first fast-casual eatery on the Las Vegas Strip, and also introduced a bar offering with its Bazaar Shops location—exclusively selling its signature boozy milkshakes. And manning the bar is Turrietta, who joined Blue Ribbon this past July.

Before Blue Ribbon, she’d been working as a prior authorization specialist in a local dermatologist’s office. “One day, I just decided I wanted something more fun; I wanted to work at a job where I could talk to people who are

here to have fun,” says the Las Vegas native. So she took the on-and-off bartending experience she’d gained over the past seven years, working at various bars and restaurants around the city, and on the advice of a friend who worked at Blue Ribbon already she applied for the open bartender position.

“The crowds at the Grand Bazaar Shops are lively and fun and you meet such a diverse group of people,” Turrietta says. “I’ve had all different types of people come up to my bar—and they’re all here to have a good time and party.”

While she has a good time bartending, too, when she wants to party with her friends she’ll sometimes head to the Fremont East District in downtown. “Growing up here I’ve watched the changes going on down there and I love the new vibe,” she says. –Kiko Miyasato

Blue Ribbon pays homage to the late-’90s comedy The Big Lebowksi with a recently introduced boozy milkshake named The Dude (in reference to Jeff Bridges’ character in the movie). While the movie will certainly have you laughing out loud, the milkshake is seriously delicious. (This writer, seriously, couldn’t put it down, LOL!) The Dude is made with Stoli Vanil vodka, coffee liqueur and Blue Ribbon’s special ice cream mix and is topped with Oreo cookie crumbles and whipped cream. Who needs a white Russian when you’ve got this? –KM

A Holiday Tradition As one of the biggest holiday songs to date, Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas is You” has become a holiday enterprise, spawning a children’s book, an animated movie (just released in November) and a concert series all of the same name.

Those who have seen Carey’s previous #1 to Infinity residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace will notice the All I Want for

Christmas Is You spectacle is much different. Carey manages to perfectly intertwine songs from her two holiday albums, Merry Christmas and Merry Christmas II You—which feature her versions of holiday classics such as “Silent Night,” “Joy to the World” and “O Holy Night,” with “All I Want For Christmas Is You” as the finale. Throughout the festive show, Carey throws in a few of the hits that

made her a worldwide superstar, such as “Emotions” and “We Belong Together.” Fans can also expect Carey’s stunning wardrobe changes, a five-piece band, singers, dancers, carolers, aerial acrobats, a gospel choir and a surprising appearance from Santa Claus.

With her incredible vocals coupled with the festive decor, it’s easy to see why this show is a holiday tradition for fans. –Chanelle Hayes

The trio run through some of their biggest hits including the mellow “It’s So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday” and the beautiful dedication to mothers, “A Song for Mama,” in addition to “On Bended Knee” and “Water Runs Dry” from the Grammy Award-winning album II.

Las Vegas is home to plenty of radiosponsored festivals, and the city’s status as an international tourist hub makes it the perfect host for outlets that cater to a diverse demographic.

So Persian-language online music service RadioJavan should be right at home hosting a few of its most Sasy popular acts at the House of Blues.

Hosted by RadioJavan’s DeeJay AL, the show features Iranian rappers and singers Sasy and Behzad Leito, and singer Eddie Attar, all staples of RadioJavan programming. They’re all at the forefront of Persian pop, reaching global audiences. Sasy came up as an underground rapper in Iran before being exposed to an international fan base, and Leito has been compared to superstar rapper Drake in his vocal style and his connection with his fans. –Josh Bell Mandalay Bay, 8 p.m. Dec. 23, starting at $43 plus tax and fee, 18+.

Paul Shaffer and the Shāf-Shifters fill Cleopatra’s Barge with an eclectic musical mix Paul Shaffer first visited Las Vegas with his parents when he was 12 years old. The city made an indelible impression on David Letterman’s future late-night foil and bandleader, from Shaffer’s Rat Pack-inspired lingo to his eclectic musical range to his natural showmanship. After 33 years as one of the most recognizable figures in late-night television, he finally gets to “play the Palace” via a mini-residency when Paul Shaffer and the Shaf-Shifters take over Cleopatra’s Barge for a series of Friday through Sunday shows.

“I have made fun of lounge performers all my life,” he told Jimmy Kimmel during an October episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live! “This is like fulfilling my destiny, to open at Caesars Palace’s lounge. … You’ve got to do your show and get the people out to the tables, and that’s what I intend to be doing.”

Shaffer can make good-natured fun of lounge performers because of his reverence for classic-era names such as Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr. Shaffer had the thrill of backing Davis

48 12.17.17 LasVegasMagazine.com

in 1987 when Late Night with David Letterman broadcast from The Strip for a week and the singer delivered “For Once In My Life” as if Stevie Wonder wrote it specifically for him. For Shaffer’s return, it made sense for him to choose a venue with a connection to the Vegas he was aware of as he grew into being a professional musician, and Caesars Palace was one of the last Strip properties with a room that hosted top talent as far back as 1970.

The Canadian-born keyboardist was leading an ensemble dubbed The World’s Most Dangerous Band then, featuring musical colleagues bassist Will Lee and drummer Anton Fig. Shaffer had to give that name up when Letterman switched networks in 1993, and the lineup became The CBS Orchestra. After Late Show with David Letterman ended in May 2015, Shaffer resumed use of the name, and has toured extensively this year as well as released an album, Paul Shaffer and The World’s Most Dangerous Band.

Shaffer will likely include a selection of songs from that album, oldies like

“Yeh Yeh” and “Some Kind of Wonderful.” He’ll definitely include “It’s Raining Men,” which he co-wrote, but whether or not he performs album cuts like “Sorrow” or “Happy Feet” at Cleopatra’s Barge may depend on whether the songs’ respective guest vocalists (Jenny Lewis, Bill Murray) stop by.

Shaffer plans to have musical guests as well as video screens that will help enhance the storytelling that will be part of the act.

He also wanted to have a self-contained Vegas band, so in lieu of playing with his Dangerous pals he’s working with resident Cleopatra’s Barge bandleader and trumpet player David Perrico and his 14-piece Pop Strings Orchestra. The band currently performs weekend nights in Cleopatra’s Barge at 10 p.m., but for a trio of consecutive three-day weekends, they’ll transform into the Shaf-Shifters.

Adventure Gray Line promises the best sights the Southwest has to offer

LAS VEGAS is more than just exploring grandscale hotels, dining at lavish restaurants and rubbing elbows with celebrities at some of the most popping nightclubs in town. Tap into your adventurous side while experiencing Mother Nature at her finest with a round-trip tour from Las Vegas to the Grand Canyon, Hoover Dam, Lake Mead and many other unique destinations offered through Gray Line.

Travel in style and comfort by motor coach or a luxury Mercedes Sprinter limo van to one of the most majestic places in the world: the Grand Canyon. While enjoying a Grand Canyon West Rim or South Rim tour, hear historic tidbits and fun facts from your tour guide (who does double duty as your driver). Pass through Boulder City (more than 20 miles southeast of Las Vegas) and see sights like Railroad Pass Casino, Hoover Dam Lodge and other parts of the city before arriving at your first stop—the iconic Mike O’Callaghan-Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge. Climb to the top of the stairs and walk

to the center of the bridge for breathtaking views of the Hoover Dam below.

On the West Rim tour, retreat to Guano Point and Eagle Point to take advantage of wonderful vistas of the canyon. Then shop for Native American keepsakes at the gift shop, enjoy dance performances by Hualapai Indians, and take in the sights from the glass-bottomed Skywalk (additional fee)—one of the most popular options at the West Rim. On the South Rim tour, get ready to “ooh” and “aah” over the extinct volcano Fortification Hill, which happens to overlook Hoover Dam and Lake Mead. Stop at places like Bright Angel Lodge, Mather Point and Yavapai Point for photo opportunities, dine at the National Geographic Visitor’s Center for lunch and watch an IMAX film (naturally!) about the Grand Canyon.

Pique your interest with a variety of other Gray Line sightseeing tour options, including a Hoover Dam half-day tour with guided access, a Hoover Dam and Lake Mead combo tour and evening Lake Mead dinner cruise on select nights. One thing to make note of is that you can enhance your Grand Canyon or Hoover Dam

Guano Point

experience with skydiving, river rafting and helicopter excursions.

But why stop there? Journey to the Valley of Fire, Nevada’s oldest state park, visit Red Rock Canyon, zipline through and beyond Bootleg Canyon, fly through the sky on a helicopter night tour of Las Vegas, head out to Laughlin for the day on a casino gaming tour or prepare for the ride of your life on the only ATV tour that takes you through Lake Mead National Park to the Colorado River. Make plans to return to Las Vegas during the winter season for Gray Line’s signature multiday tour with stops at the Grand Canyon South Rim, Monument Valley and Zion National Park.

As you can see, if you can imagine it, odds are Gray Line can make it happen.

Dive Deep

The closest one can get to the deep blue sea without driving four hours from Las Vegas might just be at the south end of the Strip. Shark Reef Aquarium (Mandalay Bay, 702.632.4555) has allowed visitors to get up close and personal with marine life for 17 years, whether separated from the various Shark Reef inhabitants by a waterproof transparent partition or brought together at a touch pool.

The latest addition to Shark Reef Aquarium is Polar Journey, an experience that starts out with an introductory film on an overhead dome. A wall projection allows children to feed virtual krill to underwater mammals, a pathway allows guests to walk over ice sheets that crack beneath their feet, sound-equipped chairs are programmed with the sounds of polar animals, and a motion-ride “Sea Explorer” hits both the
