The Ultimate Las Vegas Bucket List!

Las Vegas is the ultimate bucket list destination, there’s so much to do! Between eating, dancing, drinking, people watching, going to shows, walking around, the possibilities are endless! Check out all of my Las Vegas recommendations and let me know if you’re inspired to visit!

Where To Stay

I’ve stayed at different hotels based on budget and travel purpose and my favorite was the Wynn. Their pools are amazing, it’s in a great location with delicious restaurants nearby.

Treasure Island is a great budget option but it’s all the way at the end of the strip so not necessarily in a centralized location.

Excalibur and The Linq are other great budget options. The Linq has some great views of the ferris wheel.

Where to Eat and Drink

I love Las Vegas because they have so many world famous restaurants. Casa Playa is my favorite restuarant because their Casa Playa Surf & Turf platter is incredible! It comes with tortillas, salsas, wagyu carne asada, lobster, jumbo shrimp, short rib suadero, and pork belly al pastor!

What To See and Do

GO FOR A RUN ON THE LAS VEGAS STRIP

WALK AROUND AND CHECK OUT THE DIFFERENT HOTELS

Ceasar’s Palace is such a beautiful hotel!

Many hotels also have several art installations throughout the year so yu never know what to expect even if you’ve been to Las Vegas many times.

Harrah’s has this fantastic sign that rarely has a huge line unlike the other popular Las Vegas sign.

Harrah’s is also super close to this ferris wheel!

Aria hotel has this great area to take photos!

The Venetian is my favorite hotel to walk around in, it’s so beautiful!

The Cosmopolitan Hotel has these beautiful lights inside!

It’s also so fun to window shop and see the art!

RIDE THE ROLLER COASTER

ROLLERCOASTER

GO TO A RODEO

RODEO

I got to go to the 2015 Professional Bull Riders world Finals in Las Vegas!!! Yamille hooked me up with suite tickets!!! It was so awesome but definitely super terrifying to see 2 riders get seriously injured. Got to see the best riders in the world do what they love. It was a little stressful for me because I’m a very empathetic person and I was worried about every single rider lol but all in all it was an awesome time! Everyone should go to a rodeo once in their life!

It was epic and I learned that in professional bull riding there are people who help the riders mount the bulls and while watching them I thought to myself ‘is it too much for me to want someone to hold me the way that the helpers hold the riders while they are initially mounting the bulls?’ Lol half kidding hahaha it’s just super cute I mean look at how he’s holding him! Lol
