Whose been to Vegas? What are some must do things when there?
Got a trip to Vegas as one of my birthday gifts from my gf. Never been there before so wondering if anyone has and if so what are some must see places or attractions? Will be doing some gambling but not too much hopefully. Not too big on clubs or anything either.
Hope to take a helicopter tour to grand canyon but besides that not too sure what we should do yet. Seems to be infinite things to do there!!

Sounds like you are in the same boat as I am. I'm not big into clubs and only gamble a little for entertainment. That said, I have been to Vegas twice and have enjoyed it each time. I don't know if I'd call anything a "must see". I was content just walking the strip and going into each casino. There are casino boats where I live, but the scale of the casinos out there is immense. Sort of hard to describe. Probably makes me a stereotypical tourist, but I like the themed casinos like the Venition and Paris. There a few free things that are interesting, and considering they are free, there is really nothing to lose. In no particular order...
Bellagio fountains
Treasure Island pirate battle
Mirage volcano
Bascially almost every casino has something that they use to draw people in. MGM Grand had lions, Mirage had tigers, the list goes on. I think 2002 was the last time I was there, so I believe there are several new casinos since I have been there. Have fun.

Never been there with my significant other but I've been there 9 times since turning 21. Def walk the strip and collect as many porno cards as you can, maybe shoot some guns (fully automatics!), you could rent exotic cars, dune buggying is fun (done that once), visit all the casinos. Caesar's Palace has a nice little mall, Wynn has Ferrari store (but you have to pay to go in), fat burgers.

Nice. Yeah seems overwhelming with the things to do there! I'm staying at the MGM Grand. Was going to do the red canyon exotic car tour thing but they were booked or couldn't guarantee I could drive the Ferrari which I wanted to so not sure if I will or not yet.
Definitely will be checking out the different hotels. Stratosphere looks cool as well with some of the rides on top.

Watch it around the strat place is a little hood over there now a days, when I was there deff a lot more sketchy. My buddy who lives in vegas told me the same thing. Going with a gf you can have a great time, but you can deff get your self in a lot more trouble and fun without one
