Just returned from a trip to Las Vegas and by far the highlight of my trip was visiting Wayne Newton's Casa de Shenandoah! For so many years, I have driven by Shenandoah on our way to other places and I always wondered what it would look on the other side of that gate but... never could I have imagined how beautiful it really is! I've been going to Vegas since the 80's and have been a fan of Wayne's for many years, he's such a great ambassador for Las Vegas! We spent several Christmases in Vegas and I remember how the local news would show Wayne standing at the front door of his home wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and now here I was standing in front of that same door about to enter Wayne's house! What?? I could hardly believe it!! Anyone who loves Las Vegas knows the impact that Wayne Newton has had on Vegas, many a tourists have come here just to see Wayne! It's such a treat and an honor to visit Casa de Shenandoah! Our tour guide, Janet, was so personable and informative and just made the whole tour so much fun! She was so knowledgeable and enlightened us with some stories of Wayne and his family. I've always been a fan of Wayne Newton's, and always thought he was such a humble man, but visiting his museum and home just made me realize how real and kind this man is. His home is filled with priceless art and antiques and although it's very beautiful, it's also very clear that it was a family home too. It does not look sterile and untouchable, instead it's very inviting and it looks lived in and filled with love. There are so many personal touches, including family photographs. The grounds to Shenandoah are breathtaking... you really cannot believe this much green grass and trees are in the middle of a desert! Wayne's Arabian horses are amazing to see! They are so beautiful! It was such a treat to see all the other animals on the ranch too, including exotic birds, wallabees, donkey, pony and of course Boo, the monkey! Boo's caregiver, Robin, brought him and Honey, the chihuahua out to greet us.... so cute! This was a perfect way to spend an afternoon! I highly recommend this tour to anyone! The staff is absolutely wonderful! Everyone, including the shuttle bus driver, the ladies at the visitor center, Robin, who is a caregiver to the animals, and the horse caregivers were all so welcoming! Our tour guide, Janet, was awesome and made the tour fun and special! There's such a feeling of calmness on this tour, you do not feel hurried at all. Janet gave us plenty of time to enjoy the surroundings and ask any questions we may have. On a personal note, my camera broke as soon as the tour began. I could hardly believe I'm standing in Wayne Newton's front yard and I can't take any photos! Janet was so kind... she offered to take photos for me and later that day she emailed them to me! Thank you Janet! I have shared those photos with so many family and friends!! You feel very welcome by everyone at Shenandoah! I will definitely be visiting again on my next trip to Vegas! Wayne, Mr. Las Vegas, thanks for sharing your home.....it was such a pleasure to visit!! Danke schoen ( I just had to say that!)!

this is the first time I went up to the observation deck and it was amazing .. BEST PLACE for sunset for sure!!! and if you are a thrill seeker, you can bungy off the side or ride the slider that takes you off the side of the top of the Stratosphere -just plain crazy to watch but alot of people did it- you ride up the elevator at 21 miles and hour - a must see

5. The Strip

Reviewed By DaveFleck - Toronto, Canada
The Las Vegas Strip is simply amazing to see. My first time in Vegas Amazing people watching Amazing photography Amazing shopping Amazing Restaurants/Food Amazing Casinos (Many of course) Amazing Shows/Entertainment Bring comfortable running shoes as the strip is massif. You could not possibly walk the entire strip and see everything in one day. Don't forget to check out one of the most amazing and only free things on the strip The Bellagio Fountains Show The Strip is divided up into 3 sections South, Central and North Yes the strip is that large. Bring lots of money or credit as everything is very expensive on Las Vegas Strip. We will be coming back to Las Vegas Strip many more times and would recommend to anyone to see the Las Vegas Strip at least once in their life as there is nowhere else in the world like this. You don't need to be a gambler to visit Las Vegas as there is so much to see and do however if you do gamble you will be in heaven.
