Whether you’re a high roller or a low-key lounger, Las Vegas has something to suit your vacation taste. Sample fare from top chefs and cornucopian buffets, try your luck at one of the world’s premier casinos, or take in a spectacular show. Just wandering the Strip is enough to get your heart pumping. Once you’ve had enough of the razzle-dazzle, wave hello to the toothy sea life at the Mandalay Bay Shark Reef, hike Red Rock Canyon, or visit the Neon Museum, where old signs take on new life.

I want to give a shout out to Scott Ferguson for his help. Not only was he helpful with the art I took in for evaluation but he was so informative and taught me a few things about what to look for when buying art. I left some art for reframing and the price was very fair. They have beautiful art in their gallery, you have to go take a look when your in Vegas. I had a great time with Scott.

My husband and I love arcades so I knew we wanted to visit the Pinball Hall of Fame during our recent trip to Las Vegas. We took an Uber 2.5 miles off the strip and arrived at the Pinball Hall of Fame around 11:30, a half-hour after they opened. There is no admission fee, the place is cool and dimly lit and we loved every second! I had brought a roll of quarters, but there is a change machine right in the door. Just walk inside and start playing. So many machines from the 1940s through the 1990s. My husband and I loved playing pinball on the older machines and then reliving our teens on Donkey Kong and TMNT. The place including the restroom is clean. We stayed for about 2 hours and very much enjoyed our time there. There were about 20 people in the place when we left. I hear it gets much crowded with a much-varied clientele later in the day. Overall we had a great experience and definitely plan to return on our next trip. Bring your quarters and come early!

This is a great learning experience if you want to learn about our human body of anatomy and physiology and worth the price for 4 people its like 70 plus something around that price try to find discounts too. It's a medium size museum but it takes about 1 hour or so to tour the entire museum. Everything about our human bodies are here and really unique to see. I think if you have a test at school in science go check this out this is real. For the price it's worth it for kids and adults.

Millions and millions of people have flocked through the doors of Madame Tussauds since they first opened over 200 years ago and it remains just as popular as it ever was. There are many reasons for this enduring success, but at the heart of it all is good, old-fashioned curiosity. Today's visitors are sent on a unique, emotionally-charged journey through the realms of the powerful and famous. The museum-style ropes and poles have gone so guests can truly get up, close and personal with A-list celebrities, sporting legends, political heavyweights and historical icons, reliving the times, events and moments that made the world talk about them....
Some great wax sculptures of loads of celebrities. Some of them looked incredibly real!! Definitely a must see if you like this kind of stuff!! Plenty of superstars such as Thomas, Beyoncé, Justin briber, mike Tyson, Evie Presley, Dwayne Johnson, Brad Pitt, Channing Tatum, Jerry Springer and plenty plenty more!!!

Bellagio Gallery of Fine Art is Las Vegas' premier exhibition space--where great art goes on vacation. BGFA is committed to presenting intimate exhibitions featuring works by some of the world's most compelling artists. Organized in partnership with museums and foundations from around the world, past exhibitions have included "Picasso: Creatures and Creativity," "Fabergé Revealed," "Painting Women: Works from the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston," "Warhol Out West," "Figuratively Speaking: A Survey of the Human Form" and "Classic Contemporary: Lichtenstein, Warhol and Friends."
When we visited in April 2019 the Bellagio Gallery had two installations by artist Yayoi Kusama. One of the exhibits is a bunch of silver spheres sitting on the floor. The other one, which is the one we wanted to see, was the infinity room. Your time in the room is very brief - only 45 seconds - but the infinity effect is amazing. We each went in separately. My job was still photos, his was video. They do have a AAA discount on admission tickets, so be sure to ask for that if you have AAA. The Gallery is located right across from the main entrance to the pool & they have signs through the hotel/casino pointing the way. It is a pretty good walk from the main lobby/Conservatory, but if you're going to the Conservatory anyway this is worth checking out. At least until they change artists - make sure to check their web site to see the current exhibit.

An art museum located on the campus of the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.
You've probably heard a lot of jokes about people visiting Las Vegas to see the museums and art galleries. Well, it's true. People do visit museums and art galleries in a town known for its gambling and casinos. One popular destination is the Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art. Located at 4505 South Maryland Parkway on the main campus of the University of Nevada-Las Vegas (UNLV), it was established in 1967 as a natural history museum with a focus on natural history and environment of Nevada and the southwestern United States. In 2011, it joined the UNLV College of Fine Arts and became the anchor of six galleries and one museum that offer a wide variety of exhibitions and events, including an ongoing series of public lectures that has included Jimmy Carter, Gerald Ford and Mikhail Gorbachev. Today, the Barrick Museum is committed to collecting art of the present. The Barrick Collection includes Pre-Columbian cultural objects from the American Southwest and Mesoamerica while the Vogel Collection featuring one of the most remarkable collections of contemporary art in America, including works by Stephen Antonakos, Neil Jenney, Lynda Benglis, Lucio Pozzi, Bettina Werner, Edda Renouf and Richard Tuttle.

This museum is devoted to the Nevada Test Site.
I was pleasantly surprised. This is a legit museum affiliated with the Smithsonian. It had a robust display of artifacts dating back more than 50 years, including such unexpected finds as a letter from Einstein to the US President advising on uranium, atomic potential, etc pre WWII (see pics). The collection was quite nuanced in its inclusion of not only the timeline/narrative of atomic testing, but also social and world events shaping and shaped by those scientific events. Short films, interactive stations, and first hand accounts brought context and meaning to the exhibit. Last, I appreciated the inclusion of protests and movements against atomic testing, as well as broader social issues around testing/testing sites. These included areas within the exhibit pertaining to Native people, lands, and artifacts. Also, environmental impacts, including water, soil, food chain (livestock and crops) implications and testing protocols were also included. There are also artifacts from the Berlin Wall and World Trade Center, all of which made this exhibit incredibly poignant for me. Overall, I was impressed by both the breadth and depth of this unexpected gem. General admission is $22 at the door, with discounted tickets for seniors, active military, students, kids, and Nevada residents. Get the Groupon for general admission - currently $30 for 2, which beats all discounts at the ticket booth. There is ample parking adjacent to the museum (extremely close) and parking is free. We spent about 2 hours, read many displays in great detail and saw 3 quick films in the exhibit. You could power through in an hour only skimming things. Those with expertise or high interest could probably be engaged 4 hours or more. For us, 2 hours was sufficient to enjoy it thoroughly. Last, note there are movies playing on a continuous loops right outside the gift shop/ticket area. See pic for list of movies at time of our visit (they might change). Each of these was long - 45 min or so - and the ticket clerk suggested we take a picture of the list and watch them later on YouTube. Great suggestion for us, as it was a lovely 72• outside. But when it’s miserably hot in the summer, the movie marathon here would be a great way to escape the heat. Overall, we highly recommend.

This small museum contains an authentic multi-room reproduction of King Tutankhamun's tomb.
For those who may have missed the exhibit when installed at the Luxor Casino this is a way to recapture the past and see something almost as good as the real tomb in the Valley of the Kings. The museum is a bargain and easy to get to.
