College students love their spring break, and hitting the famous beaches in places like Florida, California, and Mexico is probably the norm. But there are different places that can be just as fun as the overcrowded getaway beaches. For example, a Las Vegas spring break for college students might be just the ticket.
The city of glitz welcomes college students to Las Vegas for spring break, but with one small caveat. Although gambling and alcohol are really big things that probably go hand in hand in Las Vegas, the law is taken very seriously when a minor is caught drinking and gambling. If you are a minor, remember that you will need to find something else to pass the time in Las Vegas. But don’t despair, Las Vegas offers much more than gambling and drinks. In fact, there are so many things to see and do that it would be hard to cover them all in one go.
If you start wandering down the strip, you’ll notice all the different themed hotels that immediately catch your eye. All of them vying for your attention and all of them worth taking a look at, even if you’re not staying there. Take a walk or gondola ride down the Grand Canal in Venice. Experience ancient Egypt in another hotel. Or you can take a quick trip to Paris and soak up the French atmosphere.
It would probably take you almost a week to see all the hotels and the different things they have to offer for your enjoyment. Like the Mirage, which is a true oasis on an island that sits right in the middle of the desert. Equipped with waterfalls and a volcano right in the lobby and you don’t want to miss their mini rainforest that you can walk through. And they are also home to the ever-famous Seigfreid and Roy white tigers.
No matter what you’re in the mood for, variety shows, stand-up comedy, concerts, you name it, Las Vegas has something for every tourist. One of the oldest shows that is always a must see is the Folies Bergere. This show has been open the longest in Las Vegas history.
If you’re a sports fan or someone who loves a good concert, you might want to consider visiting the grandeur of the MGM Grand that hosts a variety of sporting events and concerts during spring break.
If the Middle Ages is something that intrigues you, then you won’t want to miss out on what Excalibur has to offer. Every night they organize jousting shows during dinner hours called Torneo de Reyes. A must for those who love the atmosphere of honour, chastity and gallantry of those distant days of medieval times.
If pirates are more up your alley, then you won’t want to miss the various pirate shows offered by the Treasure Island hotel. These shows of pirates and pirate ships clashing are free and you don’t even have to be at the hotel to enjoy them. They are made in such a way that people on the Las Vegas strip can see and enjoy them.
There are 20 impressive hotels lining the Las Vegas Strip and 18 of them happen to be the largest hotels in the United States. They each compete with each other doing their best to outdo their competition and attract more tourists their way than their competitors. So there will always be something new and exciting somewhere.
Keep in mind, however, that spring break Las Vegas for college students won’t be cheap, so you’d be wise to book the cheapest flight and take advantage of the great mid-week specials hotels offer, or you might just consider stay in one of the less expensive hotels or motels.
