Get an Eiffel of the sights...

Top sights to see away from the tables:

- The Grand Canal at the Venetian Hotel and Casino

- See the (replica) sights of Paris and New York

- The extreme thrill rides at the top of the Stratosphere hotel

- One of the big shows at Caesar's Palace

- Museums from the Guggenheim to the Liberace.

- And don't forget further out is some of the most spectacular scenery in the world, why not get a trip to the Grand Canyon under your belt!

As for eating our top tip is to venture further than the comfort of your own hotel's restaurants, they don't often represent the best value or quality.

- Check out Chinois Las Vegas at Caesar's Palace forum shopping for an incredible pan-Asian menu at great prices.

- For a more traditional menu but no scrimping on style or service try Binion's Ranch Steakhouse, which along with it's reputation for quality fare offers one of the best views of town.

Wherever you stay and whatever you do make sure you don't bet more than you're comfortable with, make the most of the freebies and get out and about once or twice while you're there!
