Las Vegas
a dazzling wonderland in the desert
Sometimes it’s a little hard to describe Las Vegas to someone that’s never been; as you’re flying over this large expanse of empty desert, suddenly appears this shining, sparkling, shimmering metropolis – and that’s before the evening lights turn on! It’s really quite mesmerising from the moment you arrive; feel the buzz of the city, walk the strip for the first time, see the sights you’ve dreamt of for years with your own eyes.
Whilst casinos & gambling might be the face-value draw to this US city, there’s so much more on offer. Certainly regarded as an entertainment capital, many of the world-famous hotels & resorts are home to world-class productions, including Cirque du Soleil, a range of burlesque & showgirl productions and even global superstars performing residences. If music isn’t your thing, maybe food is; more & more celebrity chef restaurants are opening each year. Spend your days exploring, shopping, cooling off by the pool or explore the nearby sites of the Hoover Dam, Mojave Desert and Grand Canyon, Las Vegas is somewhere everybody should visit at least once.

The cosmopolitan
One of the cool kids on the block, The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas is one of our popular options, especially for those looking for a cool atmosphere and modern ambience.
