Vegas trip... a little overwhelmed

[gmi3804]

Thanks.

Would you go again and/or recommend it to someone who hasn't seen it?

I’m not sure I’d go again, but I’d also definitely recommend it to someone who wants the Sphere Experience, and it was definitely worth my time. The Sphere is really something else.

I have the Chase Sapphire Reserve card and used my $150 semi-annual StubHub credit to purchase my ticket.

Yea, I'd like the experience and WoO is what's playing when we're there.

I would echo it’s worth experiencing the sphere no matter the show.

I think I have a plan. Showed it to DW (who had told me what she's interested in) and she "signed off" on it. Sent it to my aunt letting her know she can join us for whatever she likes. Aunt thinks it's a lot. DW says "yea, you tend to pack in too much". So, keep in mind we arrive at Noon on Saturday and leave the following Friday night (10p)

Here's what's on our agenda (nothing booked yet):
*Neon Museum
*Bus Tour to Grand Canyon
*Tour the strip (Possibly include Madame Toussauds & High Roller)
*Wizard of Oz
*Drive to Hoover Dam and do guided tour
*Variety Show
*Golden Knights Game
*Couples Massage
*Cirque show

If we can get to Freemont Street and Pinball Museum, bonus.

I will readily admit when I'm on vacation somewhere I want to "do" things. If I'm just going to sit in a room and read or watch TV, I can do that at home and save money. I'm also the paranoid type who thinks "what if I never get back?"

When looking at a list, I can see someone think "that's a lot". But when you consider this is spread out over 6+ days, is it really?

The only thing - the Grand Canyon is a LOT...like an enormous suck of boring time getting to and fro. It's not always the best use of "fun" time in Vegas for the time you are there...

But drop that, and it looks like a great plan...

That is very easily done in 6+ days, you will not feel rushed at all.

Which Cirque show? Of the Cirque shows, I have only seen Mad Apple, I think it is very different than the others, and I very much enjoyed it. Mad Apple is very much a variety show with some Cirque thrown in.

Haven't decided on which Cirque show yet. Guessing we can't go wrong with any really any of them.

I'm sure we'll spend some time in a casino, but that can happen when we're touring the strip. I also haven't blocked out time for meals, but that shouldn't be an issue either, and can depend on the day.
