    What are your favorite casinos with the most to do?

    Travelling to LV tomorrow with a bunch of friends (some under 21) and was wondering where I should take them. I have my preferences but any suggestions guys?

    Well, it depends on what they like to do. Personally, I do not swim this later in the year, but some of them might.

    A few places spring to mind: Aria (pool, spa, shopping mall, art, show); PHo (attached mall, other attractions nearby); Bellagio (spa, pools, fountain, art gallery, conservatory); TI (mall next door, pool, pirate show although it is closed right now). Wynn and Venetian are similar.

    When a friend's younger sister came with us this past summer (she was 17), we stayed at the Grand and she found plenty of stuff to do to stay busy

    There are many places to go sightseeing, especially if it your first time and under 21. If you just want to walk around and look, I recommend City Center, Cosmo, Aria, Bellagio area. If you want to taxi, go to downtown Vegas and there is more sightseeing with a different feel of Vegas, which I think is worth seeing at least one time but my friends disagree. If you want to go clubbing, try Encore, Cosmo. However, you won't be able to get in if you are under 21.

    The Orleans is a lot of fun. Bowling, Movies, Arcade and my kids love it there. They are 18 and 19. There are other casinos with these same setups. The Orleans has just been a lot of fun for us over the years.

    When I was underage (19) and my parents brought me along to Vegas, they would drop me off at Circus Circus in the morning with $200 in cash and would pick me up in the evening. I had the best time of my life. Met a college girl the same age who was also dropped of by her parents, ate buffet, went on roller coasters, played carnival games, won prizes, and ended up doing the :banana: in the parking lot. :thumbsup:

    LOL that is great. If I had a kid and decide to bring them to Vegas with me, I'd do the same thing. Too bad you didn't have a fake ID.

    Off-Strip properties such as Orleans, Sam's Town. Sunset Station, and South Point have a variety of things you can do. They have theaters, bowling, large variety of eateries for high dining or budget minded people, and lots of entertainment venues.

    All this besides the usual pools, lounges, bars, spas, and ever-present gambling that the Strip and Downtown properties offer.

    My favorite is Orleans, by the way.

    I'm going to say 2 places that get zero respect on message boards. I might get tomatoes thrown at me. But, here goes; Stratosphere and Circus Circus. Also, look into tours, state parks and shopping. Just because you can't gamble and buy drinks doesn't mean you can't be discreet with a small flask of liquor...assuming they're 18 and over and understand what "discretion" is.
