The best part about a Las Vegas vacation will have about as many answers as is equal to the number of tourists who eagerly arrive there each year. Every one has a different opinion about what makes a Las Vegas vacation best.

Its obvious that if you go to spend money on gambling and you somehow come out ahead, for you that's the best part. If you live in any part of the world that has long winter snows, then the best part of a Las Vegas vacation for you would be to escape to a more tolerable climate for a few days.

If you are from a more rural, laid back community then the neon and night owls would appeal to you. If it didn't appeal to you, at least it would make you ready to return home quicker. That could be your best part.

Hotel rooms are plentiful and very reasonable. When you're tired of spending two hundred dollars a night for a small, poorly appointed room, the best part of a Las Vegas vacation may be the choices you have for lodging. A night's stay on "The Strip" can cost as little as forty dollars or as much as four hundred. The best part is that you get to choose according to your budget.

Dining options are numerous and the best part for some could be the lavish hotel buffets or a walk in diner offering a T-bone steak for next to nothing. World renown chefs operate their restaurants in many of the big casino hotels and yet fast food is readily available as well. Once again, the best part would be your options.

While dressing up in some of the higher priced restaurants is always appropriate, the average tourist can walk around quite comfortably in jeans. One of the best parts of a Las Vegas vacation is that you don't have to spend a king's ransom on a wardrobe before leaving home.

Anyone who has ever flown in and out of a major airport will certainly think that the organization and convenience of the Las Vegas International Airport
will rate as the best part of their trip. It is spotlessly clean, offers a tram service to the baggage pick up and for those who just can't resist, has slot machines.

Finally, and perhaps most important to some, the best part about a Las Vegas vacation is all the free things to see and do. There are dancing fountains, an erupting volcano, a water pirate show, outdoor bands and stone still mimes who will occasionally wink at unsuspecting passersby. Its all part of the fun.

The very best part about a Las Vegas vacation, however, is simply telling someone that you're planning a trip there. Everyone has a story and everyone has something to share. You can learn a lot that way simply by listening.
