Las Vegas - 9 Days

Day 1: Arrival & The Strip Kickoff

• Touchdown Vegas! Check into your hotel and get ready to soak in those iconic neon lights.

• Evening: Take a walk along The Strip, watch the Bellagio Fountains, and grab a bite at a fun, quirky restaurant. Bonus points if you find a place with an over-the-top dessert!

Day 2: Seven Magic Mountains & Local Vibes

• Morning: Rent a car and head 20 minutes south to the surreal Seven Magic Mountains — giant neon boulders rising in the desert. Perfect for Instagram, existential thoughts, and a little sand in your shoes.

• Afternoon: Explore Downtown Las Vegas — Fremont Street Experience with its buzzing light show, street performers, and vintage casinos.

• Chaos moment: Attempting to catch the perfect photo with zero photobombers? Good luck.

Day 3: Skydiving & Thrills

• Morning: Time to jump… literally! Book a tandem skydiving session just outside Vegas for breathtaking views of the desert and city skyline. (Adrenaline junkies, this is your playground.)

• Afternoon: Recover with a relaxing spa visit or a dip in your hotel pool — you earned it.

• Evening: Try your luck at a casino or catch a show (Cirque du Soleil is a classic).

Day 4: Red Rock Canyon & Hiking

• Morning: Escape the hustle with a trip to Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area. Enjoy scenic hikes or simply drive the 13-mile loop for jaw-dropping views.

• Afternoon: Lunch at a local café with a view of the desert mountains.

• Chaos moment: Trying to avoid sunburn while hiking in July — good luck with that sunscreen re-application!

Day 5: Foodie Day & Secret Bars

• All day: Vegas is a food mecca. Eat your way through brunch spots, celebrity chef restaurants, and hidden speakeasies.

• Evening: Hunt down secret bars or quirky lounges — think vintage vibes and inventive cocktails.

Day 6: Day Trip to Hoover Dam & Lake Mead

• Afternoon: Chill by Lake Mead, maybe rent a kayak or paddleboard if you’re feeling adventurous.

Day 7: Pool Party & Nightlife

• Day: Vegas pool parties are legendary. Find a lively one with DJs, cabanas, and cocktails. Time to lounge and people-watch.
