It's awesome. Take lots of money and get a trip to the Grand Canyon. It was unbelievably hot, never experienced heat like it ever. I loved the Wedding Chapels and the night life is fantastic. Walk the strip and catch a show. It's a great place.... Enjoy x |

I've been on a couple of stag do's.
A few tips.
1. Give yourself a very strict gambling budget each day and stick to it. That way you'll know what you can have a dabble with. If you're up then great, start the same budget the next day rather than spending previous winnings.
2. Play blackjack as much better odds. Still in the casinos favour but less so than roulette.
3. Go to one of the buffet restaurants at a hotel on the strip. They're awesome. The Wynn was my favourite.
4. If you go to a strip club, get a taxi somewhere off the strip. They're a complete rip off!
5. Unless you're minted I wouldn't bother with a gun range. Absolute rip off. I've shot guns in Vietnam for literally 100th of the price of the Vegas gun range.
6. Drink a shit load of water. With the heat / boozing and amount of walking you'll do, you'll be have dead by day 3.
Enjoy. I'm going on another stat do there next year!  |

I love Vegas. I wouldn't recommend doing the grand canyon unless you take a helicopter - otherwise it's a really long drive for only a week's holiday 
Definitely do a buffet at one of the restaurants on the strip. I love the one at the Paris hotel. A good tip here is to go on the cusp of breakfast/lunch or lunch/dinner. That way you get more choices.
Take a look online for all the free/cheap things you can do while you're there. I know they have been cutting back on these lately, but there should still be plenty. For example, Caesar's Palace used to do an amazing tour behind the scenes of its aquarium if you knew where to be and when.
And watch National Lampoons Vegas Vacation before you go to get you in the mood  Have fun! |

"Anyone been and any recommendations?"
I know the place very well and all the places worth driving to, outside of vegas, what do you want to know?
and where are you staying?
Best places I have stayed are Wynn & MGM Signature although I have stayed on most of the strip hotels.
Do not go to the circus circus even for a look it is one of the biggest dumps on the strip |
