Need some recommendations. First trip with kids. It’s over UK spring break. Neither are 21.

Zion- recommendations, must do trails?

Grand Canyon day trip?

Any other family friendly ideas!

Being under 21 in Vegas is gonna suck a little. I highly recommend the Hoover Damn tour though, it's really interesting. Grand Canyon is a little further away. Make sure to walk through the Luxor.

Tons to do and great shows for U21.....Mac King, Beatles Love cirque, Le Reve, High Roller, NY coaster, zipline at Fremont, shops at Caesars, Top Golf, Vegas Knights if home, and just taking in the scenery of the nicer resorts.

Do Zion and stay overnight and go visit the Grand Canyon from the north the next day.

I’d recommend eating here:

Good pizza and craft beer

Stay here (you can walk straight into the park from your room):

I’d book right away because it fills up early.

Here is a couple -- rent a car and drive the 25-30 minutes to Red Rock State Park . Tons of trails , tons to see and do . And beautiful , esp if you are a nature/outdoor lover

also Freemont St at night worth the trip . Lots to see , people watch . GREAT Thai food down at the end about 1-2 blocks past the tower where the zip line starts . I'm a foodie and that Thai place is fantastic .

Watch the water show , thats fun , go to the Mardi Gras and hang . They have a authentic Chinese place thats top notch .

There was a time when Vegas tried to make itself more family friendly. That time went bye bye. Good luck in taking your non 21 year olds to anything not called: Circus Circus or the Excalibur show. Just too many boobies everywhere else.

I'd go out to Zion and Bryce Canyon myself. Some of the most beautiful places in the world.

They are both over 18 so they can go to all the shows we’d see. Wouldn’t even attempt to go if they were under 18.

OP- Go see Big Elvis. He is free. At Harrah's Casino. He has several shows per day. Need to check the schedule. Plays for an hour.

Allegedly the rumor is that Elvis had an affair with a housemaid and Big Elvis is his kid. Peter Vallee. Has a star on the blvd.

We’ve always been amazed by the number of parents that bring their toddlers with them and walk up and down the strip. Has to be the absolute worst idea for kids. YMMV. ATKOT. IMO.

Dude probably is taming strange after ever gig. I bet he gives weynen a run for his money. You hear the ****** Elvis impersonators, and they can’t sing, that guy actually sounds like him

Most definitely taming strange.

Yeah Big Elvis hits notes that only Elvis can hit.

Really is amazing to see him. He also eats while he performs lol

Zion, do the Narrows but pay attention to the weather. There was a trail, forgot the name of it where we watched people basically squeak/crawl/ease around each other to pass because the trail was so narrow...we said HELL NO! But Zion NP is awesome. If you can swing Bryce NP you'll love Bryce isn't very big and you can see the Hot spots in a day.

We're heading back out there next winter for the UK games and we're going to head to Death Valley. I could spend a couple of days there.
