A very fun experience to explore Las Vegas at night and its iconic neon lights is to take a guided night tour by jeep, which will show you the most emblematic places of the city such as the Las Vegas Strip (the street where the casinos and the most famous hotels are located), Fremont Street (the historic heart of the city) or the popular "Welcome to Las Vegas" sign where you can pose for some pictures.

Together with a small group, your guide will take you on a walking tour to discover the amazing ambiance and architecture of the main hotels and casinos in Las Vegas.

You will also see the famous High Roller (the world's largest panoramic Ferris wheel) and shows such as the "Mirage Volcano" (which mixes fireball explosions with music) or the "Fremont Street Experience" (one of the biggest tourist attractions in the center that combines visual and sound effects on the big screen).

If after the night tour in Las Vegas you feel like a show, you are in the right place because the offer of the city is huge: concerts, musicals, magic shows, circus... The night is young and here it is impossible to get bored!

3. Las Vegas night tour by tour bus

Another interesting option to get to know Las Vegas at night is to take a tour bus tour.

If you are traveling on a tight budget but do not want to miss the chance to see Las Vegas in all its splendor, I recommend that you value the option of a night tour bus tour as it will allow you to enjoy the illuminated city and know its main attractions while you travel comfortably seated and listen to the live commentary of an English-speaking guide.

Unlike the typical Hop-on Hop-off tour buses, Las Vegas night tours are not intended to be used as a means of transportation to get around the city (hopping on and off at any part of the tour) but to quietly enjoy the illuminated scenery by completing the entire itinerary.

To take a night tour of Las Vegas you can either book one as such (standard or adult) or book one that combines the day and night pass, which will give you access to several routes available to see both sides of the city, day and night, riding on a bus.
