James Bond would be practically unrecognizable without his shaken martini. The secret agent has probably ordered one in every corner of the globe, but he should try asking for some of these when he is next traveling. 

Tokyo, Japan

The Ritz-Carlton is the epitome of class and the one in Tokyo is located in one of the city’s tallest buildings. If you pay a visit, order the Diamonds are Forever Martini. Made with Absolut Elyx vodka, lime juice, and a one-carat diamond, it will set you back $19,000.

Las Vegas, United States

You’re never short of bar options in Las Vegas, but XS Nightclub is where to head if you want a bit of bling. The Ono Cocktail features Charles Heidsieck Champagne Charlie 1981 and Rémy Martin’s Louis XIII Black Pearl cognac, as well as a pair of gold cufflinks and an 18-karat gold necklace with a black pearl and diamond. All that for only $10,000.

London, England

The Tale Bar in Mayfair is home to the third most-expensive cocktail in the world. For $7,000 you can order a drink called Salvatore’s Legacy which has 1778 Clos de Griffier Vieux cognac, 1770 Kummel liqueur, Dubb Orange Curacao circa 1860, and two dashes of Angostura bitters circa the 1900s.

Las Vegas, Nevada, does things differently than most other major U.S. cities. This is why it doesn’t come as a surprise that Harry Reid International Airport offers some unique experiences for travelers. Check out some of them below and find a perfect way to waste some time while waiting on your flight.

Get Married

We know that Las Vegas is the “Wedding Capital of the World.” Staying true to its reputation, the city sets up a pop-up marriage license office at the Harry Reid International Airport around Valentine’s Day. Located in the T1 baggage claim area, the office will issue couples a valid marriage license for $102.

Play Slots

Have $10 burning a hole in your pocket? Then simply take your seat at one of the airport’s slots. There are 1,400 of them scattered around the airport grounds, and they will provide you with some quick entertainment until it’s time to board your flight. And who knows, maybe you hit one of those generous jackpots.

Explore Aviation Museum

Harry Reid International Airport is just one of few U.S. airports that also have a museum as part of its complex. Howard W. Cannon Aviation Museum focuses on the early history of aviation in Nevada, featuring 30 display cases with various aviation artifacts and several video presentations.

Enjoy a Workout or Relaxing Massage

If you would like to use the downtime to exercise, there is a full-service gym at your disposal at the Las Vegas airport. You can also choose to enjoy a relaxing massage or sauna to freshen up before a long flight.

Welcome to the fabulous Las Vegas—the city that never sleeps, the city of lights, and the city of endless entertainment. There’s never a dull moment in Sin City, and we’re here to show you some of the best things to do there.

The Vegas Strip

You can’t visit Vegas without checking out the famous Las Vegas Strip. This four-mile stretch of road is packed with casinos, hotels, restaurants, and entertainment venues. From the Bellagio Fountains to the Mirage Volcano, there’s always something exciting happening on the strip.

Cirque du Soleil

For those who love a good show, you can’t miss the world-famous Cirque du Soleil. With a variety of shows to choose from, you’re sure to find something that will leave you in awe. And if you’re a music lover, catch a concert from one of the many residencies from legendary performers such as Celine Dion, Elton John, or Britney Spears.

Beautiful Nature

Of course, Vegas isn’t all about gambling and entertainment. For a taste of the great outdoors, take a trip to Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area. The stunning landscape of red sandstone cliffs and desert flora is the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Stratosphere Tower

And if you’re looking for a thrill, head to the top of the Stratosphere Tower for a heart-pumping ride on one of the thrill rides that dangle over the edge of the tower. Or, take a zip line ride down Fremont Street, the original Vegas hotspot.

Going to the grocery store is a necessary, but sometimes boring, experience. Not in Las Vegas, though. Visitors to Sin City are used to the bright lights of casinos and performances, but one particular grocery store has earned its place on the list. 

Found at the AREA 15 arts complex is Omega Mart. With bright colors, music, and a fair amount of glitter, a trip to this installation resembles a psychedelic trip.

The idea comes from Meow Wolf, an arts and entertainment company in Santa Fe which has created other immersive experiences like the House of Eternal Return in New Mexico. 

More than 300 artists have contributed to Omega Mart and the result is four unique spaces that are all certain to blow your mind. 

As guests begin the journey, they will find themselves in a seemingly ordinary grocery store featuring products like an energy drink called Wake Up Please!, dehydrated water, emergency clams, and cans of tattoo chicken. Almost all are available to purchase as souvenirs.

The next area is named Dramcorp, after the fictionalized corporate entity behind Omega Mart, and includes a labyrinth-style maze. It is then onto the Factory, a playground where the unusual products are manufactured, and finally, the Projected Desert, which is an exploration through vibrant psychedelic realms. 

The 20-minute experience costs $49 for adults, and $45 for children, seniors, and members of the military.

Las Vegas, Nevada, is truly a special place. Everything here is tailor-made to entertain tourists and visitors and the city really never sleeps. There is something to do here at any point of day or night. However, this also can be overwhelming for first-time visitors, and they end up having fewer fun experiences than they thought they would have. To avoid this happening to you, check out some tips on how to have the best time in Las Vegas as a first-time visitor.

Avoid Visiting for Weekends or Holidays

Las Vegas is a weekend and holiday getaway for the entire United States. If you choose to visit then, you will probably get lost in the sea of tourists and visitors while waiting in line for everything. Instead, aim for your visit during workdays if that is an option. You’ll have a much better experience and will be able to explore the city hassle-free.

Book in Advance If You Want to Check Out Something

Don’t expect that you can just walk in and buy a ticket for a show in Las Vegas. These shows are all sold out well before the scheduled date in most cases. So instead of missing out, book your place or a ticket in advance. You can also do the same for most other Las Vegas tourist attractions.

Use Public Transportation Instead of Walking

This might seem like an odd one at first, but it will serve you well. While lots of attractions and points of interest may seem within walking distance, they are not. Everything is farther than it looks, and you don’t want to get exhausted from walking in Las Vegas. So instead, take public transportation (or an Uber) whenever you can.

Set a Budget and Stick to It

Everything in Las Vegas is inviting you to spend money. This is why setting a budget and sticking to it is the best decision you can make. Yes, you want to have fun. But you probably don’t want to run your entire bank account to the ground.

Have you ever watched that scene in the movie “Tangled” and wished you could see it for yourself? Well, it’s your lucky day, because we’re here to tell you that you can!

From cultural traditions in countries like Thailand and India, to celebrations of the ocean in Japan, lantern festivals take place for all sorts of reasons. But whatever the celebration, they are a true sight to behold. Here are the most spectacular lantern festivals you should start planning a visit to.

Yi Peng Lantern Festival, Thailand

Originating from the Lanna culture of Northern Thailand, the Yi Peng lantern festival is celebrated on the second full moon of the Lanna’s calendar month. Lanterns are released into the air to mark the end of the monsoon season and beginning of the cool season.

RiSE Lantern Festival, Nevada, United States

Every year, locals and visitors alike travel to the Mojave desert in Nevada to watch thousands of lanterns rise high above the Las Vegas Strip. It’s a celebration of music, art, and individuality where visitors can write their own message on their sky lanterns and honor whatever message inspires them.

Tsunan Snow Festival, Japan

The Tsunan region gets some of the heaviest snowfall in the world, and they’ve held a snow festival every year since 1974. Visitors can try winter activities like snow biking, snow banana boating and the climax of the evening is the lanterns being launched into the sky at night.

Las Vegas can sometimes feel like a whole other planet. At this stage, we’re unable to visit another star in the solar system, but Vegas is offering a chance to head to the moon!

Plans have been announced to create a 5.5-million-square-foot hotel inspired by the moon. The brainchild behind the $5-billion idea is the Canadian company, Moon World Resorts Inc, which also has lunar-themed properties planned for the Middle East, China, and Spain over the next five years. 

Space lovers will be fascinated by the Las Vegas hotel’s replica of the moon that is set to measure 735-feet tall and 650-feet wide. Although it will only be 1/75,000 the size of the moon, it will still be large enough to accommodate 4,000 guest rooms and suites.

Guests at Moon Resort Las Vegas will not be short on entertainment, either. Expect a planetarium, theater, arena, event center, spa, and casino. It will also feature thousands of feet worth of shops and restaurants, as well as a nightclub that will be positioned directly under a “spaceship”. But no moon-themed establishment would be complete without a lunar colony. 

For the price of $500, visitors will be able to spend 90 minutes exploring a 10-acre space that mimics lunar colonies which are actively being planned by NASA and other space programs. Guests will use a moon buggy to pass over the craters, and will even need to ride a rollercoaster-like moon shuttle to reach the area. 

Moon Resorts Las Vegas is scheduled to take about four years to build.

Found at the AREA 15 arts complex is Omega Mart. With bright colors, music, and a fair amount of glitter, a trip to this installation resembles a psychedelic trip.

The idea comes from Meow Wolf, an arts and entertainment company in Santa Fe which has created other immersive experiences like the House of Eternal Return in New Mexico. 

More than 300 artists have contributed to Omega Mart and the result is four unique spaces that are all certain to blow your mind. 

As guests begin the journey, they will find themselves in a seemingly ordinary grocery store featuring products like an energy drink called Wake Up Please!, dehydrated water, emergency clams, and cans of tattoo chicken. Almost all are available to purchase as souvenirs.

The next area is named Dramcorp, after the fictionalized corporate entity behind Omega Mart, and includes a labyrinth-style maze. It is then onto the Factory, a playground where the unusual products are manufactured, and finally, the Projected Desert, which is an exploration through vibrant psychedelic realms. 

The 20-minute experience costs $49 for adults, and $45 for children, seniors, and members of the military.

Las Vegas, Nevada, is truly a special place. Everything here is tailor-made to entertain tourists and visitors and the city really never sleeps. There is something to do here at any point of day or night. However, this also can be overwhelming for first-time visitors, and they end up having fewer fun experiences than they thought they would have. To avoid this happening to you, check out some tips on how to have the best time in Las Vegas as a first-time visitor.

Avoid Visiting for Weekends or Holidays

Las Vegas is a weekend and holiday getaway for the entire United States. If you choose to visit then, you will probably get lost in the sea of tourists and visitors while waiting in line for everything. Instead, aim for your visit during workdays if that is an option. You’ll have a much better experience and will be able to explore the city hassle-free.

Book in Advance If You Want to Check Out Something

Don’t expect that you can just walk in and buy a ticket for a show in Las Vegas. These shows are all sold out well before the scheduled date in most cases. So instead of missing out, book your place or a ticket in advance. You can also do the same for most other Las Vegas tourist attractions.

Use Public Transportation Instead of Walking

This might seem like an odd one at first, but it will serve you well. While lots of attractions and points of interest may seem within walking distance, they are not. Everything is farther than it looks, and you don’t want to get exhausted from walking in Las Vegas. So instead, take public transportation (or an Uber) whenever you can.

Set a Budget and Stick to It

Everything in Las Vegas is inviting you to spend money. This is why setting a budget and sticking to it is the best decision you can make. Yes, you want to have fun. But you probably don’t want to run your entire bank account to the ground.

Have you ever watched that scene in the movie “Tangled” and wished you could see it for yourself? Well, it’s your lucky day, because we’re here to tell you that you can!

From cultural traditions in countries like Thailand and India, to celebrations of the ocean in Japan, lantern festivals take place for all sorts of reasons. But whatever the celebration, they are a true sight to behold. Here are the most spectacular lantern festivals you should start planning a visit to.

Yi Peng Lantern Festival, Thailand

Originating from the Lanna culture of Northern Thailand, the Yi Peng lantern festival is celebrated on the second full moon of the Lanna’s calendar month. Lanterns are released into the air to mark the end of the monsoon season and beginning of the cool season.

RiSE Lantern Festival, Nevada, United States

Every year, locals and visitors alike travel to the Mojave desert in Nevada to watch thousands of lanterns rise high above the Las Vegas Strip. It’s a celebration of music, art, and individuality where visitors can write their own message on their sky lanterns and honor whatever message inspires them.

Tsunan Snow Festival, Japan

The Tsunan region gets some of the heaviest snowfall in the world, and they’ve held a snow festival every year since 1974. Visitors can try winter activities like snow biking, snow banana boating and the climax of the evening is the lanterns being launched into the sky at night.

Las Vegas can sometimes feel like a whole other planet. At this stage, we’re unable to visit another star in the solar system, but Vegas is offering a chance to head to the moon!

Plans have been announced to create a 5.5-million-square-foot hotel inspired by the moon. The brainchild behind the $5-billion idea is the Canadian company, Moon World Resorts Inc, which also has lunar-themed properties planned for the Middle East, China, and Spain over the next five years. 

Space lovers will be fascinated by the Las Vegas hotel’s replica of the moon that is set to measure 735-feet tall and 650-feet wide. Although it will only be 1/75,000 the size of the moon, it will still be large enough to accommodate 4,000 guest rooms and suites.

Guests at Moon Resort Las Vegas will not be short on entertainment, either. Expect a planetarium, theater, arena, event center, spa, and casino. It will also feature thousands of feet worth of shops and restaurants, as well as a nightclub that will be positioned directly under a “spaceship”. But no moon-themed establishment would be complete without a lunar colony. 

For the price of $500, visitors will be able to spend 90 minutes exploring a 10-acre space that mimics lunar colonies which are actively being planned by NASA and other space programs. Guests will use a moon buggy to pass over the craters, and will even need to ride a rollercoaster-like moon shuttle to reach the area. 

Moon Resorts Las Vegas is scheduled to take about four years to build.
