Q:What are the best day trips from Las Vegas?
A:

There are so many fantastic places you can visit on day trips from Las Vegas, it can be hard to choose which direction to go. Some of the day trips with the highest ratings from previous customers are:

Q:Is a day trip from Vegas to the Grand Canyon worth it?
A:

Yes, day trips from Vegas to the Grand Canyon are totally worth it. If you’ve never been to the country’s most famous national park, a guided tour from Sin City is a great way to do it. Many day trips are by coach—so even though it’s a long drive you’ll be able to relax on the way there and back—and there are also helicopter tours of the canyon for a truly spectacular experience.

Q:What cities are near Las Vegas?
A:

Las Vegas can seem like a world unto itself, but it’s actually within day-trip range of several cities and towns. The most popular metropolis to visit on a Vegas day trip is Los Angeles, with many tours including places like Santa Monica and Hollywood. With your own wheels, you can also take day trips to Arizona cities like Flagstaff or Sedona.

Q:What natural sights are near Las Vegas?
A:

Vegas is surrounded by national parks and monuments. The Grand Canyon is an extremely popular day trip from Las Vegas, but don’t overlook some of the other gorgeous parks nearby—some of which are even closer than the Grand Canyon: Zion (about two hours away), Bryce Canyon (about four hours), Death Valley (about 2.5 hours), and Joshua Tree (about 3.5 hours).

Q:Is Lake Tahoe a day trip from Las Vegas?
A:

No, it’s too far away to be a day trip. The drive from Vegas to Lake Tahoe takes more than seven hours one way. Tahoe is a reasonable day trip from the San Francisco Bay area—but if you’re looking for scenic day trips from a home base in Las Vegas, you should consider places like Lake Mead, the Valley of Fire, or even the Grand Canyon.

Q:How many days do you need in Las Vegas?
A:

There is so much going on in Las Vegas that it can be hard to decide on the length of your stay. Spending 3–4 days in the city gives you a chance to see a few shows, do some shopping, take in the main sights along The Strip, and possibly even take a day trip to a nearby park or recreation area. With five or more days, you can think about multiple day trips.
