18 Best Things to Do in Las Vegas
"Rising some 550 feet above the Strip, the High Roller is the second-highest observation wheel in the world—higher than the London Eye or the Singapore Flyer, and only recently eclipsed by the Ain Dubai (820 feet, opened in 2021). You’ll simply board your glass-domed pod and take a slow revolution up. This being Vegas, there’s a bar before you get on and another one inside, if you book an open-bar experience. If you need to allay your guilt for taking the kids out of school to go to Vegas, you can book the S.T.E.M. family field trip guide, which teaches you—and the kids—about its architectural design and technology. No matter what kind of ride you book, you’ll be treated to 360-degree views of one of the world’s most dramatic landscapes." - Andrea Bennett
