Las Vegas for Non Gamblers

The glitz and glamour of Las Vegas primarily comes from the city’s virtually endless collection of casinos. And while that tends to be the main draw, there is so much more to do in Las Vegas for non gamblers.

We’ve created this guide to help you decide what to do in Las Vegas if you aren’t looking to spend hours at the slot machines or poker tables. There is certainly plenty of fun in Vegas without gambling at all!

Entertainment and Shopping in Las Vegas

There’s no shortage of entertainment in Las Vegas, and there’s a big variety! Even when you’re vacationing in Vegas on a budget, you can find free or low-cost shows in places such as the Fremont Street Experience, known as “Old Vegas.” If you’re willing to spend the money you’re not wasting gambling, but sure to catch a Cirque du Soleil event or a headliner like Celine Dion or Jennifer Lopez.

In terms of shopping, you’ll find an overwhelming amount of shops and design boutiques. While we recommend skipping the megamalls, you’ll find ample unique emporiums within area hotels. You can even feel like you’re in Venice or Rome by strolling down the Grand Canal Shoppes at the Venetian and Palazzo resorts or the Forum Shops at Caesars Palace. These give an extra special feeling to what would otherwise be a regular day of shopping.

Las Vegas Dining

If you’re doing Las Vegas for non gamblers, you’ll have plenty of time to explore the incredible restaurants and bars of the city. Some of the places you can’t miss include:

• Top of the World on the 106th floor of the Stratosphere Tower with New American cuisine and panoramic views
• Carson Kitchen offers gourmet burgers and other small plates on a rooftop patio with live music
• SW Steakhouse gives you an open view of the water show while you dine on hearty steaks or a number of vegan-friendly dishes

You can also choose to take a food tour, like the ones offered by Lip Smacking Food Tours. These give you a taste of everything Las Vegas has to offer. There’s many varieties of tours to choose from, making it easy to find one that best suits your palate.

Outside of Vegas

If you’re doing Las Vegas for non gamblers correctly, you’ll actually want to leave The Strip atmosphere at some point during your getaway. One of the many great things about Vegas is the city’s proximity to beautiful natural wonders.

Take a drive under thirty minutes outside Las Vegas and you’ll find the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area. The outdoor lover will have the chance to hike, rock climb, and explore the golden Mojave Desert.

The Hoover Dam is also worth the drive. You have the option of taking a guided tour of the dam to fully understand the architecture and history of it all.
