Activities for Rainy Days in Las Vegas

Las Vegas is a destination that many people crave for, so it offers activities that never stop. Believe me, even when the weather doesn't cooperate, you can find alternatives to enjoy some of the best things to do in Las Vegas. From limousine rides to a virtual tour of the local attractions, a Michael Jackson tribute and a variety of comedy, magic and cultural shows, this city doesn't sleep even when it's underwater.

In fact, some people visit the city exclusively to explore the Titanic exhibit, which houses most of the artefacts recovered from the wreck. Another alternative is the wind tunnels, which allow you to experience the adrenaline rush of Las Vegas. Here's a list of all the activities you can take advantage of when the weather is bad.

Limo rides in Las Vegas offer a dazzling panorama. You can immerse yourself in a bubble of luxury and comfort and take in all the major attractions without worrying about transport or the weather.

They are the perfect example that on rainy days you don't have to stay in your hotel and give up on seeing Las Vegas at night. Instead, get out and take advantage of the situation. You can choose the places you want to see from the limousine yourself, but a visit to the casinos on the Boulevard full of neon signs is a must. I would also encourage you to walk past a hotel from the Middle Ages while toasting in the limousine with your family or friends.

Compared to other luxury experiences, it is relatively affordable, with limousines starting at €510 for eight people. The price usually includes the scenic ride, transfers to and from the hotel, photographs to immortalise every moment and a bottle of champagne.

If it's not possible to get out and enjoy adventure and nature activities in Las Vegas, you can always immerse yourself in a virtual journey that will take you there. Suspend yourself in mid-air, spin over the mountainous landscapes and take your adrenaline to the limit by booking tickets for Las Vegas FlyOver, an immersive experience over the Grand Canyon, Lake Tahoe and other unmissable natural scenery.

This activity lasts approximately thirty minutes and every second will provide you with magical yet realistic sensations. As the ride progresses, you'll be shaken by special effects including sounds, scents, movement, textures and weather simulators of fog and wind.

Forget the bad weather at a comedy magic show starring the famous Gerry McCambridge, who will amaze you with his mind-reading skills. Performed since 2005, this show is rated as one of the best shows in Las Vegas because of its ability to connect with the audience. It is also interactive and offers amazing demonstrations of intuition and perception.

You will leave the room without understanding how Gerry gets data from the participants as if he knows them. During the show he also often shares his personal story of self-improvement, which adds a touch of emotion to the performance.

The Natural History Museum in Las Vegas is another indoor attraction that's sure to keep you entertained for a second. It's impossible to get bored in its corridors as it offers dinosaur exhibits, including life-size animatronics and fossil specimens. As you walk through the corridors, other extinct species such as ichthyosaurs and other sea creatures are likely to come to life.

It is divided into two floors and, beyond the dinosaurs, you'll find mummies and objects that belonged to ancient civilisations. You'll also get a close-up look at **Nevada'**s ecosystems, where you can touch rocks and explore geological phenomena. Additionally, I encourage you to take the opportunity to learn about the founding of the city or enjoy special activities in the planetarium.

Venture out to a comedy show and enjoy an evening with a difference, where the laughs and entertainment will not be lacking. Las Vegas brings together the best comedians in the country, usually for late night shows. The only rule is to let yourself go and enjoy the jokes and energy that characterises these events.

There are different options, but among the favourites is the Comedy Club, for which you should book tickets in advance. It's one of Planet Hollywood' s best shows and takes place inside the V Theatre. It revolves around a stand-up routine, where they tell jokes and anecdotes about everyday life, relationships, pop culture and personal experiences.

Alternatively, you can buy tickets to the LA Comedy Club, where you'll laugh out loud and experience a night of entertainment at the Stratosphere Hotel and Casino. Of course, you'll enjoy improv sets and different styles of comedy.

Michael Jackson's legacy is immortalised, in fact in Las Vegas you can take advantage of a concert featuring the King of Pop's greatest hits. You'll enjoy about an hour of music, acting and dancing, and you'll be able to move to the beat of Thriller as you relive his iconic dance moves, with an impersonation that will make you think you've got Michael himself in front of you.

It is an emotional and charismatic experience where you will enjoy his work surrounded by other people who share the same admiration for the artist. You'll find this type of show in different parts of Las Vegas, but the most reputable is at the Tropicana Hotel and Casino, located on the strip. It's definitely one of the best events in town, attracting fans and even casual listeners.

To take shelter from the bad weather you can also buy tickets to Madame Tussauds Museum. This worldwide chain offers an unforgettable experience, where every corridor is full of fun surprises. You can see wax replicas of fictional characters and iconic figures from politics, art and music.

Elvis Presley is the King of Rock and Roll and, of course, he is located in the central part of the museum, so you can have your photo taken with his wax version. You can also find statues of Rihanna, Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, George Clooney and more. Another attraction of this building is the Marvel 4D Experience, which allows you to become a character from the multiverse, take on Loki and team up with your favourite heroes. You will have powers to help you overcome obstacles built with amazing special effects.

At the end of the experience you can take a souvenir photo with the Marvel characters. And there's another multi-dimensional experience known as 7D Carnival, a carnival-themed game with sound effects, scents, textures and fog.

Count's Kustoms or 'Car Madness' is a famous TV show that attracts car fanatics. On a rainy day you can visit the film set and take a look at the collection of cars belonging to its creator, Danny Koker. This includes a Lamborghini Countach, a Cadillac Hearse Limo, a GT 350 Fastback and an 81 Corvette, among others.

You can take as many photographs as you like of the classic cars and discover the history of the series, as well as the curation work behind each vehicle collected. It's a unique opportunity that's a far cry from other popular attractions, ideal forfamily plans.

In the entertainment and leisure capital of the world, you can't miss a theatre show. Among the variety of options is Vegas The Show, which takes place at the stunning Saxe Theater at Planet Hollywood. This production includes music and dancing, as well as special effects and visuals that will take you through the cultural history of the city. In fact, by the end of the show, you'll understand how it became a vibrant and wasteful city.

It's one of the most glamorous musical numbers, featuring icons such as Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis Jr. The show's chorus and dancers will dazzle you with exotic performances full of energy and charisma. Buy Vegas The Show tickets in advance to avoid queues at the box office and guarantee around 90 minutes of fun.

Another alternative to stop your itinerary during rainy days in Las Vegas is to consider buying tickets to the Shark Reef Aquarium. Inside you will meet around 2000 submerged species in aquatic habitats and live an unforgettable visual experience. You are allowed to touch some of them under the supervision of authorised staff.

The pools of this aquarium are home to hundreds of angelfish, jellyfish, crabs, stingrays and sharks. In addition, Komodo dragons and other eye-catching reptiles can be seen. This fascinating experience will delight you with a tour through the tunnels of the building to enjoy the sensation of immersing yourself in the sea.

The story of the Titanic that rocked the world continues to be a topic of interest, sparking theories and conspiracies. Booking tickets for the Titanic Las Vegas exhibit will take you on a journey back in time through more than 250 recovered items. The experience uses realism as a resource, thanks to replicas of the cabins and a copy of the central staircase.

The ship sank in 1912 and its remains lie 3,800 metres deep in the Atlantic Ocean. The closest you will get to its history is in this Titanic exhibition in Las Vegas, as the rest of the existing pieces are distributed among museums and collectors around the world.

Among the objects you will be able to see are:

• The largest piece recovered from the ship's structure.
• An unopened bottle of champagne.
• The ticket of one of the passengers.
• Luggage, porcelain tableware and whistles.

If you are a fan of adrenaline, you can enjoy it by the ton in a wind tunnel while it's raining. This experience guarantees you a flight with speeds of up to 150 km per hour, inside a safe cabin and with the necessary equipment. You will discover the sensation of jumping out of an aeroplane and you will be introduced to the world of skydiving, while staying in a safe zone.

It is unthinkable that you could fly through the air on a rainy day, but Las Vegas defies the obstacles and makes it happen. But remember: to book a wind tunnel experience in Las Vegas you can't have medical conditions or be pregnant.

Escape rooms are an excellent indoor activity, and in Las Vegas you'll find a wide variety of options. You'll find themed rooms, as well as a host of puzzles and challenges to overcome in order to complete the main mission. As you progress, the level of difficulty will increase and you'll progress from simple puzzles to more complex mazes.

It is ideal if you plan to visit Las Vegas with children and want to share a family activity. It is done in groups and involves moving from room to room for an hour and a half until you find the exit by solving puzzles. Highlights include The Escape Room, where you can choose from a 1950s prison, a world invasion and more.

Alternatively, you can book The Cabin escape room, which offers an experience where you'll have to piece together clues and crack codes to get out of a deserted cabin.

To stimulate your emotions and abilities you have to book a visit to Fantasy Lab, a space with 7 interactive areas that will test your five senses. Its immersive and futuristic rooms awaken your subconscious to evoke fear, happiness, love, sadness, nostalgia, madness and other moods.

Specifically, the spaces are Labyrinth, Circus, Stars, Nightmare, Kaleidoscope, Insomnia and Illumination. Inside you'll find virtual reality challenges, models of mythological creatures, simulators, sci-fi games and replica spaceships.

Las Vegas is impressive even on rainy days. While a visit to the tallest building offers outdoor attractions, it can also be an interesting plan to take shelter from the weather. Venture inside to learn all about the Stratosphere Tower, while taking advantage of the indoor platform that offers breathtaking views, even on a cloudy day.

Inside you'll also find exhibits about the tower's history that are great for hanging out. You can also discover interesting details about the architectural structure and take a tour to learn about its operation, renovations and the recent addition of adventure attractions.
