while your there you can go to gameworks that place has a lot of arcade game to name a few mario karts house of the dead ect. mgm grand circus circus that all of the casino's i remember from my time at vegas
 
I suggest going to See's Candy. They have them in several malls there. Their fudge is the best. I also suggest going to the Adventuredome if you like theme parks. The Hash House has amazingly large portions of food. Skip Claim Jumper, their food there is awful. There should be a Serendipity 3 which has pretty good ice cream from what I hear. The Mini Grand Prix is a somewhat small place, but there are go karts. I also suggest Laser Quest for some good laser tag, that's where I played when I lived there. Oh and be warned that it is EXTREMELY hot there. Wear lots of sunscreen. I haven't been to most of the casinos since I was a kid and I don't gamble, I believe I did once, and I played bingo once (My cousin's idea of a fun birthday party...she's 23 and slightly younger than me). Oh yeah and almost everything there is overpriced LOL. Don't go to Johnny Rockets for burgers, it's a huge rip off. Oh and if you order pizza, get it from Papa Johns, not Pizza Hut or anywhere else, except one place which I recommend which is Peter Piper Pizza (which used to be Pistol Petes), they have awesome pizza and an arcade there...I spent a good amount of my childhood there...good times, good times. If they still have the tic tac toe game, that one used to give the most tickets with little effort. You can also check out FAO Schwartz, which is a pretty big toy store, although they will rip you off, it's still nice to visit. I don't know if they're still doing tiger shows (I never did anything touristy in Vegas), but you can see them at The Mirage. There is a shark reef at The Mandalay Bay. I think there is an indoor skydiving thing, and my cousin loves to go to Skyzone which is an indoor trampoline thing where you jump on a bazillion trampolines that are all connected. You can also tour the Ethel M Chocolate factory. I believe there is the M&M Factory there too (I was supposed to go one year for my birthday, but we didn't go for some strange reason, ended up going to the Lead Discovery Museum, which is an interesting way to wast time). I think you can even tour the Ocean Spray factory (did that one year for school, got free cranberry juice taste testing :P). The Fashion Show Mall is on the strip and they have some good places to eat like California Pizza Kitchen. I would avoid Teavana like the plague because they will try to sell you $300 worth of tea and tea products (they tried that with me and I told them where to stick it and sell me the damn tea for my friend's present as he is not willing to tell them to fuck off like I am XD). You can also tour Red Rock Canyon (did that for school a few times actually...surprisingly they gave me the same workbook each year, it was easy to fill out if you memorized the answers). Oh and if you wanna see a show I suggest seeing something from Cirque de Soliel, I saw Ka and it was really good! Le Reve was pretty cool, not as good as Ka though. Las Vegas Outlet Center is pretty cool for a mall, none of the malls are really bad. Anyway not kidding, since you're going in the summer it's going to be freaking hot, like over 115 F (which I believe is around 47 C from the calculator).

    Just be careful, if trump ends up winning and using project 2025 America might really change...for the worse.
