Best View on the Las Vegas Strip
What are the best views in Las Vegas?
Las Vegas is inarguably beautiful, and we’re not just saying that because we’re biased. Vegas is ideal for those who love the majestic scenery of the desert, the lights of the Las Vegas Strip, or just remarkably good weather. No matter what your desired scenery, there’s one thing that is for sure. There’s a lot to look at in Las Vegas.
Luckily for you, we’re breaking down some of our favorite views and the best places to soak them up. These are the spots where you can take in a sunset, marvel at all the neon and enjoy Las Vegas.
High Roller at the LINQ Promenade
The High Roller was designed to provide Las Vegas lovers with some of the most exceptional views in the Las Vegas valley. The High Roller is the world’s tallest observation wheel. The 360-degree views (and the height) are heart-stopping.
One revolution of the wheel takes approximately 30 minutes–plenty of time to take in all of the views. Tickets are available for both daytime and evenings, which means twice as many views to enjoy. Happy half-hour tickets, offered between 12 pm and 6:59 pm allow you to enjoy a 20-minute ride an open bar inside the cabin.
