Two Days in Las Vegas

Build My Vegas Trip

Answer 4 quick questions — we'll turn them into a real, day-by-day itinerary.

How many days are you in Vegas?

Or, plan it yourself

Two days is the minimum for Vegas to actually feel like a trip instead of a layover. Follow the one-day plan for day one, then use day two for the things that need more runway — a real dinner reservation, a proper spa visit, or a night that doesn't start until 11pm.

A resort spa massage room

Day two, morning

Sleep in, then ease into the day

Sleep in — you earned it. When you do get moving, this is the day for something that requires no rush: a full full-body massage at one of the resort spas, or a slow brunch somewhere off the main Strip drag.

A Las Vegas dayclub pool party

Day two, afternoon

Poolside, or somewhere air-conditioned

If pool season is in swing, a pool party eats the whole afternoon in the best way. If it's not, swap in shopping or one of the shorter museums so you're not standing in the sun.

A Cirque du Soleil-style acrobatic performance

Day two, evening

The show you actually wanted

Make this the night you book the show you actually wanted — a Cirque du Soleil production, a comedy club set, or a magic show if that's more your speed. Pair it with sushi or Italian beforehand rather than another steakhouse — two nights of the same cuisine gets old fast.

A packed Las Vegas nightclub dance floor

Day two, night

Go all in — you've got tomorrow to recover

This is the night to actually commit to a nightclub table or a longer bar crawl, since you've got the next morning to recover before flying out.
