Coming to Vegas

tank41 · 02/04/2009, 08:35 PM

Hello everyone. I was just curious. I will be coming to Vegas in a couple weeks and was just curious if there was any shops worth checking out that are close to the strip or in the downtown area. Something that is not to far from things. We will be using the shuttle and bus for transportation. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Make sure to visit the shark tank at Mandalay Bay. There's also a great tank in the Forum Shops attached to Ceasar's Palace. It's near the Cheesecake factory and during the week (I think at 2:30) they will give you a behind the scenes tour of the tank.

2 other places to check out. One at the check in area of the the Mirage behind the desk they have a huge display tank. The second is the Rainforest Cafe at MGM. It is near the lions display which is is well worth seeing. I believe they let the lions out at 11:00 am. They are very active then. Enjoy Vegas and leave some money for me I will be there in March

I agree with the above recommendations but unfortunately there are not any fish stores close to the strip or downtown. There are a couple of good shops farther from the strip though. Send a PM if you want more info.
