The Punk Rock Museum is located just off the Strip and is filled to the brim with hundreds, if not thousands, of artifacts that shaped the genre. Take a look inside!

I took a rip on Las Vegas' best zipline, which sends riders roaring down the neon canyon of Fremont Street. See what it's like, here!

FlyLinq is the only zipline on the Strip, cheaper than SlotZilla, and a strong value albeit a less scenic ride than you get downtown.

I've taken 2 "Happy Half Hour" spins on the High Roller, which is an upgraded ticket that gives you access to an open bar during your ride. Is it worth the cash outlay?

Check out one of the few mini golf courses on the Las Vegas Strip - It's a visual stunner.

You likely have a Topgolf in your hometown, but it's nothing like the one in Las Vegas. In addition to golf, this version has 5 bars, video poker, hundreds of TVs, and even a 2-level swimming pool.

You may know Zak from his hit TV show "Ghost Adventures". Well, he has a museum in Las Vegas where he displays his haunted "oddities" accumulated from around the world. If you have an interest in the paranormal and macabre, put this activity on your itinerary.

Walk below an oceanic oasis in the middle of the desert. The Shark Reef Aquarium at Mandalay Bay offers some stunning visuals, interactive exhibits, and opportunities to learn!

The St. Thomas ghost town site was abandoned when Lake Mead filled in behind the newly built Hoover Dam. For decades, the site sat 70 feet below the surface of the reservoir, however, the town has re-emerged as Lake Mead shrinks. Guests are now invited to wander through the ruins, which is an eerie experience.

Hoover Dam is an absolute marvel to see in person. I recently stopped by to explore the structure and took a guided tour (which I recommend!).

A short drive from Las Vegas, Valley of Fire State Park offers an abundance of mesmerizing visuals, hiking opportunities, and photo opportunities. Hiking enthusiasts should prioritize a visit.

Even as a non-shopper myself, I sincerely enjoyed the opportunities to explore the shops found in the Arts District.

Home to row after row of vintage pinball machines that span decades, the Pinball Hall of Fame is a cost-effective way to spend a few hours in Las Vegas!

Omega Mart is the premier attraction within the Area15 complex and appears externally to be a simple supermarket... There is much more than meets the eye, however.

Museum Fiasco "Cluster" is a choreographed light show at Area15 that is built to impress.

Illuminarium serves up educational video content using projection technology on 360-degree floor to ceiling screens. Take a peek inside the high-tech theater!

A hang glider attraction at Area15, Haley's Comet sends riders on a loop around the sprawling complex's ceiling - Is it worth doing?

Wink World is a visual attraction that offers "portals to the infinite". I recently swung by to gauge if it lived up to the hype.

What the heck is Area15? It's a question I get all the time - Let me take you inside one of the best non-gaming attractions in Las Vegas!

Step inside the paintings of Van Gogh at Crystals in front of Aria. This 30-minute audio/visual presentation is sure to be of interest to the artistic folks among us.

STRAT's SkyPod Observation Deck offers an unreal view of Las Vegas, and thrill seekers will love the 3 rides atop the tower that are as cost-effective as they are enjoyable.

Located steps away from the Fremont Street Experience, The Mob Museum provides an education on organized crime's impact on Las Vegas and the broader United States. I found it to be absurdly interesting, and well worth visiting.

Strap into your seat and take a simulated flight over the western US, Canadian Rocky Mountains, or Iceland at FlyOver Vegas.

Take a look inside!

Easily one of my favorite attractions in Las Vegas, Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition has hundreds of artifacts recovered from the wreck site on display. They also do a marvelous job of tying passenger stories into the presentation, highlighting the heaviness of the tragedy.

Follow the steps of Howard Carter's exploration of "The Boy King's" tomb. Although there are no authentic artifacts on display (which I found to be disappointing), the exhibit does a nice job of educating guests on ancient Egypt.

The Bonanza Gift Shop claims to be the "World's Largest" and I can confirm, it's sprawling. Packed with inexpensive gifts, souvenirs, and collectibles, Bonanza is a tourist attraction in and of itself!
