At Red Rock Casino, Resort & Spa, book one of the Red Rock Adventures for a guided hike through dramatic canyons or a sunrise horseback ride alongside brilliantly colored sandstone cliffs. On your own, wander the trails at Springs Preserve to discover an acclaimed Mojave cactus and succulent collection, plus habitats for desert cottontails, gray foxes and gila monsters. Venture farther out when you hop on a Grand Canyon Tour Company bus for a classic day trip. You’ll travel along historic Route 66 to jaw-dropping vistas including Mather Point and the rim walk to Yavapai Point. For a view from the bottom—specifically, from a wild and scenic Colorado River gorge—join a Black Canyon River Adventures raft tour. Keep your camera close for photo ops of bighorn sheep within the rugged landscape. Meanwhile, urban explorers can hook up with Las Vegas Walking Tours. On the “Fremont After Dark” route, guides dish out the Las Vegas backstory beneath the street’s famous glittering canopy. Or, spend a summer evening at a Dive-In Movie at Nuala Pool at Westin Lake Las Vegas. Grab a float and popcorn and remind yourself: It’s 100 percent possible that the kiss of moonlight on the surrounding lake will steal the show. GARDEN PARTY Lush wildlife habitats, garden-like settings for cocktails and cuisine, and blooms by the thousands carve out havens throughout the city. STROLL …past verdant islands and sparkling waterfalls at The Wildlife Habitat at The Flamingo Las Vegas, home to whisper-pink Chilean flamingos. SIP …a Vanilla Rose, swirling flavored vodka with grapefruit liqueur, at Encore’s Jardin. Cocktails play up the restaurant’s garden conservatory motif. SAVOR …lunch on the terrace of Monte Carlo’s Primrose, where fresh herbs and veggies add a pop of green to the gardeninspired plates. SELFIE Pose at the center of Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Gardens, where flowers by the thousands fashion Instagram-worthy seasonal displays.
