YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

Las Vegas is known for casinos, gambling, and the Stripโ€”but what if you don't gamble? In this episode of Rise & Dine, we're exploring a completely different side of Las Vegas that both visitors and locals can enjoy. We start our day aboard the Desert Princess, an authentic Mississippi-style paddlewheel boat cruising the beautiful waters of Lake Mead. Just 35 minutes from the Strip, this relaxing cruise offers stunning desert scenery, affordable food and cocktails, and a unique perspective of one of Nevada's most beautiful destinations. Next, we head to the iconic Hoover Dam to explore the inner workings of one of America's greatest engineering achievements. From the massive turbines to the incredible views of the Colorado River, this stop is a must-see for anyone visiting Southern Nevada. We finish our day at Lake Las Vegas, enjoying a delicious meal while taking in the resort-style atmosphere that feels worlds away from the hustle and bustle of the Strip. If you're looking for things to do in Las Vegas besides gambling, this itinerary proves there is so much more to Vegas than casinos. ๐Ÿ“ Lake Mead ๐Ÿ“ Hoover Dam ๐Ÿ“ Lake Las Vegas Subscribe for weekly food and travel adventures as we explore the best of Las Vegas and beyond.
