    Nine Fine Irishmen

    Start with a pint at Nine Fine Irishmen. The pub was built in Ireland and shipped here, so it feels worlds away from the neon. Grab a Guinness while the local band tunes up for the 9 PM set.

  2. 16:34

    High Roller

    Walk north to the High Roller. This 550-foot Ferris wheel offers the best vantage point for the sun dipping below the horizon. Board a cabin for the 30 to 45 minute revolution to watch the light fade over the Strip.

  3. 17:19

    Bellagio Conservatory and Botanical Gardens

    End the evening at the Bellagio Conservatory and Botanical Gardens. The indoor gardens are always lit and beautifully arranged, providing a calm, floral contrast after the dark sky outside.

Local tip

The High Roller cabin is enclosed, so dress warmly even in summer. The Bellagio Conservatory is free to enter.
