Downtown, on Fremont Street, is the older, cheaper Vegas. Just outside the city, Red Rock Canyon and the Valley of Fire have bright red sandstone and hiking, and the Hoover Dam holds back the Colorado River. Zion, the Grand Canyon and Death Valley are all within a day's drive.\r\n\r\nIn the north, Reno is a smaller casino city near Lake Tahoe, and the vast Great Basin has ghost towns, hot springs and Great Basin National Park. Give Las Vegas two or three days, then hire a car for the parks.
