Las Vegas Mystery Adventure Tours
Looking for a very unique, interactive way for your family (older children and up)to enjoy an affordable day in Las Vegas? The Mystery Adventure allows your family to be on a team of sleuths as you collect and decipher codes, explore the crime scenes, and travel to real locations. If you have ever wondered what it would be like to be a detective, a private I, or a crime scene investigator then the mystery adventure tours is for you!
When you arrive at the "Mystery Inn", the excitement begins almost immediately. You are first given a mystery letter and are given a briefing on "mystery investigation". The mystery adventure is really good at pulling the minds of all of the "investigators" together. You will need to share all of your vital clues, and add collective team input to figure out all of the baffling clues.
Traps, confusing crime scenes, and secret codes really make this a challenging tour for the whole family. Max, will be your funny (and sometimes helpful) guide / driver. If your team is clever enough, you just may find a few treasures along the way! Approximately 4-8 people will be on your team, and you will be taken to four different locations before the mystery is over (or solved!). It's a truly one of a kind experience.
The Mystery Adventure In Las Vegas really brings your family together in a very unique way! You have to come together as a team in a way that you may have never shared before. If everything goes as planned, your family will walk away from the Mystery Adventure as if you have just solved the crime from a CSI episode. The Mystery Adventure in Las Vegas is on of those hidden gem family attractions that is thoroughly enjoyed by the vast majority of eager participants.

Missouri Destinations - St. Louis Zoo
Growing up in the mid west I always thoroughly enjoyed visiting the St. Louis Zoo. As a family, we would have yearly vacations to Six Flags in Eureka Missouri, so a stop at the St. Louis Zoo was a common event along the way.
Zoo's have always seemed to have an appeal for people of all ages. From infant children still in their strollers, to elderly seniors marveling at all of the beauty that all of the zoo's exotic animals have to offer. The beauty of wildlife is not an appreciation that is outgrown as the years pass by. If anything, the mystery of all of the world's inhabitants only grows with age. It is absolutely astonishing how each of the world's animals serve a definite purpose in a delicate global ecosystem.
The St. Louis Zoo in Missouri is well known for how well they care for their animals, and their habitats are simulated in precision detail to create one of the most comfortable and familiar climates as possible for their animals. While it's true that the animals don't get to roam freely around the zoo, I at least take comfort in knowing that I don't have to watch natures food chain in progress! lol
Till this day (and probably why my parents took me to the zoo so often) zoo's are one of the cheapest forms of entertainment that you can take your family to. The St. Louis Zoo, one of the nation's highest rated zoo's, remains one of the top tourist destinations in the United States. Some of the zoo activities include :

Las Vegas Skydiving - Free To Watch
Have you always been compelled to skydive, but could never find the nerve to take the plunge? One block East of Las Vegas Boulevard on Convention Center Drive, you can watch (for free) other thrill seekers that want to feel what its like to actually feel the rush of skydiving.
You may even work up enough nerve to try it for yourself! Its a lot of fun to watch the action, but the chance to experience what its like to be in a free fall may be too much to pass up. It is a little less intimidating because you are floating in a wind tunnel rather than falling from 15,000 feet! If you feel comfortable enough doing an indoor skydive, then maybe you just may want to take it to the next level and jump out of an actual plane and experience the ultimate experience! This is definitely an experience that you will never forget.
Las Vegas vacations has many free attractions, and destinations to keep you entertained for days without spending too much of your hard earned cash.
Las Vegas skydiving is open 10:00 AM - 10:00 PM on 200 Convention Center Drive.
Need some help during your vacation to Las Vegas? Here is everything you need to know! Vegas attraction tips, destination advice, hotel recommendations, and more.

Flamingo Hilton Wildlife Habitat - Free Las Vegas
I have had the pleasure to travel to Las Vegas several times for a little gambling, shows, and nightlife entertainment. Just letting yourself be taken away in all of the glamor and glitz of the entertainment capital of the world is a fun and exciting way to release the stress of everyday life.
Since I don't have a "limitless bankroll", it's always nice to be aware of some of the fabulously entertaining FREE activities that Las Vegas has to offer. Since I had already set aside my "gambling money, and cash that I have already dedicated to be spent on self indulgence, I set out to find some cheap or free things to do in Vegas.
I didn't have to look long or hard to find some unique and interesting entertainment. We were staying at the Flamingo in the heart of the strip, and directly behind the Flamingo is the Flamingo Hilton Wildlife Habitat. 15 acres of gorgeous waterfalls, penguins, flamingos, swans, and even Penguins (yes penguins!) have habitat controlled areas to call their home. The price of admission is free, and its a good place to take your children and have a great time admiring exotic wildlife in the middle of the desert!
My family easily spent 1 1/2 hours just relaxing, and enjoying the wildlife habitat. The animal habitat is open 24 hours, its FREE, and their is no waiting time. Its hard to beat free, and the Flamingo Hilton Wildlife Habitat is a wonderful (family oriented) way to spend some of your vacation in Las Vegas. Book Your Vacation At The Flamingo In Las Vegas
Las Vegas has so many things to do and see, but its always nice to take a step back from all of the high engergy, fast paced vacation destinations that Vegas has to offer. The wildlife habitat at the Flamingo is a free and wonderful way to spend an hour or two on your Vegas vacation!
