We're trying to decide between O and Ka.
Jewels and I aren't gamblers, but we've been to Vegas several times for fun and/or conferences. We've been to a few Cirque shows, all good, some better than others.
I'm sure O is good, Ka is AWESOME. I watched a Modern Marvels or maybe Discovery Channel show about the Ka stage years ago. Seeing it in person was worth it. Really fun show and the stage itself is a character.
Michael Jackson One was good too. It kind of made me an MJ fan. I knew a lot of his songs just from general pop culture before hand, but that was a really entertaining show. They had a hologram of MJ perform Man in the Mirror, and it was super realistic.
Beatles LOVE was a lot of fun, it's almost "in the round" everything happening down in the middle of a circle, and they bring in some wild contraptions for their acrobatics. Music is pretty decent too.
Mystere was my least favorite, talented acrobats, but it was just weird. Story follows a grown ass man in a diaper pretending he's a baby, I found it off putting. We had front row mid level seats, I almost punched an acrobat, they shot out of the dark and rushed into my bubble out of my peripheral, there was suddenly someone in my face from out of the dark. My fight or flight made a fist, and I had my arm back and mid windup before I realized what was going on. I guarantee someone has been punched at that show before.
Absinthe was good, not something to take the kids to though. Don't get front row seat or aisle seat unless you're okay participating in the act. Acrobatics are on par with Cirque, but it's much more burlesque than theater.
If Bodies is still there, it was pretty cool. Depending on how well your kids would handle that kind of stuff. It's educational, and really interesting, but still a little Macabre to see plasticized cadavers disassembled and in all kinds of poses.
NY NY has a pretty big arcade in it and a roller coaster.
We enjoyed the Atomic Testing Museum, but teens might get bored.
The floral arrangements in the lobby of The Bellagio are worth checking out, and it's free.
Fountain in front of The Bellagio of course, we like to get reservations at Mon Ami Gabi on the patio, AMAZING food, great service, fun car and people watching, and a good view of The Bellagio fountains.
Blue Man Group is fun for all. They hand out ponchos at the door if your seats in the splash zone, but if you're a few rows back you should be safe. I'm sure teenagers would love Blue Man.
I usually like Penn & Teller, but I fell asleep at their show.
I thought Mandalay Bay's aquarium was over rated, but maybe I'm a aquarium snob.
The Rat Pack is Back was fun if you're into big band music. None of the actors look anything like the characters they're portraying, but they had the sounds and manerisims down. Small theater in Tuscany, we did the dinner and a show combo, had a good time, but Jewels and I were easily the youngest people in the audience.
I wish the Auto Collection at the Linq was still there. That was an awesome car collection.
All of the casinos/resorts have some kind of exhibit and they change from time to time. We saw Bodies in the Luxor but it may be something else now.
