Bellagio Conservatory
The Bellagio is one of the most iconic hotels/casinos on the Las Vegas Strip — and for good reason.
The Bellagio Conservatory is a 14,000-square-foot glass-domed atrium filled with stunning horticultural displays that change with the seasons. Each transformation features thousands of blooming flowers, lush plants, and whimsical structures designed to celebrate the season’s themes and global traditions.
And best of all, the conservatory is free! No tickets are reservations are needed. Just walk right in!
The Conservatory has four exhibits each year: Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter. Click here to see what their current exhibit is.
Plus, it’s right next to the Bellagio Fountains, so it’s two awesome sights in one trip!
p.s. don't miss the world's largest chocolate fountain located in the cafe right next to the conservatory!
Bellagio Fountains
My kids are always amazed when they see the fountains at the Bellagio. The fountains shoot water up to 460 feet in the air — it's quite a sight. Plus each show is choregoraphed to a different song. The roate the songs, so you can stay for sevearl shows and it'll be different each time. Each show lasts about 3–5 minutes — just the right amount of time to hold kid's attention.
The Bellagio Fountains are of course free to watch. You can see them:
Monday – Friday:
Every 30 minutes from 3 PM to 7 PM
Every 15 minutes from 7 PM to midnight
Saturdays, Sundays & Holidays:
Every 30 minutes from 12 PM to 7 PM
Every 15 minutes from 7 PM to midnight

Museum of Illusions
We've been to Museum of Illusions several times with my kids and they always have a blast.
There are countless illusions and activities at the exhibit that are entertaining for both kids and adults.
There's also great photo ops throughout the museum that had just the right amount of silliness that my kids thought these were so fun.
Plan on two hours at the museum to enjoy all the activities and illusions.
The Museum of Illusions is located between the Cosmopolitan and The Shops at Crystals. Kids under 5 are free.

Arte Museum
The Arte Museum is seriously amazing. It was completely fascinating for both my kids and us adults. You'll journey through different immersive rooms, each with their own sensory experiences (each even has their own scent!)
It's on the more expensive side for a museum, but it really was so cool to experience.
The Arte Museum is located between the Cosmopolitan and The Shops at Crystals.

Neon Museum
The Neon Museum is technically not right on the Las Vegas Strip, but super close and is all about the Las Vegas Strip — or should I say the Las Vegas strip of the past. At the Neon Museum you'll find retired signs from the Las Vegas strip!
Pro Tip: Book a session at the Neon Museum right before dusk so you can see the signs in the day time and at night!

Tournament of Kings
If you're looking for a fun show to take kids I recommend the Tournament of Kings! Located at the Exaclibur the Tournament of Kings is perfect for the entire family. It's definitely more on the cheesy side, but that's why it's perfect for kids!
Plus, at the Tournament of Kings you are served dinner — so it's a two for one, dinner and a show combined! The traditional dinner is chicken + potatoes + roll + corn, but you can also special order a pasta meal for kids (or if you're vegetarian). Keep in mind you must special order the pasta meal beforehand, you are not guaranteed to receive it if you just ask there.
