Traveling to Las Vegas - a wheelchair paradise!





Yes -  you read it here first! For long Las Vegas is known as the gambler's paradise. I know it for a fact that being in a wheelchair will not stop you from enjoying this city as much. Mainly because most of the attractions - if not all-  are easily accessible from the minute you step out of the plane, to rolling down the Strip or any other activity you enjoy.
Most of the hotels are connected so there is no need to step out on the street. If you need to, each crossroad has a bridge with an elevator that helps you cross the road avoiding going through the traffic.

The hotels offer rental wheelchairs, in case something happens to yours. There is 24-hour wheelchair assistance too - so you can roll in peace.

There are a lot of activities you can do in Vegas. Besides gambling and  the shows that are offered in different arenas there are many cool outdoor activities to choose from:

The high roller observation wheel - you get to ride in the world’s highest Ferris wheel and have a 360 degrees view of Las Vegas. The best time would be during sunset,  that way you can have that day and night experience of Vegas in a single ride, topped with the mesmerizing sunset.

The zip lining at the Rio hotel – This is a sitting zip lining! Ziplining was on my bucket list for such a long time and I thought I had to give it up... but not until I got to Vegas!

The roller coaster at the New York Hotel – This is not your normal roller coaster - this roller coaster wraps around the New York Hotel! There is a lift that brings you to the loading dock of the roller coaster, and there is a specific car where it is easier to transfer.

Paris hotel viewing deck – If you would like to enjoy Vegas at night I would suggest getting a ticket to the Eiffel tower in Las Vegas. You will have a comprehensive view and you can enjoy the Bellagio Hotel Fountain light shows from the top of the Eiffel tower!
