The Top 5 Things to Do at Paris Las Vegas

A half-scale replica of the original Eiffel Tower in Paris, France, the Vegas version commands your attention as you arrive at the resort. An elevator takes you 46 stories above the Las Vegas strip at the Eiffel Tower Experience, where you are greeted by 360-degree views of the Las Vegas valley. Arrive there at dusk—the sunsets are hard to beat and the fountains of Bellagio will dazzle you down below. The bright lights of the desert on all sides have led this to become a popular spot for wedding proposals and ceremonies. The attraction is open all day until midnight with prices being slightly more expensive when the sun goes down. Your elevator ride up will be an informative one as elevator operators do their best to give you a crash course on the tower and the construction of the replica. 

At Beer Park at Paris Las Vegas, you get an opportunity to have an outdoor party while watching a few games and dancing. The bar/restaurant is situated above the Las Vegas strip, so you can see Las Vegas Boulevard and the Fountain of Bellagio. The beer selection is ample, the outdoor grill serves up casual snacks, and the smoker churns out delicious barbecue. To add to the experience, the space is surrounded by more than 30 TVs, community games, pool tables, and giant Jenga, as well as a small grassy lawn to lie out. The Beer Park is open daily at 11 a.m.  

The big-name shows are usually across the street at Bellagio and Caesars Palace or next door at Planet Hollywood. With that said, you'll still find plenty of great entertainment at Paris Las Vegas. It has hosted Jeff Civillico and his comedy/juggling show, Circus 1903 (a hilarious take on circus acts where you'll see hilarious puppet elephants in lieu of the real animals), and the hilarious show, "Sex Tips for Straight Women from a Gay Man," which is a bit edgy, so open minds are required and the ability to laugh at yourself is a must. To see what they currently have going on, check their site.
