hey everyone, I'm going on my first trip to Vegas on 25th May for 7 nights (eeek so excited!!) and wondered if anyone had any tips for tours around grand canyon/dam area? Is it best to book when I get there or are there trustworthy sites to visit now and book in advance?

Thanks

We've started on ours too So far DH and I have each got a $75 drinks credit at Times Square bar in NYNY and 2 x lunch buffets at Bellagio (I understand that they actually just give you a credit to use at any buffet, you just pay the difference aand you get to use the VIP line ). DH has also got 2 x Luxor buffets. I'm going to try and get the dinner for two at Tender and the $50 Monte Carlo dining credit and he's going for the dinner at Rock & Ritas. I bought $5 worth of chips last week so I'm now entitled to 4 rewards in 30 days. DH is going to do the same.

Such a fantastic rewards scheme and it'll no doubt work as M Life intended - last time we went we spent most of our time in Planet Hollywood, Flamingo and Caesar's - think we'll end up being M Life all the way this time seeing as that's where our free food and drinks are

My brother's trying for Ka tickets this week - the show tickets do seem to be the best value of all but DH really doesn't fancy any of the Cirque shows and I don't want to go enough to force him into it. Hoping to see Penn & Teller again this trip though, however this time we will not be walking to the Rio - need to remember that things are just very big, not close together :eek:

We'd already booked a package through lowcostusa for this year but next time we're planning on using our Virgin miles to upgrade to PE and assuming MyVegas is still going, we'll use our loyalty points for free rooms - very MSE!!

Same as you for tickets, and handy to know about the bellagio buffet, as would prefer dinner as opposed to lunch!!
We got 8 rewards between us, currently got:
2 Tickets to see 'Zarkana'
2 Tickets to BeeGees tribute act
2 Tickets to Tournament of the Kings
2 Tickets to see Criss Angel Believe
2 Bellagio Buffet lunchs
Dueling Pianos Monte Carlo
$75 credit dueling pianos NYNY
1 spare ready to grab something next month

Yes, the myVegas game is a pretty cool game, frustrating, but very cool!!
As of Next year, no matter how many chips you buy, it will be 3/30 days, no more extra rewards...

Also, i have a PDF doc which contains quite a few of the QR scans (for Viva myVegas) in Vegas (if you have the iPhone, Ipod or Ipad), then scanning these codes will give you extra goodies, and saves you walking up and down the strip trying to find the scans!
You can scan early if u know how to fake the location of your phone, but when you win rewards over points, u end up losing out!
PM me if you want to give me your email and i'll send u the doc... Just print it before you go, or save it onto your laptop or other device and scan from there

89 days for us today :-) we're a little quieter on the MyVegas front, I'm aiming to get 2 Bellagio Buffets (enough points but only on level 50 and its limited to 65 upwards) and something else, hubby will get some other food type credit I'd imagine. Am having a problem with my MLife account at the mo as it won't recognise my signing in credentials then when I follow the process to reset it says I'm already a member and I hit a brick wall. Frustrating.....
