EnquireThe desert city of Las Vegas is America’s gambling capital and a tourist hotspot known for its extensive collection of huge, elaborately-themed casino resorts, many of which are among the largest and most luxurious in the world. The Venetian is one of the most iconic examples of such a property and boasts a mind-blowing variety of facilities and attractions right in the heart of the city. The impressive, large-scale design is inspired by the beautiful Italian city of Venice and includes life-size replicas of many of the city’s top attractions.
The Venetian is actually part of a combined hotel complex and, along with its counterpart The Palazzo, they form the world’s second largest hotel. For accommodation, there are no fewer than 4,049 suites in the main 36-storey tower. Each suite comes with a separate living area and bedroom, along with an en-suite bathroom fashioned from Italian marble. Suites are very well appointed, lavishly decorated and handsomely furnished throughout. There are plenty of in-room amenities to make use of and some of the rooms are almost twice the size of other Vegas hotel rooms. The Venetian is centrally located along the strip and thus the suites afford stunning views of some of the city’s many other casino resorts including Treasure Island, The Palazzo, The Mirage and Harrah’s.
A casino resort on a massive scale, The Venetian offers a wealth of on-site facilities and attractions to suit just about everybody. There are four theatres staging a wide range of shows from big-name stars and entertainment acts throughout the year, as well as several bars and the Asian-themed Tao Nightclub. There are nearly three dozen eateries ranging from a British gastropub and a traditional Italian pizzeria, to a high-end steakhouse and a casual seafood restaurant. The Grand Canal Shoppes is the hotel’s own premier shopping destination, with more than 160 stores from many top brands. Perhaps the resort’s most unique attraction is the Gondola Rides. This experience offers the chance to ride in an authentic gondola steered by a professional gondolier along the ‘Grand Canal’ past the hotel’s many shops, restaurants and attractions.
There’s also Madame Tussauds, featuring lifelike waxworks of popular celebrities and well-known historical characters, and the minus5º Ice Experience, a year-round winter wonderland carved out of ice. Of course, the Venetian has its own casino, which is one of the largest and most extravagant in Las Vegas. It offers a rewarding loyalty programme, complimentary lessons for beginners and an extensive collection of slot machines and gaming tables. For relaxation, there are several swimming pools, as well as the Canyon Ranch Spa + Fitness centre. Encompassing some 134,000 square feet, it’s one of the largest day spas in the world and offers over 150 services.
Children are welcome and connecting suites can be requested, along with cribs and additional rollaway beds, although note these are subject to availability. Although there is no on-site childcare, the hotel can provide a list of independent childcare companies in the city.
We had such a good holiday. You did a fantastic job!
The house in Marrakesh was ridiculous. We effectively had it to ourselves. The accommodation was borderline palatial.
I actually think that the time we had in Marrakesh was sufficient. We could potentially have done a day by a pool but I think we’d done enough souk-ing by the end of Day Two.
The hotel in the mountains was a shade more rustic than I was expecting, but all great fun. Stunning views. The guide / mule / cook team were excellent and our guide (Hassan) tailored the treks to our capabilities well. He was superb, and really made an effort with the kids. The second and third day of trekking were particularly good. Such an adventure for the kids.
All the logistics worked seamlessly. Every aspect went like clockwork. Top marks. The advice on tipping was also much appreciated (I hate thinking that I’m getting mugged off or am potentially not giving enough…).
From my seven-year-old son:
I thought it was GREAT. The food was amazing and the culture was very interesting. My favourite bit was scrambling up rocks in the Atlas Mountains.
In retrospect, I’d probably do the trip in reverse. Flopping on the roof terrace after the rigours of the mountains would have been even more satisfying.

We just wanted to thank you for an absolutely amazing holiday. Everything went exactly to plan and we were blown away with the quality of the guides, transport and accommodation. The itinerary was perfect for our family with a great mix of guided and free days and the different destinations complemented each other well. We will definitely be using Tourdust again for our next trip! Particular highlights were the Ha Long Bay cruise, Hanoi, and the morning cycle tour in Siam Reap
