cut three out of the bunch and, with their team mates, herd them to the other end of

the arena into a 12’ by 12’ pen – easy!

Grand Canyon West spreads over 9,000 acres with colorful views of deep canyon walls

separated by the Colorado River. The Hualapai Indian Nation owns the West Rim located

in Northwest Arizona and 120 miles east of Las Vegas, NV. The scenic route to the Grand

Canyon’s West Rim is through historical Henderson and Boulder City. The narrator will

point out views of interest and as the Coach crosses Hoover Dam, guests will have the

opportunity to take photos. Once at the Canyon, a Hop-On-Hop-Off shuttle system is

available to take guests to different viewing areas. The time frame for this part of the

tour is individualized, but the guest must return to the originating property in time for

departure to Las Vegas.

The Skywalk glass bridge suspends 4,000 ft above the Grand Canyon floor. The first

guest to walk out on the Skywalk was Buzz Aldrin, the first man to walk on the moon.

Also, during the ceremony, the first Native American in space, John Bennett Herrington,

led the Tribal Leaders to greet Buzz Aldrin at the apex of the walkway. Native American

Village hosts five authentic dwellings constructed by representatives of each Nation. The

Amphitheatre demonstrates live Native American performances from multiple tribes.

The shows are all day long and the theatre can seat approximately 250 guests.

3.00pm Depart the Grand Canyon and head for Las Vegas.

5.30pm Las Vegas is an internationally renowned major resort city for gambling, shopping and

fine dining and bills itself as The Entertainment Capital of the World. Las Vegas is a

popular setting for films and television programs. There are numerous outdoor lighting

displays on Fremont Street and elsewhere in the city.

From the beautiful mountains of Red Rock Canyon, the ski resort at Mount Charleston,

water sports at Lake Mead, to the glittering “Las Vegas Strip”, the city boasts something

for everyone!

The Sales Excellence Club guests will be staying at the Bellagio. To say that this is a flash

hotel would be the ultimate in understatements. Bellagio stands at 50 stories of pure

luxury and most view it as the most elegant on the Strip.

This AAA Five-Diamond award winning resort is framed by its most notable feature, the

Fountains of Bellagio. Traffic stops just to get a glimpse of the 9-acre, manmade lake

and the unique performance of dancing water synchronized to music. Not only is the

Strip’s congestion a common occurrence, but the fountains are recognized by many

fans of Ocean Eleven, Ocean’s Thirteen, 2012, and the Hangover movies. Many scenes

use the fountains 1,203 nozzles breaking the water surface and lights illuminating the

hotel tower to hues of purple or red-white-and-blue.

Beyond the entrance is the living heart of the resort, the Conservatory. Fresh flowers

and foliage create the holidays and seasons, providing the perfect backdrop for visitor

photos. All is under the protection of a dome atrium under greenhouse glass. Bellagio

guests will be overwhelmed by the Conservatory’s beauty and abundance of color,

fragrance, volume and texture.

A walk through the lobby and casino, a guest will find another striking feature of the

Bellagio situated along the hotel’s watery shoreline. The retail village is known as Via

Bellagio. The restaurants and shops represent some of the most exclusive names

around including Tiffany and Co., Hermes, Armani, and Le Cirque. Detailed tile work,

sculptures, and walls of cascading chocolate complete the artistic endeavors that

symbolize this grand hotel.

lights, cruise down the famed "Strip" with its blaze of Neon lights, and its colourful

history......

Participants can enjoy the sights and the stories on their own personalized tour of the Las

Vegas Strip. Our limo drivers are at our disposal while champagne flows and we cruise the

Strip, visiting casinos of our choice, stopping for a bite to eat if desired, checking out the

many clubs, or generally having the time of their lives. Return to the hotel 11.00pm.

The Strip may sparkle and the neon may shine, but nowhere in Las Vegas will you find a

more dazzling spectacle than Bali Hai. Designed by Lee Schmidt and Brian Curley in 2000,

the Bali Hai course is a worthy namesake of the famous Indonesian land of

enchantment. The lush surroundings include seven-acres of opulent water features, a

total of 4,000 trees with 2,500 stands of towering palms and 100,000 Bali Hai Golf Club

tropical plants.

Entering through ornate double doors, guests are transported to a Balinese paradise,

where attention to detail and dining enjoyment are immediately apparent – setting the

stage for our Vintage Vegas at Bali Hai Dinner.

7.30pm Naturally no Vintage Vegas Gala Dinner would be complete without show girls and

tonight our guests are greeted and escorted by two of these exotic creatures to our pre

dinner drinks reception. As waiters serve drinks and canapés there is plenty of time for

photos before we are escorted to dinner.

none other than Frank Sinatra.

York” Frank takes it home and leaves the stage to make way for The Trip – Vegas’s
