I've done both. Vegas twice and NY about 15 times. They are completely different cities and it will depend very much on what you're looking for. Vegas is all glitz and glamour, incredible shows, shopping and bars and restaurants. Not only that it can be your summer holiday too as the weather is usually great and sitting by the pool is OK. It's a relatively compact place, easy to get around and yet the size of each casino is extraordinary. A lot of entertainment is free as most casinos have some public show or other taking place at various times of the day. It really has it all.NY is a great city. But it is just a city so if you enjoy city breaks you'll love the place. Shopping is good, restaurants are great value for money, more so than the UK, and Broadway is really good. It doesn't have many sights worth visiting (I'd avoid the Statue of Liberty) so expect big queues for those that you want to see. I love Central Park, don't know why really, but it can be a great attraction when the weathers good. I would suggest a good tourist guide and pick out those things you wish to see and do. 4 days might not seem much but you could do it all in that time if you wish.
Great advice cheers chaps. Been and got some quotes today, looking like 3 days NY, 5 days vegas at the moment. Can't wait

If we can be allowed to suggest our own personal favorite places in the USA, mine would be either Savannah, Georgia or Charleston, South Carolina. New Orleans gets a mention as does Montgomery, Alabama too. Or the one horse little place in the panhandle where I first saw tumbleweed actually blowing down the street! Couldn't believe my eyes! There it was CheersBobG
Hi all, looking at going to either New York or Vegas next year. Well, I want to go NY... the mrs wants to go Vegas.Has anyone been to both and which did you prefer?Would doing both (say 4 nights in each) mean cramming too much in or is 4 days in each enough??Would appreciate some thoughts.Cheers.
