Lake Mead for the "Riverboat tour". Near the Lake Mead Marina at Heminway Wash is the "Desert Queen" pseudo river boat tours. A very well done imitation riverboat takes regular tours out into the lake around the point and near the front of Hoover Dam. Every 'out of towner' I have taken on this tour has enjoyed it totally. An evening dinner tour is also available. .......... NevSmith

You could take them to Red Rock Park. It is a nice getaway from the city.

As I indicated on another thread, having lived in Vegas I have a lot of tips about what to visit and see beyond The Strip and Downtown.
Send me a private message and I'll tell you where to get them.
