Las Vegas in March: Your perfect 3-day itinerary

  • Morning: Start at Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Gardens around 8:30am, when the crowd is thin and the spring display still feels calm.
  • Breakfast: Eat at Mon Ami Gabi at Paris Las Vegas. Order eggs Benedict or a simple pastry-and-coffee set if you want to keep moving.
  • Midday: Walk through Bellagio, Paris, and Caesars Palace. March afternoons are usually pleasant enough for pedestrian bridges, but the distances are longer than they look.
  • Lunch: Head to Bacchanal Buffet at Caesars Palace if you want a long meal, or keep it lighter at a cafe inside the resort corridor.
  • Afternoon: Go up to the Eiffel Tower Viewing Deck before the sunset rush. If you prefer a slower pace, spend the late afternoon around LINQ Promenade instead.
  • Evening: Ride The High Roller at The LINQ Tickets at sunset, then walk back toward Bellagio for fountain views.
  • Dinner: Stay central and eat somewhere you can reach on foot. Strip timing works best when you stop crossing properties unnecessarily.
  • Night activity: End with Cirque du Soleil 'O': Las Vegas if you want one classic Vegas theater night on day one.
  • Morning: Take the Deuce or a rideshare downtown and start at the Mob Museum when it opens. You will get more out of it before Fremont Street noise ramps up.
  • Breakfast: Grab coffee and a quick breakfast downtown; keep it light because you will walk more than you expect.
  • Midday: Explore Fremont Street Experience, then drift into Fremont East and the Arts District. March weather makes this sequence much easier than it is in July.
  • Lunch: Eat in the Arts District, where you get a break from casino dining and a more local lunch crowd.
  • Afternoon: Return to the Strip, rest at your hotel, or use the downtime for shopping. This is the right place in the itinerary for a reset.
  • Evening: Head to The Sphere early for exterior photos and security time, then see Wizard of Oz at Sphere.
  • Dinner: Eat nearby at Venetian or Palazzo so you are not racing the clock.
  • Night activity: If you still have energy, take a short post-show walk around the north Strip. March nights are cool, but rarely punishing.
  • Morning: Go big with From Las Vegas: 70+ min Grand Canyon West Rim Helicopter Tour Plus Canyon Floor Landing with Champagne. March is one of the cleaner weather windows for desert flying.
  • Breakfast: Eat early at your hotel or bring a quick grab-and-go coffee before pickup; flight mornings are not the time for a slow brunch.
  • Midday: Let the canyon take the day. You get aerial views, a canyon-floor landing, and less heat stress than visitors deal with later in spring.
  • Lunch: Your tour includes canyon-floor refreshments, so lean into the experience instead of planning a second reservation.
  • Afternoon: Once back in Las Vegas, keep the pace light. A nap, pool hour, or spa stop makes sense here.
  • Evening: For your last night, choose either Cirque du Soleil KÀ: Las Vegas or a more casual dinner-and-cocktail plan.
  • Dinner: Stay south Strip if you are seeing a show at MGM Grand or Mandalay Bay.
  • Night activity: Finish with one final slow walk past the brighter center-Strip properties. March is forgiving enough to enjoy the city properly at the end of the day.
