I’m a retired musician here in Las Vegas and I love this city. It is truly a unique town, noplace else like it on earth, and since I started this little YouTube channel, it has been my pleasure to share a locals-eye view of its attractions to all of you out there who have an interest. A side benefit of picking up the camera and venturing out is that we are discovering secrets and wonders as well, right along with you!
We put out a new video about once a week, and we've got quite a collection of them already published - check them out, you may find a property or attraction that you are thinking of visiting, or have already enjoyed.

It's June in Las Vegas, and that means summer is in full force - but nowhere more so than in the fabulous Conservatory at Bellagio. The Summer 2023 theme was just unveiled over Memorial Day weekend, and it's called Majesty: The Grandeur of Nature. It's a cool green oasis from the craziness of the outside world, populated with fun woodland creatures and lots and lots of green. Come explore it with us!
We are long overdue for a visit to Aria - the gorgeous centerpiece of CityCenter, in the enviable center of the Las Vegas Strip! A lot has changed since we did our first tour (back in summer 2019), plus we had the wonderful opportunity to tour the fabulous Sky Suites Penthouse, so how could we possibly resist??
Here's a little extra for you, from your on-location correspondents at LVIO - the confusing and very entertaining saga of the Oakland A's baseball team moving to Las Vegas! Will they or won't they? Where will that new stadium actually go, how much does the land cost, and who's paying for it? Watch and learn...
When you live in Fabulous Las Vegas, and you're at loose ends on a Saturday afternoon, what do you do? You drive down to the Strip, that's what - and we did! We arrived at the corner of Las Vegas Blvd and Sands Avenue, with no plans and no agenda, and a terrific adventure just kind of happened. First, we had what felt like a VIP lunch at Maggiano's Little Italy, then we took a wander through the biggest mall on the Strip, the Fashion Show. And then we walked into Fantasy Lab, and were blown away by this new immersive attraction. What a great afternoon!

Wow, is Downtown Las Vegas reinventing itself! On a sunny spring Sunday, we happened upon the beautifully redone Fergusons Motel, on Fremont Street between 10th and 11th, except these days it is anything but a motel. It's a community gathering space, a free live music venue, a set of shops celebrating local artists and craftspeople, bars and restaurants, and absolutely no gambling! It's called Fergusons Downtown, and we LOVED exploring it: encountering the nicest people, the best food, the most unique items for sale...and we can't wait for YOU to visit it with us!
Your LVIO correspondents haven't set foot in the biggest single hotel in the world, the MGM Grand, in more than 3 years, and when you're measuring in Las Vegas time, that's long enough to knock something down and build something else! MGM Grand celebrates its 30th anniversary later this year, and we are excited to do a walkthrough of the whole property with our cameras, show you what's new and updated since we were last inside. It's had a lot of taglines over the years...the City of Entertainment, the Entertainment Authority, Maximum Vegas...and with each new incarnation it remains relevant, alluring, and attractive.

On a cool and cloudy weekday, your LVIO correspondents were first in line for prepaid priority seating at one of the most highly-rated buffets in Las Vegas: The Buffet at the Wynn. Join us as we tour all the food stations before they've even been touched by the diners, and then sample a small variety of the more than 120 dishes to choose from. It's a culinary extravaganza, and in such a beautiful setting - what a great experience!
Today Las Vegas Inside & Out is taking you on a tour of a HUGE casino resort way down on Las Vegas Boulevard where it crosses Silverado Ranch: the larger-than-life South Point Hotel Casino & Spa. We have been wanting to feature it on our channel for a long time, and we finally got over to explore it with our cameras from end to end, top to bottom - everywhere we could film we filmed!

Spring has arrived in Las Vegas, and the visual evidence of that is the transformation of the Conservatory at Bellagio into its spring incarnation. This year, in 2023, the theme is "Giardino dell' Amore", or, the Garden of Love. The Conservatory is a multi-sensory European garden, celebrating the beauty and endurance of love - and you need to see it to believe it!
