Instagram Spots Las Vegas: Get The Best Pics On Your Trip!

Las Vegas may get a bad rep as a party-centric destination, but it’s actually a great place to have a foodie frenzy, relax, and get GREAT Instagram photos. Just skip the clubs if it’s not your thing, wake up early (while all the party-goers are still hungover and asleep), and snap a bunch of awesome pics at the unique Vegas hotels, flashy neon signs, and drool-worthy restaurants. There’s no shortage of awesome photo spots on the strip, off the strip, and short drives into the desert—you just need to know where to look.

1. Fake a European Vacation At The Paris Hotel + Venetian

Want a euro-trip aesthetic but don’t have the $ or time to go to Italy? You can snap equally cute, wanderlust-worthy shots at some of Vegas’ hotels modeled to look like famous European cities. The Paris Hotel has a model of the Eiffel Tower and the Arc De Triomphe, which both make excellent photo locations. The Venetian Hotel is inspired by Venice, with great photo spots in and out of the property—plus gondola rides for extra special snaps.

2. Pose With All The Kitschy, Flashy Signs

The “Welcome To Las Vegas” sign is one of the most obvious photo spots in Vegas, but if you love posing with cute signs, you’re in luck—because there are so many more! You can find a retro Vegas sign off the strip on East Fremont Street (next to Corduroy’s), or pose in all-white next to the Little White Chapel sign (which features Elvis on it). If that’s not enough, head to The Neon Museum for a bunch of old neon signs artfully placed in the middle of the desert.

3. Eat The Most IG-Worthy Foods

While Vegas’ famous buffets aren’t always the most Instagrammable, there are plenty of restaurants (and menu items) that are. Head to Black Tap for epic milkshakes (some that arrive with a whole slice of cake on top) or get Hello Kitty-shaped donuts at the Hello Kitty Truck outside of New York Hotel. Pose at the iconic entrances for Catch Las Vegas and The Mayfair Supper Club. For a pretty-in-pink afternoon tea, head to Mrs. Coco Cafe.

4. Befriend Some Florals

Vegas may not be known for its natural wildlife, but the Wynn Hotel makes up for it with an epic array of giant floral arrangements throughout the property (don’t miss their gardens). The Bellagio typically has great floral displays as well—both make great photo backdrops for your going-out outfits.

I hope this blog on Instagram Spots in Las Vegas helped inspire your Vegas photo journey! And don’t feel like you can’t get fab photos if you’re traveling solo—there are so many great tripods and remote-controlled photo tools on Amazon (some even move with you!).
