Las Vegas & Cancun Multi & Twin Centre Holidays

While Las Vegas is a great year-round destination, some of the best times to explore the city are during the spring and autumn months. The weather forecast will still be relatively mild, but the main draw of visiting at these times is that they both fall outside of the peak summer months. This means there’ll be fewer crowds and (hopefully) shorter queues for many of the attractions! Both seasons are also ideal if you want a similar atmosphere for exploring Washington D.C - the US capital city can be extremely busy during the peak tourism months in the summer.

If you’re concerned about soaking up some vitamin D on your Las Vegas and Washington D.C multi-centre holidays, then visiting during the summer months will suit you better. The hottest time to visit Las Vegas is during July and August, when temperatures can soar to highs of 38°C.

The hottest time in Washington D.C is also during July and August, but please note that high temperatures of 30°C and intense humidity levels can slow your outdoor adventures down a little.

The Arts DIstrict is home to contemporary galleries, chic shops, and artisan bakeries, let’s face it, nothing beats a morning stroll with a freshly brewed coffee and pastry in hand!

The Smithsonian’s National Zoo will exhaust their curiosity and the attraction doubles up as a great opportunity to teach kids about the importance of conservation. Use up any leftover energy at the Beauvoir Outdoors Playground, made up of challenging jungle gyms and obstacle courses for kids, this spot is certain to delight. If you’re visiting during the scorching summer months, then don’t miss out on The Yards Park - the whole family can splash around in dancing fountains or give kayaking a go.

Planning your Washington D.C multi-centre itinerary means taking all of the main attractions into account, and it will come as no surprise that the capital city is home to quite a few! Our roundup below takes you on a whistle-stop tour of some of the most significant historical landmarks in D.C, and it’s bound to be a hit with any wannabe historians!

• The National Mall - tick off the Lincoln Memorial, and the U.S. Capitol from your itinerary, and enjoy free admission to marvel at both of these prolific commemorations. There’s an admission fee for The Washington Monument, but it’s definitely worthwhile if you’re a history enthusiast.
• The Smithsonian Museums - this collective includes the National Air and Space Museum, National Museum of American History, and National Museum of Natural History. Exhibits vary throughout the year, so be sure to check what’s on when you’ll be visiting. There’s no need to book tickets in advance if you’re visiting during off-peak months, but you might face some hefty queues if you’re planning a trip during the summer months.
• The White House - did you know that tourists are allowed to take a free tour around the home of the President of the United States? Tickets can be booked in advance, and tours take place at specific times five days a week - with the exception of public holidays.
• The Library of Congress - bookworms will be awe-inspired after visiting the world's largest library, where countless shelves and fragile spines line the main building.
• The Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial - the life’s work of one of the most important figures in the 1960’s civil rights movement is celebrated in D.C, and visiting the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial is a sombre experience.
• The Supreme Court of the United States - some of the most famous, ‘turning point’ rulings have been made at The Supreme Court of the United States, and the building itself is an immense architectural wonder.

Your suitcase selection for Las Vegas needs to include an outfit or two for sampling some of the nightlife, or catching a family-friendly show, so bring some dressy options! 

During the day in both destinations, you’ll likely be doing a lot of exploring, so we’d recommend packing plenty of throw-on layers. If you’re visiting during the summer, a hat and sunglasses will be essentials (not forgetting your sun cream, of course), but in spring and autumn months, your accessory ought to be a light jacket. Comfy shoes will be a must for doing lots of wandering between attractions - and it’s worth noting that some government sites specify modest attire for visitors.
