1. Lake Mead National Recreation Area

Lake Mead State Park

Pack your choice of luxury SUV rental with chairs, blankets, and refreshments to relax at Sandy Beach — a popular spot by the lake where you can also rent a boat.

The 12-mile drive down Lakeshore Road is full of amazing views and places like the Historic Railroad Trail or the famous Coffee Cup Café in Boulder City.

2. Hoover Dam Bypass

Hoover Dam

Take a convertible Lamborghini down Lakeshore Road onto Hoover Dam, massive construction of 6,600,000 tons of concrete rising to vertigo-inducing heights.

The dam’s not open to traffic, but you can still walk there and gaze at immense 1,200ft walls. You’ll find a café with beautiful outdoor seating and gift stores for souvenirs.

3. Red Rock Canyon Scenic Byway

Red Rock Canyon

Try driving Red Rock’s 13-mile scenic loop in our Bentley Continental GTC with the top down. This canyon’s views of colorful rock hills, local wildlife, and unique plants can be seen year-round.

We rarely have rainy days, so catch some rays at nice spots or have an impromptu photo shoot.

4. Blue Diamond Bend

Blue Diamond Bend

From Red Rock, drive down Hwy 159 W and take the Blue Diamond Rd to bend to Bonnie Springs Ranch, an entire traditional-style western town with a restaurant, zoo, opera house, saloon, and classic trains.

On your way, get the real feel for the Old West in a Ferrari California T with 550 horsepower and experience it like no wagon train ever could.

5. Valley of Fire State Park

Valley Of Fire National Park

Voted one of the most scenic drives in Southern Nevada, Valley of Fire Highway is off I-15 N. The desert road leads to a barren landscape of beautiful, red-rock Aztec Sandstone outcrops.

There are many hiking trails with ancient petroglyphs, shaded areas to take a picnic, restrooms, and Wi-Fi.
