The Adventuredome at Circus Circus, 2880 Las Vegas Blvd. South, appeals to kids and those who feel the urge to be a kid again.

The five-acre indoor theme park features 14 rides and several attractions that appeal to all ages. There's the Canyon Blaster roller coaster that takes riders through two loops and two corkscrew turns. Plan on getting wet on the Rim Runner ride. For a milder time, there's the traditional Circus Carousel.

The park also has miniature golf, virtual reality games, an arcade and a rock climbing wall.

Rides cost $4 to $7 each, while an all-day ride pass is $22.95, and a junior pass -- for those less than 48 inches tall -- is $14.95. On weekdays, Nevada residents receive a $2 discount on the all-day pass.

Park hours are 11 a.m.-6 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays; 10 a.m.-midnight Fridays and Saturdays; and 10 a.m.-9 p.m. Sundays. Hours vary so call the hot line at 794-3939 for the most up-to-date times.

Strip Tips is a weekly feature by Sonya Padgett that highlights attractions and activities on the Las Vegas Strip.
