Roller coaster: discover the thrilling The Big Apple Coaster!

One of the attractions of Vegas is the advantage that many tourists feel of being able to experience different parts of the world in one place. Proof of this can be seen in the numerous hotels that recreate environments faithful to iconic tourist spots on the map, such as the Caesars Hotel, which takes you on a tour of beautiful Rome. The Venetian is another good example, which takes you straight to Venice, or Luxor, which enchants with the beauties of Egypt.
Not touring other continents, but paying homage to yet another corner of the United States, the New York New York hotel invites you on a real tour of Manhattan. Even if you haven’t been to New York, you can feel a bit of the metropolitan atmosphere in this part of the country, with plenty of adrenaline.

To literally immerse you in this theme, in January 1997 the hotel’s roller coaster, the Big Apple Coaster, opened to the public. Promising minutes of excitement amidst a view of the replica of New York Harbor and a 45-meter model of the famous Statue of Liberty, the fun doesn’t stop there: several popular Manhattan buildings are remembered in identical buildings to the originals, but in a more colorful version, and the passenger trains are designed in the shape of New York cabs.

The attraction, which lasts a total of 2 minutes and 45 seconds, has the capacity to entertain 1,000 people per hour, in three 16-passenger trains, and believe me, this number is easily beaten due to the significant demand from those curious about the toy.
On the trails, the route begins with an extremely steep climb that continues slowly to the top, setting any heart racing. Then it’s time to fasten your seat belts because the descent is a 144-meter drop in just a few seconds. Breathe? Don’t worry, it’s not over. In between the bends, save your breath for the most winding loops, climbs and descents you’ve ever seen, at up to 108 kilometers per hour.

Other services
After spending all your adventurous spirit on the rails, you can even buy your own souvenir photo at the exit.
