If you like thrill rides, you’ll love the Stratosphere Las Vegas Casino, Hotel & Tower.

First off, the tower is 1,149 feet into the Vegas skyline. Throw a few scary rides on that platform, and well, you get the picture.

The newest thrill is SkyJump Las Vegas, a controlled free fall that sends you jumping off the 108th floor. There’s also the Big Shot, X-Scream and Insanity. It doesn’t take much imagination to figure out all these are probably much scarier than anything you encountered on Halloween.

Golf can be kind of a thrill ride, too, and Walters Golf, in conjunction with the Stratosphere, is offering a package that combines accommodations at the Stratosphere and its imaginative golf courses.

Through Feb. 28, the Ultimate Strat Golf Package is offering customers $50 off on rounds at Bali Bai Golf Club, Royal Links Golf Club and Desert Pines while staying the Stratosphere Las Vegas Hotel & Casino for as little as $26 a night.

The courses are unlike anything else in Las Vegas. Bali Hai, which is located right on the Strip, has a really cool South Pacific theme, complete with palms, tropical plants and plenty of white sand and water. Royal Links is a terrific tribute course to the best of the British Open courses, featuring holes inspired by the Old Course at St. Andrews, Carnoustie and Royal Troon, to name a few. And Desert Pines, a Dye Design, features thousands of imported Carolina Pines and perfect bentgrass greens.

Combine that with staying downtown at one of Las Vegas’ most recognizable landmarks, and you’ve got a pretty exciting golf package.
