There's nothing better than celebrating your birthday with the people you love.

Cake, celebration and great comradery is the perfect equation to create an outcome of a great birthday. It also doesn't hurt that we're in Vegas, which is one of the best cities to have any celebration in.

There are endless things to do, see and experience, and you simply deserve to have the best birthday.

Vegas is packed with so many entertainment options; it's almost overwhelming to narrow down a wish list of possible birthday events. To help with this, we had Ransom Garcia create this list of his top seven spots for any bday party!

One of Ransom's favorite memories involving birthdays is when he celebrated his wife's 30th. They rented cabins along the beautiful Mount Charleston. He further adds that he can't wait for the Lodge to be rebuilt, which was destroyed by a fire last year.

From museums to riding along the Hoover Dam's trail, Ransom's must-see places are sure to make anyone's special day memorable.

The majority of these activities are great for the entire family, too! Sit back, relax and let's explore potential places to host your next festivity.

Dueling Axes at Area 15

Address: 3215 S Rancho Dr, Las Vegas, NV 89102

Area 15 houses a lot of great experiences, but my personal favorite is their DUELING AXES room. Grab a few friends, a couple buckets of beer and try to get the high score!

Whiskey Tour at Whiskey Attic

Address: 4780 W Harmon Ave #12, Las Vegas, NV 89103

Whether you're a total novice or a self-proclaimed whiskey expert, this is an incredible experience! You'll learn a ton and the host makes it so much fun!

Wreck Room: A Destruction Experience

Address: 4090 Schiff Dr, Las Vegas, NV 89103

Have you ever wanted to live out that popular "Office Space" printer scene? Well then, I've got a place for you! Let's just call a spade a spade... the last few years have been stressful. Wreck Room lets you release that stress and have a great time doing it!

Neon Museum

Address:  770 Las Vegas Blvd N, Las Vegas, NV 89101

I can't think of a spot in town that offers so many photographical moments! You'll learn a lot about Vegas history AND get that perfect shot for all your social media platforms!

Pinball Hall of Fame

Address: 4925 Las Vegas Blvd S, Las Vegas, NV 89119

If you're a fan of classic arcade games, you can have a really great time here without spending too much money!

Rail Explorers in Boulder City

Address601 Yucca St, Boulder City, NV 89005

Rail Explorers offers pedal-powered rail bikes and scenic rides on the rails that helped build the Hoover Dam. There are three tours available, but my personal favorites are the "Desert Sunset" and "Fireside Starlight" tours.  There's just something magical about peddling in the starlight.

Milo's Cellar in Boulder City

Address: 538 Nevada Highway, Boulder City, NV 89005

Milo's Cellar, in Boulder City, is one of my absolute favorite watering holes in all of Southern Nevada.

Their food is great, and they've got some of the best sangria I've had. Plus, if you have too much of that wine, Milo's has a few rooms in the back that you can rent for the night! Such a great spot!
