If you are dreaming of visiting Death Valley as part of your next vacation to Las Vegas, you are probably thinking about the fact that it is considered the hottest place on earth. This designation comes from multiple heat records, including the hottest temperature ever recorded on earth several decades ago. While there are other places in the world who have also claimed the same thing, the fact remains that it is absolutely recognized as an area that is completely unique, due in part to its heat and lack of rainfall. What would an area like this look like? Are there plants and animals living in Death Valley? What does the hottest place on earth feel like to visit? Most tours of Death Valley that happen in the summer time are considered more sightseeing, because it is almost dangerous to exit the vans and busses that transport you there. This is the reason that it is so much better to visit Death Valley in the winter.
From around November through spring time, Death Valley is perfect to visit. The landscape will appear much the same as it does during the times of extreme heat that dominate the summer, only the temperatures that you will be exposed to will be twenty to thirty degrees less, making it quite pleasant to exit the vehicles and explore for extended periods of time. While the summertime temperatures will make it nearly impossible to actually stroll and hike through this unique area, the winter times allow you to do exactly that for almost as long as you desire. The drawback o the winters in Death Valley are extreme swings to the colder side at night, but most who are actually touring will not be spending much time here after dark anyway. Death Valley is a unique place that is not fully mapped for GPS and which has limited services, so it is not a good idea to explore after dark anyway.
If you are planning to travel to Death Valley, it is best to start in Las Vegas as a starting point and drive in from there. It is an even better idea to allow a touring company based in Las Vegas to take care of the details for you, as they will be able to provide access to the best and most interesting areas without the danger of becoming lost. Death Valley National Park has always been recognized as more of the most beautiful and interesting places in the world, and now is the perfect time to experience it for yourself.
