Clubcrawling by Dallas Limo Rental: 5 More Fave Clubs

You'll find the same thing the world over -- in cities where it is hot by day, everyone comes out to party at night, with the sweet relief of darkness! Dallas is a great party city, but as far as transport from club to club goes, taxis and trains simply can’t top the most luxurious experience ... a night of club-hopping by Dallas limousine! Today we check out some of the city's favorite venues, their price ranges and best features.
1. Thrive Nightclub
This is a very new place, and yet to establish a solid clientele and atmosphere -- everybody that comes has the opportunity to make this place their own. It has an upscale Vegas-style decor, and drink prices that are a little more reasonable than you’d expect. The ceiling is made from a polyester blend that ripples along with the bass in the music -- awesome!
2. The Granada Theater Dallas
Okay, this probably isn’t a place that you would go to for warm-up drinks, cool-down drinks, or even-in between drinks while club hopping. Granada Theater hosts some awesome shows, and has a full bar in the house -- and you'll definitely want a Dallas limo to pick you up and drop you off to make the most of your night!
3. Round Up Saloon
This bar has a heated patio for smokers, and as a gay bar, is welcoming for all types of people, including those with no romantic interest in any of the other patrons! The music is by DJ, and even Sunday nights at the Round Up Saloon are jumping. There is said to be "an array of lovable fashion disasters" ... a not-to-be-missed part of modern Dallas culture.
4. Lee Harvey's
Lee Harvey's is a dive bar that is busy, well-established, and consistently sends people away with a big, half-drunken grin on their faces! The venue has a real genuine, friendly feel -- there is free bug repellent at the bar for outside drinkers, and the staff have been known to provide blankets for cold days, as well as starting the fire pits. You can even bring your dog ... as long as she's allowed in your Dallas limo as well.
5. Times Ten Cellars
Of course, if you feel a little uncomfortable going to a dive bar in a Dallas limo, then Times Ten Cellars will be a better choice for your club-crawling expeditions. This wine bar is attached to cellars, so if you have a great drink you can grab a little extra to bring home. It is unpretentious, mid-priced, and said to be great for enjoying an adults-only happy hour.

Save on Activities, Splurge on Dallas Limos! Free Things to Do in Dallas

Most people go about having fun on their holidays completely backwards -- choosing the expensive activities day to day, and then making up the shortfall in their budget by choosing public transport. When you’re in a strange city, and especially if you’re with children, this can be extremely stressful! If you're on your way to Dallas for a vacation and want it to be relaxing (for a change!), book yourself a Dallas limo for transport, and enjoy some of the city's best FREE activities!
1. The Super Model Train
Children of all ages, from 8 to 60, will enjoy the Super Model Train! This is the country's largest permanent model train display, located at the Children's Medical Center of Dallas.
2. Fantasy Landing
This is a special project of the Parks and Recreastion Department -- the Dallas public administrastion is responsible for over 17,000 acres of greenbelt land, and this is a small part of it. It allows disabled children to enjoy the facilities as much as their able-bodied counterparts -- if you have children, it teaches them that everybody is different, and that tolerance is a beautiful thing.
3. Crow Collection of Asian Art
Along with the Spanish collection, Dallas also has an enormous collection of Asian Art. This includes pieces from China, Japan, India and other small Southeast Asian countries.
4. Gallery of Sports Art
Take your Dallas limo over to Arlington to see the Gallery of Sports Art, featuring limited edition original lithographs, bronze statues and original artworks related to sport.
5. Dallas Nature Center
No matter where you are staying in the city, the Dallas Nature Center is likely to be close to your Dallas limousine company's headquarters - you may be able to save on fares! The center includes hiking trails, native-plant nurseries, a picnic area and a visitors center. It incorporates 633 acres of preserved wilderness only a short trip from Downtown.
6. The Hand Exhibit
Sounds odd - but once you are there, this collection of more than 100 bronze cast hands of real life people is fascinating! Louis Armstrong, Winston Churchill, Katharine Hepburn and Walt Disney's handcasts reside here.
A Dallas limo can really help organize your trip, quiet your kids, and give you some much needed peace on vacations… and with free activities you don't need to sacrifice getting out and about!
