As for the view, during the day you ll be able to see more than just The Strip. You ll see the entire Las Vegas Valley, the surrounding mountains, and the contrast between the city and the desert.

Sunset & After Dark

Riding the High Roller after 4pm requires you to purchase an Anytime Ticket, which is essentially considered nighttime. Riding the wheel after dark provides a closer look at all of the hotels as they re lit up. If you time it right, taking a ride at sunset is a great compromise between day and night views. You ll still be able to see the desert landscape and experience the glittering lights of The Strip. Monday through Thursday you can take a ride from 4pm to 12am.
