If you’re willing to roll the dice, how about taking a gambling tour? Almost every larger city has a group that makes regular treks to the local casino and signing up for the next trip is as easy as contacting the casino to find out which tour group they recommend.

The benefits of traveling with a group are many. The first, and most obvious is you don’t have to worry about getting there and getting home, simply show up at the appointed times and you’re ferried around. Another benefit is meeting new and interesting people; you may forge friendships that last a lifetime. And then there’s the money aspect: Casinos offer great discounts to groups and these are distributed to each traveler, usually in the form of free tokens to be used while gaming, but you’ll also often find that you get discounts on meals and gift shop purchases.

Gamblers with deeper pockets may wish to contact their local travel agent to see about a group tour to Las Vegas or Atlantic City. These group tours feature some discounted rates on both travel and hotels and many provide discounts to gamblers to get them at the tables and keep them there for a long time.
