I don't know if I am the only one, but I just hate real casinos, and love the online ones and I find them very very different. Here where I live there is a place with just one hour plane drive where I can go to a real casino, and it is not that expensive, I could literally not gamble for one year, save that money, and use that money for travel, hotels, gambling and all, it’s very cheap place.

However, I did it only once in my life when I was younger, and I hated it. There is no rush, do not imagine all the places you can gamble as Las Vegas or you are a millionaire, all I did was gamble on some slots sitting down for many hours, it was the most boring thing I did in my entire life.

For me it has been difficult to find time to visit offline casinos although sometimes I really miss that atmosphere which is very different if only playing online.
What is clear is that in offline gambling, my personal memories are very difficult not to spend money, you have to lose until the money in your hand is no longer there and then you want to get out of it.
In enjoying a vacation, we should not do an activity that we often do when we are at home so that we can really enjoy while on vacation. We must be able to forget the fun of playing gambling for a while while we are on vacation so that we can refresh our minds by not thinking about things and just want to enjoy our vacation time. It will be much better for us because when the vacation time is up and we return home, we can be more productive and who knows, we can get lucky to win that gamble.

In my case, no. But the last few places I've travelled to, either there was no casino or it wasn't a very important casino. If I go near Monaco or Las Vegas, obviously I will go to the casino. But on the trips I've made recently, I was more concerned with seeing the city and the sights than going to the casino, which is something I can do in my city whenever I want.

Hey guys!
Some of us are occupied in i-Gaming industry, some are just players...but apart from leisure&profession there are still old good offline casinos all around the world.
Today Im thinking if visiting an offline casino is out of date or still a good place to visit while travelling?
Do you visit casinos when you travel? How often? Which ones?
Let's remember of old good times Cheesy
Not really. I have never been to casinos much since I am not much interested in gambling. So I don't see myself going to casinos randomly while travelling.

I am sure there are people that prefers offline casinos. And I think most of the high rollers are offline casino players. Playing in physical casino is completely different than playing in online casinos. People can socialize better and meet new people while gambling. Two totally different experience and some people prefer one over the other.

If it's near my travel iterinary then why not. We know that some physical casinos offer other services not just gambling. I've been to a casino where they offer a buffet food, there are some that they have swimming pool or spa where customers can relax. It would also be good to know how their staffs treat their customers, I've been to some that they judge the looks of their customers. They won't entertain you if your physical apperance looks like can't afford that place.
Yes, physical gambling sites provide many benefits to their customers due to which many people enter the physical casino and get those services for free even if they don't gamble, like in Singapore, if a foreigner visits their casino, they give some free dollars as a welcome. Due to which many people visit those casinos but it creates a lure in people and eventually they get attracted to gambling and start gambling.

Well, I haven't traveled to other countries for a long time, I only go to one that is very close to me, however I haven't been to physical casinos, I have gone to casinos in other countries that are very far away, but the truth is that casinos that I want to go to are very far away and it is a whole protocol to get to know them, in my case I have to request visas, and a series of entry permits and that seems very cumbersome and also makes me lazy, so it is better not to imagine that I can access those casinos in Las Vegas, which will be a dream, but in reality it is what I want to know, the 3 countries that I have visited, I have known the casinos, I have played, some won (very little) others lost, but I consider that going out and knowing other countries we should also include the game, not to go crazy, but to have fun.

Since after the covid-19, I am always careful not to mingle in the crowd. I avoid crowded places and it seems that I have developed some kind of phobia for crowd, that is the reason why I cannot visit physical casino anymore.

Another reason is since one is up to age and advanced in life there are some kind of lifestyle you will no longer live because if you are seen visiting casino often you could be termed as irresponsible so playing online is convenient, comfortable and good .
I don't know the condition of your country after covid-19 but almost all countries have mingled without wearing masks and have made peace with the environment without worrying about the pandemic, you should check the crowd phobia and it's better to overcome it as soon as possible, just a suggestion.

Regarding visiting physical gambling places, maybe not all online gamblers visit it when traveling abroad but it is more dominant that many gamblers visit it and play casino, so your reason may be about privacy and I appreciate that, because when traveling conditions are usually limited schedule to visit various new destinations .

This is not my case. I gamble very little, just online (I went a couple of times to a Bingo in my city and it was nice, but they closed), so when travelling abroad I have been more interested in other entertainments, and I never thought about visiting casinos before.

But I suppose that, taking into account the trend to virtualise everything, long time ago established casinos will be more and more a rarity in this world, so the next time I visit foreign cities I will consider visiting them, as something cultural more than to gamble my money there. Maybe to take a shot and see how others play. Nothing to say if I ever visit Las Vegas or Montecarlo.
How little would that be. 10 or 20 dollars? But I think small amounts like that are always welcome in an offline casino. Casino owners are not choosy when it comes to customer because a small money is still money and it will get bigger once it combined with other players losses but it was unfortunate that the bingo place on your city is now closed.

Do you have an info if they close permanently or maybe they only close it temporarily due to the covid that we have last time. You can still play in offline casinos in other places that you visit. I think you will always find one which are open especially if your destination is in vegas or macau.

I will definitely love to travel and visit a new casino and this is my reasons.

1. For new experience, yes, I know that almost all casinos are the same, with same game etc. But the ambience and feel is very different

2. I have travelled already, so why not visit them?

3. Travelled and my intention is to go and visit them like in Macau or Vegas

I know that there is a boom of online casinos, but traditional base casino is very different for me, to be honest. I feel that I'm more lucky on land base.  Grin

Physical casinos have become unsafe for me must, especially since the pandemic, I do use one or two in the last couple of years back when I was an undergraduate and we were on an excursion but since then I have not had a hard time visiting any casinos houses as there are not s popular here in my country, so most times we make bets and play online in some part in my country gambling is seen as illegal so to find a casino while on transits is very difficult.

I haven't travel by much to be honest in the last 10 years so I haven't travel obviously. But I have visited our local casino's after they allowed player to go and play already with several restrictions. And now, even after the restrictions have been lifted. And so with that, I would say that I will visit any land case casinos if given the chance to travel again, whether Asia or the US. Or even local casino as well.

I did like to travel to Las Vegas in the United States (obviously) to visit a few good casinos but nowadays the gambling experiences have been completely rebuilt. I do not like the modern offline gambling experience. You want to play slots? You have to go buy a piece of paper that says you have "funded" your account with a certain amount of money but you are not allowed to directly use coins anymore. Its basically playing online slots but in a different physical place. So what is the point anymore? Some slot machines used to use levers, then it was buttons now those buttons have turned into flatscreen. What an exciting experience. Pressing a large screen. Like you can't do that on your phone. Roll Eyes

Really?  Huh
It was because the pandemic or something?, I had assumed Las Vegas still had those classic machines and slots which one actually needed to manually insert coins, pull the lever and push on those buttons. I was aware there were some exceptions for some games like video poker, but doing this to slots sounds like messing a little bit too much with the appeal those machines have.

what would be next? replacing the Roulette with a tactile table and getting rid of the chips completely? 
Perhaps they would fire all the pretty women attending the clients in favor of automation?

of course when a person travels and then goes to visit a casino it is not wrong, the casino is part of tourist places, for example for a person like me who is in africa and one day goes to the USA there in las vegas, without a doubt at the casino of las vegas getting to know and playing will do me good and i will be doing tourism. the only bad thing would be to get to the casino and play and lose all the money and then not have money to eat and to go back to your house, that's why I don't advise people addicted to gambling to travel and then go visit some casino and play because They will lose all their money and have not returned home

Do you visit casinos when you travel? How often? Which ones?

I don't visit any physical casinos when I travel because there are no physical casinos outside the city where I live, so when I'm out of the city where I live, I only visit online casinos, this is the biggest advantage of online casino, one can travel anywhere, even being in a place where there is no physical casino, it is enough that it has electricity and a device capable of entering the internet that the person can enter the online casino, of course respecting the TOS of the casino

Visiting casino house is what I love to do , when out of the country? i make sure that the place i am going to visit is near casino and not a gambling banned country so I can enjoy and try my luck outside my place.
but of course mostly loves online specially crypto gambling because this is how we do and what we earn.

I find it unsafe sometimes playing on the casino in different country because I didn’t what’s people behavior towards gambling and you might be in danger if you won and get out on the casino since foreigners is an eye catchers to local thief. I don’t have any experience about since I still didn’t travel overseas but I will not visit any physical casino if ever I will have a chance to have an overseas travel since it’s risky.

I will choose online casino over IRL casino if I will have cravings to play at that time rather than risk my life and money to the country that I don’t fully know the locals behavior. It’s not worthy the risk with just a little bit of entertainment.

I can't believe you just asked if offline casinos nowadays are out of date. Come on mate, seriously? Haven't you heard of Las Vegas or Macau or Monte Carlo? Offline casinos are not even declining but they continue growing over the years.

It's not necessary to visit casinos while traveling for a vacation but if there's a good casino or you have extra time and you have the urge to gamble some, then why not? I tried it several times already here in my country and twice at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore.
I don't think OP necessarily mean those places where Gambling establishment is booming and are a common scenery. It's more on the general land-based casino whereas casinos in non-traditional places are mostly out of date and have fewer games and services to offer. However, there are major casinos such as in those countries you've mentioned where the casino is much more advance and can offer tons of games and satisfactory services to its gamblers compared to online gambling casinos.

Also, it actually depends on the individual whether they would like to go to a casino for their vacation as there are some people who don't like the idea of going or gambling at a casino. But if you will be going on a place where gambling is one of the attractions and tours then why not to be able to experience.

I'm sure not everybody will agree with the statement that there are  always Las Vegas and Monte Carlo. Yes, it is true, but do all players want to visit it? have the budget? the time? That is the thread about Smiley

Well, all of us have different tastes. We usually have plans for the places to visit and budget when we travel for our vacations. Most of us spend our vacations visiting beautiful beaches, landmarks, sceneries, and casinos are mostly out of the plan. Except if our destinations are Las Vegas, Macau, and Monte Carlo which are popular for their extravagant casinos.   

As for me, it just so happens that I used to relax and unwind by traveling to local places without plans so if there is a nearby casino I sometimes visit and gamble a little. Marina Bay Sands is a beautiful landmark in Singapore so I visited it but only twice and not every time I visited the country.

I tried to visit casino's outside my place but not that often . meaning maybe if there are enough time and extra funds then why not? but if not then I would choose playing Online as it is more safer and time efficient .

and also when I travelled ? there are limited time given as my family is my priority and i hate being far from them so the more i play is the more time i need to spend outside their heart.

But of course I do visit sometimes.

Still, there are some people who would like to play a gambling casino because actually, it is really different than online gambling like the ambience, experience and of course the crowd enjoyment while playing the game, if you don't have time I guess it is not really ideal to play in the physical casino because of course it really consumes time but that's the reason why we have a lot of gambling casino right now this is the being convenient in playing at your devices connected in the internet. If I have a chance to visit a casino I will do it because not all the time I can visit these kinds of places.
Yeah and I am to choose? of course traditional gambling is what i will  love  because in this I learn gambling and in this my brother and I have bonding in the past though nowadays it is Online gambling that we are playing because of having lack of time travelling as traffic is everywhere in our city.
and yes I understand your thought here , it is rare occassion now that we can visit gambling houses so lets enjoy when there is a chance.
