I would love to visit Vegas and its casinos not for the sense of luxury or non luxury, but to get that unbelievable experience of being in such place. Any place in the world with casinos of such level would do (like Macau, Monte Carlo or Amsterdam casinos), but Vegas is one of my dreams. I would go there just for the shows, cuisine, entertainment, shopping, services, general atmosphere there.
I'm with you there, brother, that's one of my dreams too. Actually I'm afraid it would be a disappointing experience for me, but I would love to go to one of those places one day. To be honest, I didn't know there were casinos in Amsterdam. I've been there 5 times and it never occurred to me that I could visit one of the places similar to those in Macau, Monte Carlo and Vegas. I'm still not sure whether the casinos in Amsterdam are of that high level. What do you think?
First of all, try to erase in your memory what you have seen or knew about Las Vegas and try from the blank scratch. I havent visited casinos in Amsterdam, but I've heard from the guide that they are nice. If they were like a regular casino in your town - specious room with 4-10 tables and an area of slots, then the guide would not have even pointed about casinos of Amsterdam. I went to google and found some nice pictures. They are not like casinos in Vegas (that is why I suggested to erase Vegas experience), but definitely not like regular casino. At least it is not a one big room or place that 100 people would fit, but an area in Amsterdam.
