Vegas and Atlantic City make this list of gambling getaways.
Sun City
Gaming and game viewing go hand in hand at the Sun City complex, South Africa’s jungle-themed gambling mecca 90-minutes northwest of Johannesburg on the southern border of Pilanesberg National Park. Take your chances on a “big five” (lions, leopards, elephants, rhinos, and buffalo) safari before retreating to the five-star Palace of the Lost City for a high-stakes game of punto banco (baccarat). Three other hotel properties, a Gary Player-designed golf course, a crocodile sanctuary, and a massive water park with steep slides and simulated waves are all set amid Sun City’s 60-acre, man-made jungle. Novice gamblers whose arms grow weary tugging at the resort’s 850 slot machines can enroll in the Sun City School of Gaming to learn the skills and etiquette of table games like roulette, blackjack, craps, and stud poker. It’s roaring fun!
