The Traveling Gamblers description on YouTube:

We love to travel, go on cruises & play slots. We share what we have learned in the past 25 years in the hope that it will help you along your journey, whatever that may be. πŸ›³ ✈️ 🎰 We are a retired, married couple of 25 yrs. We love traveling & playing in the casinos on land & at sea. We started traveling on occasion, then about once a month and now we travel the majority of the time. We have gone on over 150 cruises & are booked on many more ahead. We fly to Las Vegas a few times a year and are now traveling throughout Europe. We have learned so much along the way about travel, hotels, cruises, loyalty programs, casino programs & comps and we thought it would be fun to share it with others.
