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. 🛳 ✈️ 🎰 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.

we went up to our cabin and all of a sudden the lights went out and Air conditioner went out

Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for The Traveling Gamblers.

  1. Commit to a specific budget for the entire cruise rather than playing night by night.

  2. Make an onboard booking with a $100 deposit to secure extra onboard credit bonuses.

  3. Scan the QR code at the casino host desk to see the current month's master list of point requirements and eligible cruises.

  4. Play next to your partner and share wins/losses to balance the bankroll.

  5. For low limit players, this video is perfect as they mix up play styles.

  6. Explore the port on your own for a local experience.

  7. Walk to the town square for more shops and sights.

  8. Try the inexpensive local restaurants for great food.
