Online betting is great fun and websites such as Sbobet offer excellent games and a lot of fun but when it comes to going to a real casino, top of the list of places to visit is always Las Vegas.  The casinos and hotels in the city are a tourist attraction in their own right while there are celebrity chef restaurants, circus shows and thrill rides to mix in with the gambling.  Everyone has seen The Strip, the main area of the city where the big name hotels are based while Fremont Street is the place to go for a more vintage casino experience.

Monte Carlo, Monaco

The tiny state of Monaco is home to another huge name in the casino world – Monte Carlo.  Famous from James Bond movies and countless other films and TV shows, the Monte Carlo Casino opened in 1863 and is a sight to see with its gold and marble atrium and stunning stone frescoes.  The city sits on the edge of the Mediterranean too so if you like a spot of sun and sand with your blackjack, then it is a winning combination.

Aruba, Caribbean

Macau

While being a part of China, Macau is a tiny province opposite the bay from Hong Kong and was formerly a part of Portugal.  The place is known for its casinos, number 18 at last count, and most of these are open 24 hours a day.  There is also a wealth of restaurants, bars and shops that maintain the same opening hours so if you are hungry or want to spend your winnings, there are plenty of options available, regardless of the time of day.
