    Stop into the Atlantic City Expressway Welcome Center on your way to Atlantic City. It's located on the Atlantic City expressway just before you reach the city. The people are very friendly and helpful. They gave us some really good coupons for meals and fun, 1 was worth $20.00 for lunch, buy one get one buffet at the Trump Plaza, which was really good food and service. So stop by and check it out for your discounts.

    Let's Get Ready to GAMBLE!

    Atlantic City New Jersey is a gambling and resort community located on Absecon Island on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean that is the second largest in it's kind after las vegas in the United States. Since I stayed at the philadelphia suburb of lansdale at my nephews house, I've learned that this is a favorite destination of pennsylvanians (my nephew was an gambler) when they want to gamble since gambling here is legal unlike in pennsylvania and that it is just a 2 hour drive from philadelphia via the walt whitman bridge then off to the Atlantic City Expressway.
    Atlantic city was like a miniature vegas and the big vegas casinos like harrah's, ceasar's, bally's are there.

    Aside from the endless casino's and binge eating and lap dance hehe, the best would be the factory premium outlet shopping of which atlantic city is the first to offer it within city limits since factory outlets are usually one to 2 hour drive from major urban areas into the exurbs. Only oregon will be better since it has no sales tax!

    Over the years, the casinos here have really changed the look of the casinos..they all have their own theme and parts of casinos are decorated specially to reflect a certain theme.Here at Bally's its the " Wild Wild West" theme and they have animated shows too ,every 15 minutes or so,right outside the wild wild west section.its nice for families and visitors.

    For the 3rd year in a row, Atlantic City hosts a free air show on the beach. The center location to see all is at Historic Boardwalk Hall, right next to Trump Plaza.
    This is fast becoming a favorite of tourists & locals alike & it's free for the watching. Just go out to the beach, sit down & enjoy! The beach is free also, no beach tag needed, you may bring coolers & chairs or rent any of the numerous cabanas in the beach bars or free standing. It occures every year at the end of August, so feel free to plan your trip then & come see me too!

    The tang of salt in the air, the crashing of the waves against the shore, the call of gulls winging overhead along with the shouts of excited children & the lifeguards whistle are what set this air show apart from all others.

    Casino Cards

  • Many people think that having a casino card, is simply for gambeling. I can assure you, it is not just for gambeling. Casino cards, are like discount cards. With them, you will get half off parking in the garages - which is a plus , at the taj , you get free parking ( but only if you have your card up front )

    Visit Cesear's Palace and take a photograph with one of the Romans, Cesear or Cleopatra.

    *** Please note, I have been to Ceasar's numerous times since this tip was made and have not seen anyone walking around in costume, it is possible that it no longer exists.***

    Talk a walk on the boardwalk. Itīs a wooden boulevard between the hotel casinos and the beach. Street artists, musicians and tourists make this car-free zone a fun place. It is a mixture of Las Vegas and a typical tourist beach resort with souvenir shops and small fast food shops.

    walk the boardwalk. This is America's first boardwalk. The famous wooden walkway offers 4 1/2 miles to stroll and sightsee. No matter where you go, the Atlantic Ocean is always in sight.
