Searching for a good casino in Africa is a bit of a needle in a haystack exercise and when you consider that the continent consists of 54 countries in total, the first problem is finding the right haystack. It would be much easier to stick to a mobile casino, however if you stick to the main tourist destinations in Africa then at least you can be assured of finding at least a few popular casinos.
Even if you find yourself in some of the countries that are not particularly favoured by tourists, for instance if you if you are visiting Africa for work, there are a surprising number of casinos you can try. While you wonít find any legal casinos in Chad which is said to be the most dangerous country in the world, you will find quite a number in Nigeria. The best casinos in Lagos are the Green Lion Casino and the Excelsior Hotel & Casino. As throughout most of the continent, these are open only to foreign nationals so you will need your passport to gain entry.
If you are looking for a casino resort where you can play casino games, enjoy some golf, and go exploring in the jungle, then one of the better locations for you is likely to be Sun City in South Africaís Northwest province just a few hoursí drive away from Johannesburg. As well as an excellent casino there is a full professional 18 hole golf course and an amazing magical garden palace as well as easy access to the wild life game parks.
For a very different kind of gaming experience there are some fascinating casinos in Cairo, the gambling capital of Egypt. For some Egyptian splendour check out the Omar Khayyam Casino; this excellent casino is housed in the Cairo Marriott Hotel, and you can relax in the lobby and enjoy a little tobacco in a traditional hookah. The hotel is also a great location for exploring the city and the pyramids, though stay clear of the vast necropolis of al-Arafa.
