What's the closest casino to Israel?

Limassol in Cyprus — about an hour's flight, and the most common destination among Israelis.

Which destination is cheapest?

Batumi in Georgia, mainly because of low flight costs and hotel prices.

Is there a casino in Dubai?

No classic casino. There are regulatory developments in the Gulf, but no casino scene like Cyprus or Greece.

Is entry always age 21?

No. Some countries allow entry from 18, others from 21 — check the casino's website before traveling.

One reminder runs through this whole page: the house edge is the same everywhere, and the math doesn't change with the scenery.

Which game to choose once you arrive

The difference between games is real money: blackjack and craps with a low house edge, roulette in the middle, and slots at the high end. The full explanation is on the house edge page.

The alternative without flying

If the goal is a game you can improve at and play against other players instead of the house — poker does that from home, in Hebrew, with an Israeli community: ClubGG Israel, weekly tournaments, and free tables for practice.
