If you are planning a trip to Buenos Aires and fancy a break from the Tango dancing you might want to spend a night out at a casino.

The Casino de Buenos Aires or casino Buenos Aires was opened on 8th October 1999 and is situated on board the Estrella de la Fortuna, a reflective of a Mississippi riverboat of long gone times. This floating casino comprises of three decks that include over 100 tables games among which are a wide selection of roulette games, different kinds of poker, blackjack and 700 slot machines.

The Casino is situated in the historic Puerto Madero barrio, is open 24 hours and is free to enter.

The only downsides to the place is that there is no accommodation available in connection with the casino but with it being situated only 5 minutes from the centre of town  it should be within walking distance from several of Buenos Aires hotels.

If you would like to try out any of the games available in Casino de Buenos Aires before arrival why not try out an online slots. Most of these places offer a wide variety of slots games together with all your traditional casino games like poker and blackjack.

If you fancy a change in scenery a 40 minute drive from the centre of town will take you to Casino de Tigre. This casino has 1800 slots machines and 74 table games. It is cleaner and newer than the floating casino (having opened only a year after) and also has a hotel connected if you don’t fancy the ride back to Buenos Aires.
