Fire Mountain, LANSING

In life, there are few things better than pulling the arm of a slot machine, watching the wheels spin their mad dance, and hearing the klaxons that signal a big, fat jackpot. In fact, the only thing that might rank higher is "doing that exact thing, except on a cruise ship." That dream becomes reality at Blue Horizon Casino Cruises, where players live the lives of Vegas-style gamblers aboard a well-appointed cruise ship. After taking on passengers in Palm Beach, the ship heads to international waters, where players can partake in games ranging from slots and bingo to craps, roulette, and blackjack. The gaming isn't the only facet of Vegas found aboard Blue Horizon's cruises; guests can also hit the buffet at Rebecca's Grille, grab tapas-style bites at K.T. & Jessie's Place, or revel in live music at Deck Three's lounge.
