Has anyone taken a trip to the Biloxi casinos using Trinity VIP Travel? They offer a 3 night trip with pick up in Spanish Springs. I'm wondering if they are any good.

My neighbors go 2X a year and they are not gamblers. They love the Beau Rivage Hotel and the shopping. They go with a group every Christmas and love the Christmas decorations at the Hotel. They say it's the best deal in town. Remember you will be on a bus for approximately 8 hours with 2 or three stops.

I took this trip last year with my 84-yr-old mom - we stayed at the Beau. The hotel was fabulous. The rest of the trip... well, sucked. The bus was old, shopworn - seats broken, carpet ripped. The guide did her best - she was engaging and made an effort to know everyone's name on the bus! There was a movie, snacks, little gift package. But the food? The bus pulled in to an area that allowed a 'choice' of 3 restaurants. But 1 was across the busy highway. Not an option for many of the "older" crowd on board. We chose the closes one - with a country theme - and waited in line for at almost 1/2 hour before being seated. Not terrible -except the bus was heading out in another 30 minutes. On the way back??? Don't ask. They pulled into a food court in a dying strip mall that I KNOW hasn't seen a food inspector in 20 years.
This year, we'll go back to the Beau - the Christmas decorations were outstanding, as was the hotel and the staff. But we'll drive this time. This way, we can pick and choose the casinos we want to visit - on our own timetable.

Trinity advertises a trip to Key West. Anyone been on that trip? Any advice?
