More Than Gambling
There’s plenty of fun to be had in Oklahoma outside of the casinos, so if you can drag yourself away from the incredible gaming floors, you might want to try some of these:
- Outdoor Adventures – If you love the outdoors, then head to one of the scenic spots in the Sooner state such as Turner Falls Park which has Oklahoma’s tallest waterfall with swimming holes and hiking trails. There’s also great hiking opportunities at Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge where you can see bison and longhorns too. Alternatively, take a drive through the Ouachita Mountains on the Talimena Scenic Drive.
- Oklahoma City – There’s so much to see and do in Oklahoma City including visiting the National Cowboy & Western Heritage, going to Scissortail Park for the gardens and lake or hanging out in trendy Bricktown with all the cool restaurants and bars
- Route 66 Stops – If you love all of the Route 66 nostalgia and roadside Americana then Oklahoma has plenty. The famous Blue Whale of Catoosa is here which is a classic Route 66 icon. Other points of interest include the Arcadia Round Barn and Pops 66 Soda Ranch with its towering soda bottle and 700+ kinds of soda inside.
- Fun Days Out – If you’re looking for a great day out for all the family there’s plenty to choose from such as Claremont Lake Park Splash Pad, Snider Family Exotics, Blue Zoo Aquarium, Shawnee Splash Water Park and Nomad's Animal Encounter.
Important Considerations
The legal age for gambling in Oklahoma tribal casinos is 18 years and over. However, some casinos might have restricted areas for 21 years and over such as places where alcohol is sold or poker rooms. It is always advisable to call ahead to check and take along photographic ID.
