10 Concerts & Shows in Atlantic City That You Shouldn't Miss
It's the East Coast's answer to Las Vegas. Atlantic City's casinos draw tourists by the car- and bus-load, but even if your main objective is to play some blackjack, you'll want to save time for sightseeing. Stroll along the famous boardwalk with its numerous amusements and eateries or visit the historic, recently restored Absecon Lighthouse. Several fine courses attract golf enthusiasts, and in summer, local beaches are popular with families. Water-based activities include parasailing, charter fishing and tall ship cruises. Casino hoppers have 12 establishments to choose from, which run the gamut from elegance to a Wild West theme, so there's something for everyone's taste. Those who remember Atlantic City in its pre-gambling days can wax nostalgic with a taste of saltwater taffy, which has been an Atlantic City specialty for over 100 years.

We took the 2 hour behind-the-scenes curator's tour (Wednesdays at 10:00 AM). The tour was amazing and the volunteers did an excellent job showing off the largest organ (and largest musical instrument period) on the planet. The organ is undergoing restoration and you get to see the workshop as well as the rooms with the pipes (they range in size from 3/8" to 64 feet high). The tour is followed by a 30 minute organ concert. Very well worth the time. Also, the tour is free with a suggested donation of $10/person to be used towards the restoration.
