Sunrise at the Grand Canyon – one of the most breathtaking moments I’ve ever had.

Since the beginning of the pandemic, national parks have continued to be among the most popular vacation destinations in the U.S. In fact, in the most recent listing of the best places to visit in the USA from US News and World Report, Grand Canyon National Park is in the No. 1 spot, followed by Yellowstone National Park, and Yosemite National Park. Among the remaining destinations in the top 10, Glacier National Park ranked 5^th, with Zion National Park #6 and Grand Teton National Park at #9.

What you may not picture though, is everything that goes into organizing this perfect, and stress-free, vacation.

Which brings me to today’s post about the “best way to see the USA”. You can pick your destination and begin to plan, spending hours researching everything there is to know, reading hundreds of reviews online for hotels and dining options, figuring out how you’re going to get there (and if you want to see multiple destinations, how you’re going to get from one to the next), all the while wondering what you’ve missed, and if you’re paying too much.
