Contrary to what you may be picturing, Death Valley National Park is not a barren wasteland. You’ll find mountains, hiking, sand dunes, salt flats and more across the 3.3 million acres that make up Death Valley National Park.

One sight that you’ll see pop up again and again on itineraries in Copenhagen is Tivoli Gardens. So, it’s no surprise that I added it to my own itinerary, despite being skeptical of whether it would actually be worth it. For some travelers, I think that this is an excellent addition to a Copenhagen itinerary, …
One Stockholm day trip option is to venture out to Drottningholm to tour Drottningholm Slott, a Swedish Royal Palace. Sure, you could tour the Royal Palace in Stockholm, but I think that there’s a completely different feel the two palaces, even if you just visit the exteriors. So in this guide, I’m going to walk …
