Kings Canyon and Sequoia National Parks are managed together, so it’s easy to think that the two parks would be similar. Yes, you’ll find giant sequoia trees at both parks, but at Kings Canyon National Park, you’ll also find the deepest canyon in the United States. Kings Canyon plunges 8,200 feet from its top height …
Sequoia National Park is one of nine national parks in California and it’s home to towering sequoia trees. While you’ll find some of the largest trees in the world, there’s more to do at this park than just stare at trees. Get out and hike. Drive a very windy, but scenic mountain road. Climb a …
Villa de Leyva is a small, colonial town that’s just three hours from the Colombia’s capital of Bogotá. The highlight for many is wandering the streets and enjoying the beauty of this picturesque town. With just one day in Villa de Leyva, you can experience all of the highlights of this small town without feeling …
Bogotá is the capital of Colombia and it’s where many travelers start their trips. With many international flights arriving to Bogotá’s El Dorado airport, it just makes sense to add a day to your itinerary. While there is so much to see outside of Colombia’s capital city, I think it’s still worth spending one day …
Located in Ohio, Cuyahoga Valley National Park feels different. Typically when you think of a national park, you think of the mountains and ruggedness that’s found out west in places like Glacier or Yosemite.

However, this guide will focus on East Glacier. This is ideal for anyone staying in Many Glacier, St. Mary, or Two Medicine. …
Zion National Park is beautiful. Ask anyone who’s ever visited and they’ll be sure to tell you about how amazing it is and how you could spend days exploring the park. Well, not everyone has days to spend at one park. So, I put together what I think is a perfect itinerary for one day …
It’s no secret that my first visit to Bryce Canyon didn’t go well. Rain and fog are not conducive to exploring a national park. But, I returned two and a half years later for redemption. I still haven’t done everything at Bryce Canyon National Park (the weather seriously has it out for me!), but I’ve …
Oslo is the capital and largest city of Norway, so many Norwegian itineraries start or end here. While there is incredible beauty all over Norway, I think it’s still worth dedicating one day of your itinerary to exploring Oslo. With one day in Oslo, you’ll have just enough time to visit a museum, wander the …
Stockholm is the capital of Sweden and it offers a lot for tourists. In most cities, I feel like I can cover the highlights in a day and after that I’m ready to move on. While I covered a lot of ground during my one day in Stockholm (technically a day and a half but …
