While most think of Denver first when it comes to microbreweries and local brews like Coors, the mile-high city came in as runner up, with Portland, Oregon taking the top spot. Portland can keep beer lovers busy for days, but it also has dozens of festivals, outdoor adventures and delicious food to make for a well-rounded vacation.
Solo trips have started to gain popularity, but many eager travelers don’t know where to start. Our survey findings uncovered that Boulder, Colorado is the perfect place to get your feet wet when it comes to being a lone wolf. With frequently traveled hiking travels and friendly locals, it will push you out of your comfort zone while ensuring you feel safe as you explore the sights from Pearl Street to the Flatirons.
Seasons are Changing
For those aiming to plan their trips around the seasons, we found great spots to add to your 2019 list. For the best fall colors, check out winning destination, Bar Harbor Maine, or runner up Catskills, NY. For the best winter destinations and places for non-skiers and powder pros alike, our travelers chose Vail, Colorado, Anchorage, Alaska, Aspen, Colorado and Jackson Hole, Wyoming as their top picks.
Beach bum season is almost here, and survey says Hilton Head, South Carolina and St. Augustine, Florida are the top places to relax in the sand and check out all the towns have to offer. Want to add other places to your summer travel bucket list? If you’re looking for a weekend getaway, we’ve uncovered both a west coast and east coast option for you – San Diego, California and Cape Cod, Massachusetts made the top of the list, offering fun activities for both families and couples.
