Summer has arrived, so it’s time to plan a vacation and some day trips. Deciding what to do can be difficult, but TripAdvisor did a little research, a little surveying, and a little analysis to help vacationers like us make the most of our travel experience.
They timed their information gathering perfectly for the summer vacation season, and have come out with its annual Travelers’ Choice Awards Best of the Best “Things to Do” list, described as “a definitive list of extraordinary experiences for travelers looking to create memorable moments.”
Most cities have attractions that visitors won’t want to miss, but they have narrowed it down to some of the best ones in the country and the world. Therefore, based on their user reviews, TripAdvisor has singled out the top place you might want to visit.
I’ve listed their top five United States attractions below, however, if you are headed out of the country for your vacation, you may want to think about Barcelona, Spain, where the Basilica de la Sagrada Familia was named the Top International Attraction, followed by The Colosseum in Rome, Italy, and the Anne Frank House in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
A complete list of top attractions, and other great experiences, can be found at TripAdvisor.com, but here are the top five in the U.S. with three of them easy to drive to.
