Spring (April–June) and Fall (September–November) when the cities bloom and the autumn leaves turn Instagram gold. Summers can be hot and muggy, but this is still my favorite time to visit because I love sunshine! Winters can be, well, frigid.
Late fall to early spring (October–April) when humidity takes a vacation and hurricane season is safely at bay. Summers are hot and steamy, but hey, that’s what beaches are for!
Late spring (May–June) and early fall (September–October). Winter? Let’s just say unless you’re building a snowman, you might want to skip it.
Fall (September–November) and spring (March–May) when the desert heat won’t fry your flip-flops. Summer can reach serious oven status.
All year, depending on what you’re after! Spring and fall bring the best weather for cities and hikes, summer is glorious on the beaches, and winter is perfect for Northern California wine country.
Winter (December–March) for ski enthusiasts; summer (June–September) for hikers and national park junkies.
Alaska: Summer (June–August) for long days and mild temps.
Hawaii: Spring and fall (April–June, September–November) when it’s less crowded and still warm.
Embrace the road trip. Rent a car and hit the highways—some of the best experiences hide between the big cities.
Whether you’re chasing the bright lights of New York City or that off-the-beaten-path diner in Kansas, the USA makes getting there an adventure all its own. Touch down at the big hitters like JFK, LAX, or Chicago O’Hare—think of them as your travel launchpads. Domestic flights are everywhere, but if you want to take the scenic route, Amtrak’s long-haul train rides let you soak up the rolling hills, deserts, and small towns you might otherwise miss (pro tip: snag a window seat). For the ultimate road trip? Rent a car and get lost on Route 66, or take the Pacific Coast Highway—trust me, I’ve done it, and it’s worth every mile.
Ports like Miami, Los Angeles, New York, and Seattle welcome cruise travelers in style. You can dock in bustling cities, hop off for local excursions, and reboard with a sunburn and a smile. Popular cruise lines (Carnival, Royal Caribbean, and Norwegian) make it easy to start or end your journey by sea, perfect for those who want to see the skyline from a deck chair with a piña colada in hand.

If you’re a foodie visiting Tucson, the @secretfoodtours Tucson experience is truly worth it. 🌮✨ We had Ellie as our guide and she made the city’s flavors come alive, blending Native, Mexican, Sonoran, and Old Pueblo influences into stories that made every bite even better.
If your budget allows, I recommend booking a personal tour for the most immersive experience (unless you love the group vibe!). But even on your own, you can follow the flavor trail:
🌭 @rolliestucson for a classic Sonoran Hot Dog
🫖 @scentedleaf for tea
🍕 @empirepizzatucson for the Elote Pizza
🌽 @themonicatucson for a tamale
🍧 @raspaderiaelsahuaro_ for a refreshing raspado
Just skip Sundays too many spots close, and you’ll miss some must-try stops!
