Trip to the City
On the opposite end of the spectrum is a trip to the big city. Car horns, construction noise, and muffled chatter create a soundtrack for an amazing metropolitan adventure.
This type of vacation is perfect for those who love the wilds of the concrete jungle, enjoys dinner and a show, or wants to channel their inner Carrie Bradshaw. This type of vacation is a nightmare for people who hate crowds, hustle and bustle, or the tiresome pavement beneath their feet.
Pros
-
A veritable plethora of activities, from dining to shows to museums and more
-
The convenience of plentiful flights and easy transportation
-
The awe of feeling impossibly small and endlessly entertained
Cons
-
Crowds. Lots of them (which become exponentially worse around major holidays)
-
Like any busy destination, big cities tend to have higher crime rates (so keep tabs on your belongings and be aware of your surroundings)
-
The shimmering lights don’t come without a price tag, so be prepared for a little sticker shock when it comes to the cost of things
