Washington DC · Self-guided walk
The full Mall, the core, or the river approach. Three free routes, each one walked and each traced segment by segment, with the Metro at both ends.
Los Angeles · Self-guided walk
The stars, the Chinese Theatre forecourt, the Dolby — all free public sidewalk. Here's the route, west to east, and an honest answer to whether you need a tour.
Charleston · Self-guided walk
Cobblestones, pastel houses, and the harbor — most of it free to walk. Here's the route, north to south, and an honest note on the history the city carries.
New York City · Itinerary
Three days, sequenced the way the city's geography actually flows — the skyline, the harbor, the neighborhoods — each with the tour worth booking and the version you can do for free.
New Orleans · Itinerary
Two days, sequenced the way the city actually flows — the Quarter on foot, the bayou and the river, the history told honestly — each with the tour worth booking and the version you can do for free.
Charleston · Itinerary
Two days for the Holy City — the peninsula on foot, then water, table, and the history the district only gestures at — each with the tour worth booking and the version you can do for free.
San Diego · Itinerary
Two days for America's beach city — the coast and the caves, the bay and the Gaslamp, and an honest look at Old Town — each with the tour worth booking and the version you can do for free.
Nashville · Itinerary
Two days for Music City — Broadway and the honky-tonks, the history one street over, and the whiskey — each with the tour worth booking and the version you can do for free.
Las Vegas · Worth-it guide
West Rim or South Rim, coach or helicopter — the five Grand Canyon tours from Vegas worth your money, and an honest verdict on which one fits your day.
Key West · Worth-it guide
Trolley, walking tour, or haunted pub crawl — the three Key West ghost tours worth your night, and an honest verdict on which one fits.
Los Angeles · Worth-it guide
Open-air bus, VIP van, after dark, or celebrity homes — the Hollywood sightseeing tours worth your money, an honest verdict on which one fits, and when to just walk it free.
Dallas · Worth-it guide
Dallas food is a neighborhood thing — Deep Ellum's brisket, Bishop Arts' bakeries. One guided tasting walk is worth booking; here's when it beats doing it yourself, and when it doesn't.
Flagstaff · Worth-it guide
Road coach or the historic railway — the Grand Canyon tours worth your money from Flagstaff, the closest town to the South Rim, and an honest verdict on which one fits your day.
Washington DC · Worth-it guide
Evening bus, moonlight trolley, or open-air electric cart — the DC monuments-by-night tours worth booking, an honest verdict on which fits your evening, and what it costs you nothing to see on your own.
Boston · Itinerary
The trail is free and marked on the pavement. What it doesn't tell you is where to park, when the paid sites open, where to stop for lunch, or how to end the day — so that's what this plan is for.
Boston · Itinerary
One day for the Freedom Trail and the old city, one for Back Bay, the river and the harbor — with the tour worth booking at each turn and the version you can do for nothing.
Charleston · Worth-it guide
Three carriage rides worth booking, how the city's zones decide which streets you see, and the days a walking tour, the bus or your own two feet beat the horse.
