We encounter various cities on TV, and we hear firsthand travel stories from family and friends, but in order to truly appreciate a place, we have to visit it ourselves. Is Chicago actually windy? Is Philadelphia really the city of brotherly love? Are Denver rivers truly filled with gold? We could tell you our impressions and you could take our word for it, OR you could experience the places for yourself. America is filled with destinations that are as uniquely wonderful as they are distinctive. So when you're considering places you'd like to visit, we encourage you to add these 10 cities to your bucket list. Not only are they exceptional in their own right, but our terrific travel deals make visiting them even more enjoyable and affordable.
