Travelers explored amazing US destinations spanning from Galena, IL to Carmel, CA this month!
“Our trip to San Diego was nothing short of amazing. We toured the USS Midway Museum, rode a ferry to Coronado, saw lots of animals at the San Diego Zoo, and ate like kings and queens! Pack Up + Go hit the nail on the head with our interests. I couldn’t have planned the trip better myself. We loved every second and can’t wait to do it again!”

Destination: San Diego, CA
“Seattle is a fun city! There are so many good options. The drinks are on point and the city’s history is entertaining. My friend and I had such a good time at the Space Needle and exploring Pike’s Market.”
Travelers: Dlorah + Janna
Destination: Seattle, WA
“We couldn't have planned a better trip for ourselves. This wasn't a city I would have chosen, but it fit our needs perfectly and the tours and activities went beyond anything we could have imagined. I got to drink a mint julep at Churchill Downs! Once in a lifetime experience for me (so far!)!”

Destination: Louisville, KY
“I loved my Pack Up + Go Trip! We were recommended something for each day aside from one. We went to several things that we agreed we probably wouldn't have come up with on our own but we had a GREAT time. Austin, TX was a city with tons to do and they had us in a hotel right in the heart of downtown. It was great! I can't wait to Pack Up + Go on another trip :)”

Destination: Austin, TX
“This was the perfect family weekend getaway! Pack Up + Go really took the kids' interests into account. It was so easy and there was no fighting over where we should go on vacation but we didn't find out where we were going till the morning we loaded up the car and hit the road. The kids loved visiting Chicago (especially the food). They both wish we could have stayed an additional day or two. The whole family can't wait to book another trip. The youngest has already decided the next Pack Up + Go should be a flight somewhere.”

Destination: Chicago, IL
“We had an absolute blast in St. Pete. It was somewhere that we had never considered traveling before, but it was the perfect fit. From the amazing food to the beautiful scenery, it was exactly what we needed. Our hotel was within walking distance to so many things which was absolutely amazing. We will 100% be back there again to visit someday!”
Travelers: Emily + Jacob
Destination: St. Petersburg, FL
“I had an absolute blast. Pack Up + Go nailed it and really took into account all my preferences. I feel like this trip really was tailor-made for me from the activities planned to the alternative suggestions. Hands down I'll do it again!”

Destination: Epson, NH
“The food was great and we really loved the Cuban coffee every morning. The sunsets were breathtaking and spending the week walking and biking everywhere was so much fun.”
Travelers: Jessica + Ryan
Destination: Key West, FL
“We absolutely LOVED our trip. Pack Up + Go sent us to San Diego, to which we had never been (nor anywhere in California for that matter) and we were giddy as soon as we opened the envelope.
All the food recommendations we tried knocked it out of the park. We also felt that a lot of effort was put into planning the trip with our interests in mind! My girlfriend is very interested in black history, and Pack Up + Go recommended for us to visit the Casa Del Rey Moro Museum of African-Latin history. It was a very cool experience, and felt like such a niche find (it's a small operation run by one man in a small house) that it really showed us how much effort they put in and that they really consulted with someone who had local knowledge.
Overall, 10/10. We did not want to come home.”

“My husband and I were hesitant to be spontaneous for a trip that meant a lot for us. It was our first time away for more than a night after having our almost two-year-old and our first trip since the pandemic. We LOVED this trip. Austin, Texas was the perfect place to send us based on our travel preferences but not a place we would have thought to visit on our own. Even though we left feeling like there was so much more to do, the recommendations and location we were in allowed us to explore Austin through a lot of different lenses and interests. Thanks for a great trip!”
