Not every vacation is right for every traveler.
New York is exciting, but crowded.
Orlando is magical, but touristy.
Boston is historic, but winters can be harsh.
At Should I Travel To, every city is evaluated using the same consistent framework so you can decide which destination fits your travel style.
Featured Destinations
If you’re visiting the United States for the first time, or want to explore a new destination, these are some of the country’s most iconic city vacations.
New York City

World-class attractions, incredible food, and endless things to do, but expect crowds and high prices.
Los Angeles

The entertainment capital, diverse neighborhoods, and perfect weather, but expect a car-dependent experience.
Orlando

Unmatched theme parks, family-friendly fun, and year-round sun, but expect crowds, tourist zones, and summer heat.
What Makes Should I Travel To … Different?
Travel Isn’t One-Size-Fits-All
Most travel websites tell you why every destination is worth visiting.
We think every trip involves tradeoffs.
That’s why every city is evaluated using the same ten categories, including:
- Cost & Value
- Weather
- Crowds
- Walkability & Transportation
- Things to Do
We don’t tell you where to travel.
We help you decide.
