Updated on 2/23/2023 at 3:40 PM

While your 20s are a great time to get out and explore new cultures, you don't want to forget to take advantage of the diverse destinations right here in the United States. Even if it's a quick weekend trip, finding places to travel in the US will feed that desire of wanderlust in just a few hours by simply hopping on a train or taking a road trip.

From big, popular cities to laid-back coastlines, the United States is made up of so many unique spots that it could be hard to decide where to go next. Whether you're a foodie who's looking to try a new cuisine, or a nature-lover who wants to hike the canyons, we've rounded up the best places to travel in the US if you're in your 20s.

Los Angeles, CA

Los Angeles should be a must-visit destination, mostly because of its year-round pleasant weather and great selection of food and culture. There's everything from the Santa Monica Pier to Beverly Hills — and the Hollywood sign, of course. For exceptional service, stay at Aka West Hollywood , which has amenities such as a residents-only bar and lounge, a pool with panoramic views, a private screening room, a 24-hour fitness center, and more.

Reno Tahoe, NV

Reno Tahoe offers outdoor adventure, delicious cuisine, and a thriving art scene. Visitors can check into the Whitney Peak Hotel , a boutique, active-lifestyle and pet-friendly property with an onsite music venue, Cargo Concert Hall, and indoor rock-climbing gym. While in town, grab a bite to eat and try a beer flight nearby at The Depot , Nevada's first combined brewery and distillery. Groups can also book a Reno Brew Bike to pedal together around town with their own local guide, stopping at all of Reno's best pubs.

New Orleans, LA

New Orleans offers a rich array of cultural activities, allowing travelers to feed their curiosity, indulge in delicious meals, and engage in exciting events all in one trip.

The city continues to celebrate its rich history of French and American culture through additions to its diverse architecture, museums, extraordinary cuisine, vibrant music scene and nightlife, and more, allowing travelers to gain the most bang for their buck.

The main reason Tucson is great? It's an extremely affordable city. Whether it's tasting delicious Mexican food, enjoying live music downtown, or grabbing vintage wear that will be the envy of your friends, there's a ton to do. Tucson manages to be easy to get to but is still off the beaten path, and is filled with Instagram-worthy cacti, murals, and more.

New York, NY

It's called the "city that never sleeps" for a reason. New York City should be on every traveler's bucket list. Manhattan's burgeoning NoMad area is a good place for people in their 20s because it's located in the heart of Manhattan and is the center of many of New York's unique shopping areas.

Baltimore, MD

Aside from the fact that there are several universities in or near Baltimore, the city is a fun destination for travelers.

Within the destination, there's been an influx of cool hotel openings, like Bode Nashville , a group-friendly hotel category perfect for friends who want to travel together.

Having recently undergone a transformation over the last couple of years, Durham is an emerging city, making it one of the most moved-to cities for young people. New, funky hotels are opening (such as The Durham and the 21c Hotel ), hip lounges are serving craft cocktails and locally brewed beer and cider, and small boutiques are quickly filling up once-abandoned streets.

Kansas City, MO

Kansas City, MO — yes, located in Missouri — is an underrated getaway for hard-working young professionals. Spend a long weekend eating your way through the city (and country's) top-rated BBQ joints like Joe's KC and Jack Stack . Then, depending on the season, catch a Royals baseball game , a Kansas City Chiefs football game , a Sporting KC soccer match , or a KC Current soccer match .

With endless fun things to do and delicious things to eat, Miami is a must-visit hot spot. When you're not checking out the beach, check out Miami's swanky art district that will keep anyone dancing all-night long.

Austin is a popular travel destination for young professionals and students, mostly because of its thriving nightlife, weekend events, and some of the best BBQ in the country.

Aside from all of the outdoor fun, such as swimming with horses and see-through kayaking with manatees, St. Pete is an epicenter for arts and culture.

Chicago, IL

Chicago is constantly on the top of every travel list. It's easy to get to and offers so many activities, from shopping to nightlife and museums. The one must do is to take an architecture cruise down the Chicago River and learn about the city's famed buildings and the history behind them.
