Plan smart

Explore active entertainment. Nobody ever said lying on the beach was the only way to relax. When choosing a vacation destination, look into a spot where you can go hiking, zip lining or even country line dance the night away — whatever moves you.

Stay where it's walkable. When looking at hotel or vacation rentals, spend some time exploring online to see what's around. Consider whether there are sidewalks, bike lanes, mass transit options or amenities you'd enjoy within walking distance.

A trendy neighborhood that has attractions you can walk to may cost a bit more. But consider if you'll save money by walking instead of paying for taxis or parking.
