Doing some traveling. Need some input on what to do in these cities?

Bennyshoe · Aug 20, 2010

Next month I'll be doing a lot of traveling thanks to JetBlue's All You Can Fly pass. Want to visit cities I've never been to before. So I am wondering what is a must see or interesting place in these cities. Any input would be great. Still working on my itinerary. Might include some NFL or MLB games as well.

Seattle
Phoenix
Denver
Chicago
Pittsburgh
Baltimore
Portland
San Diego
Austin
San Francisco
Buffalo

Can you be more specific? How long do you have? What are you looking to do? Are you the 'I'm looking to get wasted at a concert guy', 'I want to see the sites guy', or the 'I'm looking for unique things in each city guy'?

Also, who are you traveling with?

Add Boise to the list if you want to experience the greatest state ever.

do yourself a favor and dont go to buffalo its a pathetic city hit niagra falls canada or toronto its nicer than any city you named except for san fran and san diego, baltimore is also crap, pittsburgh is all about a sporting event or dont bother the best thing about seattle is that your close to vancouver, I loved golfing in phoenix.

The same thing is said of jacksonville and its fine if you do the right things. As a matter of fact, st Augustine just a half hour south is a must.

:lolBIG: Especially during the winter months!

The only reason to go to Idaho now would be to check out the SMURF TURF in Boise!

Seeing the 2010 National Champs play is just a bonus.

Sorry. Should have been more clear. I'll be in the cities 1-2 days depending on what there is to see. I'm into touristy stuff. See the sights. I'll be traveling by myself.

Pittsburgh...PNC Park for sure, Steelers tickets are tough to get, rent a kayak and hit the rivers, lots of bike trails along the river, frank lloyd wright's fallingwater is about an hour away and stunning....2 casinos in the area with tables games...meadows 30 mins outside of the city also has harness racing, eat a primanti brothers sandwich, go to the strip district on a saturday morning

Baltimore...Inner Harbor, aquarium is cool, shoot to annapolis and check out the naval academy stuff, 3rd saturday in may is the preakness go to the grandstand for some class go to the infield for bottomless beer and topless women, eat some crab cakes, do some crabbing in the bay

San Francisco is one of my fav places in the world also, I would also add the following to this list:

Alcatraz Tour - ideally see if you can get the night tour, sadly it is limited space and you normally have to book a few days in advance and so far I have never been able to book it as both times I have been there for just a couple nights. A day tour is good, but I found it hard to get a real feel of what it must have been like when there were a thousand other tourists roaming the place.

Also in terms of a decent bar check out The Redwood Room, which is at the Clift Hotel in downtown - its quite a trendy place, but I was just in awe of the place when I was in there earlier this year.

In terms of a Sports Bar, there is one called Players at the end of Pier 39 on the waterfront which was good, but nothing special.
