I’ve been to all 50 states. Here’s one thing I recommend doing in each.

• I’ve traveled to all 50 states and am often asked about the best things to do in each one.
• When I’m in Arizona, I love visiting bucket-list attractions like the Grand Canyon.
• I also like visiting lesser-known spots like Monument Rocks in Kansas and the Art Coast in Michigan.

After visiting all 50 states solo, I’m often asked for recommendations on the best things to do in each one. Although every state offers countless things to do and see, there are some activities and places that really stand out from the crowd.

Whether it’s a unique experience, a hidden gem, or a landmark so iconic it’s worth braving the crowds for — some destinations just have to be seen to be believed.
