Finding the best destination to spend reading week is always tough, but it’s very exciting to plan a trip with a group of close friends. Make it memorable, make it fun. Sun, Snow, Beach or Slopes, there is always something for someone.
Here are a few places we would like to suggest to you:
United States, Las Vegas, NV
With several different travel dates still available…Welcome to Vegas where the slogan routinely says: What Happens in Vegas Stays in Vegas! It sunny, warm and if you can think of wanting to do something, you can find a place to do here. While there are no activities included with the flight and room costs, the activities are wide open and can include tours of the Hoover Dam, helicopter tours, horseback riding, shopping, gambling and more!
Cuba, Cayo Santa Maria
Enjoy visiting the island that is connected to the town of Caibarién on the main island by a bridge and a road. It’s a hot spot for reading week for their inclusive package offerings. From the fun in the sun, to water activities, to the 9 bars, the diverse restaurant options, and of course the beautiful beaches. The activities are as endless as the drinks!
United States, Myrtle Beach, SC
Not exactly the warmest time of year to attract the masses of students but it’s definitely a popular destination. The fun is still there with many of the bars, restaurants and activities remaining open to cater to the college groups. You can expect to save upwards of 50% off of normal vacation rates as well.
United States, Gatlinburg, TN
