With so many non-stop flights and multitude of airline carriers out of SFO/OAK/SJC- and a strong US Dollar- foreign travel has never been easier and affordable. We love dusting off our passports and getting off the beaten path and we are sure you do too... so check out these sweet places for yourself and get inspired to take that little booklet out for some fun!
URBAN DIVERSION'S TOP 5 PLACES TO USE YOUR PASSPORT THIS YEAR
- Cabo San Lucas
- Year round temperate weather plus a short flight from Bay Area make this an ideal long weekend get-a-way. Bonus points for being a majorly adventuresome destination- zip lining, surfing, off-roading and sailing are just a few ways to get the adrenaline pumping! Whether its enjoying a Margarita after a day of sea kayaking at the Sand Bar (our fav place to get an afternoon drink) or hiking to the top of Mt. Solmar for a sunset view- we love Cabo and know you will too. Want some adventure without the hassle of planning it all? Check out Urban Diversion's Surf Trip to Cabo!
- Hong Kong
- One of the most culturally diverse places in Asia, Hong Kong has a long history of being a world-class destination. With 88% of the population speaking English (and most signs in English and Chinese) this is a super easy place to navigate & enjoy on holiday. We recommend day tripping to the hidden beaches of Sai Kung for a surfing, swimming or canoeing. For those that really want a challenge- tackle the 1800 ft climb to the top of Victoria Peak and enjoy breathtaking views of the city, harbor and beaches.
- Ireland
- We find that its darn near impossible to have a bad time in Ireland.... no matter what happens. While its a gorgeous country- the people of Ireland make the entire country fabulous and every inch of this green land is worth visiting. We love the traditional atmosphere of the Western coast with coastal hikes that rival Big Sur and cant get enough of the hospitality of Dublin- many a lifelong friends were made in the famous pubs of Dublin! Ireland is one of our favorite locations- so much so- Urban Diversion has decided to invite everyone on our next Irish Adventure Road Trip! So come share our love of the Irish hills, castles, pubs and people and have a trip of a lifetime with us!
- Colombia
- With one foot in the Pacific and one in the Caribbean plus a whole lotta jungle- Colombia has adventure to spare. We love the national park area of Tayrona (Parque Tayrona) for its beautiful white sand beaches and crystal clear waters at the base of stunning (Sierra Nevada style) mountains- this area is a scuba/snorkel/swimmers paradise! We found a new love in the passionate music & dance of Cumbia... no one is immune to the catchy beats and sassy rhythm- do yourself a favor and check out Garia Cafe Cumbia House in Bogota for an experience you will never forget!
- Alaska
- OK... we know that you dont need a passport to go to Alaska, but its still a prime place to trip for 2015. Why? Because its an adventures dream- ice climbing, backpacking, kayaking, glaciers, bears, camping.... its got everything you need to make your adventure quotient go through the roof! We cant wait to ice climb in Wrangell St. Elias national park this summer and see the bears and cubs in Denali.... want to join in on the adventure? Check out our entire Alaska itinerary and make 2015 a year of trips, travel and excitement!
