National Parks, but make them affordable!
Summer in the US National Parks has started with a bang! Here at Good Trip, we’ve spent most of our days leading trips in Yellowstone, Grand Teton, Grand Canyon, Yosemite, Arches, Canyonlands, and more! We’re grateful to spend time in these beautiful places, and we recognize what a privilege it is to have access to the outdoors.
Many people dream of the big American road-trip, but when visiting multiple parks, expenses can start to add up, especially with the National Park entrance fees.
Did you know there are many National Parks that don’t charge entrance fees at all! 😱 And most (even the big name parks) have free admission days throughout the year!
