Memorial Day Weekend Vacation Alternatives<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have ever tried to plan a getaway for Memorial Day weekend, then you have likely found it quite difficult.  Everything seems to be booked up well before the arrival of the holiday and what\u2019s left is high-priced and packed with weekend travelers.  You can avoid all that by visiting somewhere that doesn\u2019t observe the holiday weekend.  Below are a few options you can discuss with your travel agent so that you can finally find a place to enjoy a Memorial Day weekend getaway:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1.      Toronto, Canada \u2013 <\/strong>Once you cross the border into Canada you no longer have to worry about Memorial Day weekend crowds and what better place to experience the country than the city of Toronto.  Toronto is chock full of great restaurants, places to explore and opportunities to experience cultural diversity at its best.  The weather is nicer in May but not yet hot and the busy season hasn\u2019t started yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2.      Cabo San Lucas, Mexico \u2013 <\/strong>Not far from the U.S. and fairly affordable in May, Cabo San Lucas is a fantastic place to get away from the Memorial Day weekend crowds.  Its close proximity makes ideal for a long weekend trip and the temperatures are borderline balmy, which is a nice change after experiencing the colder weather of winter in the states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3.      Paris, France \u2013 <\/strong>Europe is popular for Memorial Day weekend getaways and is much more affordable than the summer months during this time.  You will find that this is a great time to visit Paris if this has been something you\u2019ve been wanting to do.  It is the beginning of the season for events and if you go at the right time you might be able to catch a jazz festival or one of any number of exciting events hosted in the city. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even if you leave the country during Memorial Day weekend you can celebrate the holiday in your own way.  Take advantage of the slower season elsewhere and experience a Memorial Day weekend vacation like never before. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
