If you want to attempt an impossible task, try coming up with a list of the best things to do in the United States.\u00a0 The country is so large and so diverse, a trendy, new American attraction seems to emerge every couple of weeks.\u00a0 So, by now, you\u2019d have just as much trouble compiling a complete list of tours, tickets, and trails as you would hand-picking the best of the lot.\u00a0 Therefore, we decided to break up the following list into the various types of activities in which you might wish to participate during a U.S. Tour:<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Historical Things To Do:\u00a0 Old City, Philadelphia<\/h4>\n

\"best-things<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For having such a short history, you\u2019ll still find a ton of historical things to do in the United States.\u00a0 From the Freedom Trail in Boston<\/a> to the National Mall in Washington D.C., countless U.S. attractions harken back to the founding of our nation.\u00a0 But, perhaps the best way to get in touch with America\u2019s past is taking a Philadelphia tour<\/a>.\u00a0 Independence Hall, where our founding fathers debated and adopted the U.S. Constitution, and the world-famous Liberty Bell draw in millions of history buffs from around the world, every year.\u00a0 And, the City of Brotherly Love delivers a history lesson to each and every one of them.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Adventurous Things To Do:\u00a0 The Grand Canyon<\/h4>\n

\"best-things<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When Americans think about adventure within the United States, many of us envision explorers blazing a trail to the Pacific Ocean and pioneers heading west.\u00a0 And, when we imagine the western wilderness, it\u2019s the Grand Canyon<\/a> that often first pops into our minds. \u00a0The sheer enormity, ancientness, and overall aesthetic of this natural wonder have made the classic Grand Canyon tour<\/a> a symbol for American adventure.\u00a0 And, regardless of whether you cover ground in a bus, 4×4, or on foot, you can rest assured that you\u2019ll find it one of the most adventurous things to do in the United States.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Artsy Things To Do:\u00a0 Bushwick Street Art Tour<\/h4>\n

\"best-things<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Most of us don\u2019t display much in the way of artistic talent.\u00a0 We either don\u2019t have the patience, creativity, or both.\u00a0 However, America as a country demonstrates considerable skill in the arts, especially when it comes to writing, film, and music.\u00a0 But, what about street art, like graffiti, paste-ups, and stencil work?\u00a0 These disciplines have been in the newspapers and on the cutting edge of contemporary art for several years now.\u00a0 And, perhaps one of the most artsy things to do in the United States is to take a graffiti tour<\/a> and workshop in the trendy neighborhood of Bushwick, New York.\u00a0 Who know?\u00a0 Maybe it\u2019ll create a spark and you\u2019ll become the next Banksy.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Spookiest Things To Do:\u00a0 New Orleans Ghost Tour<\/h4>\n

\"best-things<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

America is home to some of the spookiest places on Earth.\u00a0 For starters, you\u2019ve got Area 51, Sleepy Hollow, and Salem.\u00a0 But, frankly, most of the spookiest things to do in the United States take place in the Deep South.\u00a0 The Spanish moss and deadly swamps provide one of the most eerie vibes you can imagine.\u00a0 And, if you had to nail down one activity that\u2019s spookier than the rest, a New Orleans ghost tour<\/a> would probably top the list.\u00a0\u00a0 Roam around the French Quarter and see who, or what, follows you home.\u00a0 Or, check out St. Louis Cemetery #2 and make a deal with the long-deceased Voodoo Queen, Marie Laveau!\u00a0 Just make sure you hold up your end of the bargain.<\/p>\n
