In our busy lives, we all need some R & R, but it may seem impossible because we are so pressed for time. Weekend trip packages are designed to be quick and fun, so you will get the rest and relaxation that you need and be able to return to work on Monday.
Cruise Along
Weekend cruises are a nice idea for a quick getaway. The shortest cruises are usually three to five days, and stop at your favorite ports-of-call. Carnival and Royal Caribbean offer more short cruises than other lines. Weekend cruises will run less than week-long cruises, though you will pay more on a newer ship. It's also a good idea to book a cheap cabin for a shorter cruise, because you'll be spending less time there. For more information on weekend cruises, check out RTM's Quick Escapes article.
Head to the Midwest
For those nowhere near an ocean, the Midwest boasts beautiful scenery and small towns brimming with exciting activities, perfect for weekend escapes. These towns have it all — atmosphere, shopping, dining and outdoor activities, which make them ideal for sightseeing.
