Weekend Guides
In order to spend the perfect 48 hours in a place, you need to plan. Luckily, I’ve done the hard part for you and all you have to do is enjoy. The Red Jacket Travels Weekend Guides provide tailor-made itineraries to regions and cities across the globe.
- Weekend Guide: San Pedro de Atacama
San Pedro is a town literally built out of the desert. It frequently runs out of water, there is no fertile land to grow crops nearby, and it frequently fluctuates between oppressive heat and bone-chilling cold. However, this little town persists because of the absolutely gorgeous natural beauty within 100 miles of it and I guarantee you won’t be bored during your time here because of everything to do here. - Weekend Guide: Bernese Oberland
The Bernese Oberland region of Switzerland has some of the most jaw-dropping scenery out of anywhere I’ve ever been. From 360 views of the Swiss alps to gorgeous hikes through Sound of Music-esq meadows and gigantic waterfalls, a weekend in the Bernese Oberland is one for the ages. - Weekend Guide: Siem Reap and Angkor Wat
Angkor Wat is the ancient temple of the Khmer empire, originally constructed as a Hindu temple and later converted into a Buddhist temple. However, there is so much more to see other than the temple complex, such as the gigantic city of Angkor Thom, the “Tomb Raider” temple: Ta Prohm, and the beautifully intricate Banteay Srei. The days might be long, but feeling like you’re Indiana Jones exploring abandoned temples and tombs is absolutely incredible. - Weekend Guide: Buenos Aires
This city has been nicknamed the Paris of South America, and for a good reason. Buenos Aires, or the Ciudad Autonoma Buenos Aires (CABA), has wide, tree-lined avenues, and is bursting at the seams with all its culture. With so much to do, ranging from museums to architecture to nightlife, you certainly won’t be bored here.
