Summer Is Looking NYup! For Upstate Travel Destinations

Feb 15, 2021

The NYup Travel Guide is just the ticket to send travelers on their way to great summer getaways in Upstate New York.

(For immediate release) It's been a long haul. Now, as the COVID-19 vaccine rolls out and travelers take to the roads again, a new travel and tourism section, NYup Travel Guide, will take readers on a tour of Upstate New York's most exciting and beautiful places.

According to Nielsen, nearly 8 out of 10 adults are planning some sort of travel during the next 12 months. As COVID weary travelers look for summer staycation and vacation opportunities, such as day trips, long weekends and week-long getaways close to home, this special section will show them how and where to experience all the excitement and beauty that summer in Upstate New York has to offer. As we look forward to spring and summer again, let's get back out there. See all the sites. Eat all the treats. Experience all the things. Summer is looking up.
