An article in Southern Living recently caught my eye. I have to admit the main reason was because it talked about the St. Louis Cardinals baseball team, but it also lists travel deals and websites to help you explore major cities in different U.S. states and an international city.

St. Louis: To get a homerun with cheap tickets to a game, get there early. The first 275 fans at the ballpark pay only $11 for a pair of tickets. The city also offers several more free attractions such as the Gateway Arch and St. Louis Zoo – one of the only free zoos in the nation.One event that’s coming up is the 16th Annual St. Louis Art Fair Sept. 11-13. Explore St. Louis can also provide other ideas.

Nashville: This country music capital also provides a package deal to see the city. For $45 you can visit the Nashville Shores Waterpark, Nashville Zoo and the Country Music Hall of Fame. That saves you 40 bucks. Take a look at Visit Music City.

Along with logging onto city websites, City Pass allows you to choose from 11 cities to see their most famous attractions and bundle your tickets.

Houston: For those of you who my be new to this city, the pass is a good way to explore many attractions. For admission to the Space Center Houston, Downtown Aquarium and the Houston Zoo it only costs $39. This is a savings of $32, according to the article.

Atlanta: Purchasing a City Pass in this Georgia hot spot can earn you a savings of $67. Six locations can be visited for $69 including the Georgia Aquarium, World of Coca-Cola and High Museum of Art.
