Vacation and value? In Kansas City, they are one in the same. Just ask Hotwire.com; for two years in a row, the Web site has named Kansas City one of the 10 most affordable vacation destinations in America. This summer, Kansas City’s premier attractions are coming together to offer exclusive citywide savings as part of a new promotion called Sunsational KC. All summer long, visitors can look to VisitKC.com for cool, money-saving discounts on everything from hotels to theater—including several 2-for-1 specials. Plus, there’s plenty of fun to be had without even spending a dime; KC’s impressive list of free attractions includes the Hallmark Visitors Center, Boulevard Brewing Co. and The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art.
