why do you always wet your panties at these two names? Do you have a complex or something?
I don't wear panties Skippy. I'm sure the very idea gets you excited. But I do laugh at the very idea of anyone going to either of those cities for tourism.

well the 50M who visit these cities every year don't care whether you laugh or not, in fact they don't give a flying flip about what you think.

you may not like these cities, but 12 million people live there and tens of millions visit each year whether you laugh or not

07. Miami
08. Seattle
09. Mexico City/Cancun (One of them)
10. Vancouver

(In my opinion- and yes I do mean it in this same order)
Your list doesn't make sense haha. How do some cities appear rather high for the U.S, but make no appearance in the top 10 for North America. Daniel, you've done it again!

Because, in the USA you have some states that have more than one city worth seeing. (California: Los Angeles & San Francisco)

But overall if I were to recommend cities for North America, I would only recommend one from any state. Thus Los Angeles is taken out. Las Vegas, Orlando, & Boston replaced with Toronto, Montreal, & Vancouver.

Wouldn't it depend on what you want to tour?

If one wanted a historical and cultural tour of the U.S. I'd go with...

Boston
New York
Philadelphia
Miami
New Orleans
Chicago
San Antonio
Los Angeles
San Francisco
Seattle

Honorable mentions and possible substitutes would probably be DC and Atlanta

You CANNOT go on a historical tour of this country without going to D.C. this doesn't make any sense thats like building a subway system with no stations.

50 million really? Can you source that? I recall NYC having 48 million visitors in 2009, how the hell can Houston have more visitors than NYC?
