This one's a classic soft brush-off and it always feels awkward to push back on without sounding pushy. Curious how people actually handle it in the moment, do you agree and follow up with a specific next step already scheduled, or try to keep them on the call a bit longer to dig into what's actually holding them back? What's worked for you to keep this from turning into a dead lead?

Hello everyone, I have 2 weeks and torn between spending the whole time properly exploring one major city in depth versus splitting it between a city (few days) and a national park region (the rest). Worried that splitting means I don't do either justice, but worried that picking just a city means missing out on the landscape side entirely.

For people who've done a mixed trip like this, did the split feel balanced or did you wish you'd picked one and gone deeper? Any specific city and park combos that pair well logistically?
