Plan Your Stay
Planning a trip to Overland Park? You’ve come to the right place! All of us here at Visit OP are excited to welcome you. In addition to being the second most populous city in Kansas, we are also the largest suburb of the bi-state Kansas City metro area.
One of the things we love most about Overland Park is that it’s a city of contrasts. Big city dining, entertainment and shopping are adjacent to lush parks, nature preserves and, of course, plenty of beautiful Kansas prairies. Exciting new destinations are flanked by historic landmarks, a compelling testament to Overland Park’s importance in both the past and future.
Despite its size, Overland Park welcomes visitors with the charm and appeal you’d expect of a small town. That appealing atmosphere—combined with an appealing variety of attractions, recreation, shopping, dining and lodging—is why more people opt to bring it on over to Overland Park.
And there’s no better place to start your trip than with Visit Overland Park. We’re your source for information, tips, and recommendations. We’ll help you plan your trip with several itineraries that are customized for your interests, including history buffs, art appreciators, families, food and beverage connoisseurs, and girlfriend getaways.
