 Try being very casual and almost as if she brought it up. For example: "what are you doing over the summer", "it would be nice to see you", "we never went to X in your town". This are very subtle hints that should lead her to plan something out with you, if she doesn't then I wouldn't bring it up. Women are very intuitive and if you hint her and there is no reaction that means she is not that interested and you insisting would definitely be pushing her and be consistent with your bribing concern.
Good luck!
