USA Holidays
No other country boasts variety quite the way the United States of America does. From sleepy towns to vibrant cities, from desert plains to soaring mountain ranges, and from white sand beaches to unparallelled theme parks, there’s no shortage of choice on a USA holiday.
Discover the coastal glamour of California as you visit Los Angeles and travel along the rugged, untamed shoreline of the Big Sur region, or head inland to Arizona’s mighty Grand Canyon National Park. In the Deep South, music reigns supreme, second only to great food. Soft notes of jazz fills the air in New Orleans, Memphis’ Beale Street resonates with the blues, and Nashville’s country music beckons visitors onto honky tonk dance floors. Head east in the region’s famous fall foliage season and you’ll find New England’s sleepy towns, covered bridges, and rolling hills cosied under a blanket of red and gold.
The USA’s Big Names
Adventure abounds in the playground created by the USA’s landscapes, but between the mountains, lakes, beaches and forests sit iconic cities lit by lights almost as bright as their spirits. They call you to discover their vibrancy, their history and their unique cultures, from Washington DC’s political monuments and museums, to Boston’s red brick walkways; from New York’s Statue of Liberty, to Austin’s dynamic music scene.
With such a diverse range of destinations, why not visit a few places during your USA holiday? Hire a motorhome and experience some of the country’s most incredible national parks, like Yellowstone and Yosemite, or perhaps pair a beach stay on one of Hawaii’s enchanting islands with a Deep South adventure. When it comes to the USA, the possibilities are truly endless.
