USA Trips
Why travel solo to the USA?
Endlessly vast and diverse, there’s more to the USA than first impressions would have you believe.
The cities of the USA are iconic destinations known the world over, each with its own distinctive character.
Head down to New Orleans and you’ll find a musical heritage like no other. While over in San Francisco, you’ll find a city emanating a palpable creative energy. Where else could have transformed from the Wild West of the gold rush days into a world-leading tech hub?
But we couldn’t speak about the USA without mentioning its truly epic landscapes. Take Moab National Park, for instance. A world of towering red rocks, roaring rivers and unexpected wineries.
Travel to the USA, and you might find all your expectations confirmed; whilst realising there’s a whole world of diversity and nuance existing beyond the obvious.
