Where bigger is better, in the south you’ll enjoy famed hospitality, barbecue and creole cuisine and an iconic soundtrack of Elvis, jazz and country music. For a great southern road trip, we recommend putting on your cowboy hat and driving west to east, winding your way from Texas to Louisiana, where you can even go on to end your holiday with some beach time in Florida.

From the leafy scenery of Maine in the north to the balmy coastline of the Carolinas in the south, and city stopovers like Boston and New York in-between, the east is a coast of extremes. To tackle the East Coast, we recommend beginning in New York and opting to go north or south. North of New York you can enjoy beautiful New England countryside and charming towns, while in the south you’ll find southern hospitality and superb Florida beaches.

Hawaii
Hawaii
For a stopover, or a holiday in its own right, Hawaii is beloved for its blissful beaches, multi-coloured coral reefs, active volcanoes and laid-back locals. Within the US state there are eight major islands. Most of the action takes places on Oahu, which is where you’ll find Honolulu, but it’s also worth visiting the more serene islands of Maui and Kauai as well.
Recommended holidays
Alaska
Alaska
The USA’s largest state, Alaska is America at its wildest complete with snow-capped mountains, grizzly bears and more than half the world’s glaciers. Due to its remoteness and wild landscapes, Alaska is a fantastic destination to explore by cruise. By land, Anchorage is the main entry point from which you can join a range of escorted tours to experience the surrounding national parks.
