United States Tour Packages

Popular routes focus on a region: New York and the east coast, California and the national parks of the west, Florida's beaches and theme parks, or a Southwest road trip.

The currency is the US dollar (USD). English (Spanish is widely spoken). On our United States tours we arrange your transport, guides and accommodation, and can advise on visas and the best route for your interests. Carry a little local cash for markets and tips, pack for the season, and travel with an open mind.

The USA spans a whole continent, from Atlantic to Pacific, taking in mountains, deserts, plains, forests and coastlines, plus Alaska and Hawaii.

United States has its own seasonal rhythm, and choosing the right time of year makes a real difference to your trip.

The best time depends entirely on the region: spring and autumn suit most cities and the national parks, summer the northern parks and Alaska, and winter the south and the ski resorts.

The USA is vast and diverse, its culture defined by its regions — the energy of the northeast, the sunshine of California, the music of the south and the wide-open west.

Most visitors need an ESTA (under the Visa Waiver Program) or a visa; confirm the current requirement for your nationality well in advance. Rules change from time to time, so always confirm the current requirement for your own passport before booking. If you travel with us, we will guide you through exactly what you need.

A little courtesy goes a long way in United States. Tipping (15-20%) is expected in restaurants and for services, distances are large so plan travel carefully, and rules vary by state.

Do respect local traditions, carry small change for tips and markets, and stay hydrated. Don't drink tap water unless it is confirmed safe, flash valuables in crowded areas, or over-pack your schedule — the best trips here are unhurried ones.
