Holidays in USA

The USA is comprised of 50 states - each with its own unique landscape, dialect and traditions.

Overview

Nowhere in the world will you find such diversity in a single country, from the snow-capped Rocky Mountains of Colorado to the great chasm of the Grand Canyon, and from the metropolis of New York to the sultry southern charm of New Orleans. America's emblems, such as the Statue of Liberty, the Golden Gate Bridge, Empire State Building, Time Square, and the Hollywood Hills have been stamped in our memories after appearing in countless blockbusting films.

Holidays in the USA often centre round one of the major cities on the east or west coasts. Boston, the birthplace of American independence, is renowned for Harvard University, the Boston Red Sox, Freedom Trail, and of course the legendary Cheers pub. South of Boston is the Big Apple, the king of the hill - New York, New York! The city that never sleeps is a melting pot of lifestyles, from the soaring skyscrapers and bright lights of Broadway to the charming tree-lined streets of Greenwich Village and the tranquillity of Central Park.

Continuing down the east coast is Washington, the US capital and home to the Whitehouse, Capitol Hill, and the Lincoln Memorial. The west coast features the glamorous Hollywood Hills and the vibrant city of San Francisco. Holidays in the USA appeal to all walks of life, whether you're after a relaxing beach holiday in Florida, a shopping spree in New York, a ski trip in the Rocky Mountains, or a tour of the breathtaking sights such as Niagara Falls and the Grand Canyon.
