USA, Alaska & Hawaii

America is a country rich in wonderful scenery, charming small towns and villages, inviting coastlines and beaches and many of the world's most exciting cities. Tourism is focused mainly in the cities such as New York and Washington, as well as sunshine states such as California, Florida and Hawaii where millions of tourists congregate each year to enjoy the fine beaches, natural wonders and man-made attractions such as Disneyland, Universal Studios and Hollywood. However visitors also flock to the mind-blowing landscapes of the interior which can found in the wealth of magnificent National Parks like Yosemite, Yellowstone and the Adirondacks, as well as spectacular sights like the Grand Canyon and the Rocky Mountains. The best way to explore the delights of America is a self-drive holiday. The Americans favourite transport is the trusty vehicle and the whole nation is geared up for travelling by car.

High rollers head to Las Vegas, and high fliers party and head for great Miami hotels. But if it's high altitudes you're after, we'll help you book an unforgettable skiing holiday in one of the many superior resorts. The American pistes are almost empty and are always kept well groomed. The lift staff are efficient, and you can always find a mountain host nearby to advise you on the best slopes in any ski resort. America is known for its love of food and whilst you ski in America you will build up enough of an appetite to enjoy the excellent food in the restaurants which are reasonably priced.

And for a unique experience, visit Alaska where the sparkling rivers of ice crack and groan, turquoise-green glacial lakes reflect silent mountains ablaze with purple fireweed. Grizzly bears fish for salmon while moose amble slowly by. Caribou migrate here, and birds come from as far as Australia to spend their summers in Alaska.
