The United States is the land of road trips and is best explored by car. Discover a diverse range of spectacular landscapes. We have many years of experience designing holidays that take in the unique contrasts of the United States. Without the need to visit every ‘highlight’ as promoted in the well-known guide books.
The question is ‘what size car suits you?’ Medium, Large, or a Minivan. We can help you make this decision. Would you like more information about your options? Our travel specialists are more than happy to tell you more about our car rental options.
What type of car would you like to travel with?
A medium-sized SUV offers good fuel efficiency and more space for you and your luggage. Our hire cars are less than six months old, are well-equipped, and are well suited to drive on American roads.
In the United States, most places are accessible by car, including the national parks. You can easily park the car along the way and go for a stroll through nature or capture the incredible views. At the entrance of each park, you will be given a map of the area.
In our experience, Americans generally drive fairly responsibly. Please note: speed limits may vary by state and park.
Enjoy scenic drives through fragment sequoia forests. Drive past herds of grazing bison, towering redwoods, and rugged coastlines. In your SUV, you can drive comfortably and relaxed through the United States, and spending two to three nights at each location will ensure that you don’t waste your precious holiday time.
Explore each area thoroughly, meet the locals and make the most out of your holiday. Are you curious about the most ideal routes? Our travel specialists can inform you about the best connections and timetables. We are more than happy to discuss all the possibilities in a personal conversation together.
Since 1 April 2019, we are carbon offsetting all of our client’s flights and car driving whilst they are on holiday.
"The best road trip for me is driving through the mountains. These are my personal favourite areas to explore, from Colorado to the Pacific North West."
