This really is the adventure of a lifetime – an American road trip visiting 48 states in just under three months. It doesn’t come cheap costing £6,459 including flights from the UK but this amazing tour does include 79 nights accommodation, transportation and a tour guide. That’s great value for money.
The Great 48 departs from Miami on May 9 next year. For those who have always wanted to explore the good ole USA and a smorgasbord of Uncle Sam’s tourist delights, this is the perfect opportunity to travel with longstanding American experts.
The American road trip from Miami snakes across the country over 80 days, from the southernmost tip of the Florida Keys all the way to the most northern city in the lower 48, Seattle.
From stunning National Parks, to red rock landscapes, jagged mountains and great plains, there’s no chance of getting bored. A few surprise highlights of the real America include visiting the ‘waterpark capital of the world’ the Wisconsin Dells, swimming in Homestead Crater (which was featured in the movie 127 Hours), spotting sea lions off the California coast and hiking the Appalachian Mountains. Whilst the old faithful cities of Las Vegas, Miami, New York, San Francisco and Chicago all make the cut.
The tour costs £5,699 per person (£6,459 including flights subject to availability) and includes 79 nights’ accommodation including camping, hostels, hotels and cabins, the services of a professional tour guide and transport by private vehicle, which includes free Wi-Fi! Those on the tour can boast to their social media buddies as they become a new generation Phileas Fogg, and this time it’s around the states in 80 days.
For those wanting to take in all 50 states, TrekAmerica can provide a personalised extension itinerary to include both Hawaii and Alaska. There are lots more additions to TrekAmerica’s new 2014 brochure and all tours are now 100% inclusive of accommodation.
Also to celebrate the launch, customers who book before October 31 for tours of seven days or more, get one night in a hotel before and after the trip for free!
