Wonders from Coast to Coast!

Americans are known for being proud of their nation—and with natural wonders from the Niagara Falls to the Grand Canyon, this country has a lot to be proud of. 

The USA is divided into several distinct geographical defined by both geography and culture. When you pass from one region to another, it’s almost like moving between countries (other than the stars and stripes on every flagpole.) Considered by many to a world leader in politics and culture, the USA is an increasingly pluralistic country. In fact, it’s projected that this country will soon have a “minority majority,” making this melting pot even more diverse than ever before.

Choosing Your Trip

America is a vast land with ecosystems ranging from rainforests to harsh deserts. It would take months—even years—to see it all. So how do you decide where to visit?

History buffs won’t want to miss a chance to see Revolutionary and Civil War sites in the Northeast and deep South, while culture vultures will love big cities like New York and Chicago. Partygoers might find their perfect trip among the lights and music of Las Vegas, while cinema buffs won’t be able to resist the pull of Hollywood Boulevard.

Nature lovers and adventure travelers have so many opportunities here that it’s hard to list even a portion. The Appalachian Mountains in the east are filled with shady, isolated coves deep in the mountain stone, where plentiful rainfall contributes to many streams, rivers, and waterfalls.

Out west, destinations like the Grand Canyon and Yosemite Park will give you a picture of the vast American wilderness. Snorkel among tropical fish off the Florida Keys, or view massive glaciers off the coast of Alaska. The sky’s the limit for sightseeing and adventuring in the USA.

Road Trippers

America is the land of the open road. The explosion of affordable cars in Post-WWII America led to a boom in interstates and highways crisscrossing the country. With so many remote destinations reachable only by car, a road trip is one of the best ways to see the true America.

Road Trippers face one big choice when choosing a route: get to know one region, or see it all with a cross country journey. Roads through the American West—including the famous Route 66—will reveal vast arid lands, stunning mountain peaks, and quirky desert towns, while a car trip in the Northeast can transport you easily from one historic site to another.

A cross-country road trip lets you see it all. Map your route from one coast to the other, making sure to stop at major landmarks like the geysers at Yellowstone National Park or the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C.
