The reasons to come to USA are as vast as the country's
size. With a variety of beautiful sites, coupled with the warmth and
friendliness that makes USA so well regarded internationally, any of
the cities alone would be justification for a visit. When you couple
that with the splendour and majestic solitude of USA's lakes, rivers,
and mountains, you realize that USA is a country of very diverse cultural
and geographical features. We would be pleased to discuss any of our
multi-centre, fly drive itineraries or, if you prefer we’ll create
a tailor made holiday for you. Perhaps consider an escorted coach tour
or one of our rail holidays but, whatever you decide, an American holiday
is always something very special.

Not only does this region encompass the jagged ridges of the incredible Rocky Mountains, but there are, in the far north, thousands of acres of dense forest, mountains and wilderness.
Calgary, with its Stampede, is often regarded as the gateway to this stunning area with Banff and Jasper National Parks, Lake Louise, wildlife, winter sports and native culture being among the main attractions. Several routes cross these magnificent mountains, roads taking advantage of natural passes carved by the rushing torrents of meltwater or, for many a favoured method is by rail. The two day train journey by the Rocky Mountaineer is an experience to be savoured for years to come.
On their own, mountains can be majestic, and any seashore can be a place of beauty, but when mountains plunge into deep blue waters, the panorama can be breathtaking. Add in tall forests, great rivers, rare birds, whales, salmon, bears, boats and small villages, and you've arrived at the west coast.
Those who have no desire to look at even a single eagle or glacier will find the cities of Victoria and, especially Vancouver to be urban jewels almost as outstanding as the region?s natural resources. Be aware, however, that these cities are still within gazing distance of the mountains and the sea: escaping the scenery in Western Canada is no easy task.

Eastern Canada has many national parks where, it often seems, only the changes of the seasons mark the passage of time. From the taiga and tundra landscapes in the north to the myriad of lakes winding through forested hills of the Laurentian Mountains and the dramatic coastline of the Gaspe Peninsula, Eastern Canada is still largely undiscovered.
Quebec City is unique in that its special appeal is rooted in its compelling mix of North American heritage and French birthright. Toronto has a colourful ethnic mix, rich history and breathtaking architecture whilst the nation?s capital, Ottawa, located at the confluence of three picturesque rivers, is considered by many to be one of the world?s most beautiful capitals and there is, of course Niagara Falls, the most famous water spectacle of them all.
