Why go on a multi-centre holiday in America?
America is a nation as diverse as it is vast, making it an incredibly exciting destination to explore. Of course, its sheer size means there's a lot of ground to cover, so why not make the most of your trip with a multi-centre holiday in the USA?
This kind of getaway is littered with advantages - to find out what these are, read our guide.
See more in one trip
Perhaps one of the most obvious benefits of a multi-centre break is simply that it gives you the chance to see more of the nation in one trip.
Flights from the UK to the US are long, so it makes sense to get the most out of your time there - particularly if there are many places you're keen to see.
Given the breadth of attractions the nation is home to, this is indeed likely to be the case. From world-famous natural wonders to bustling cities, the US has much to interest all kinds of traveller - so why not visit multiple locations each time you visit and experience different parts of its culture?
Amazing cities
The US is famous for its sprawling metropolises, each boasting its own unique attractions.
On a multi-centre break, you'll have a choice of amazing cities to explore, from historic Boston to Sin City itself, Las Vegas.
If Boston captures your imagination, you could combine a sightseeing tour of the city with experiencing the rich colours of New England and discovering the Maine coastline.
Along the way, you can visit colourful Salem - made famous by the 17th-century witch trials - before riding the Mount Washington Cog Railway up to the summit of this vast mountain, which offers staggering views.
Visits to places like Burlington, Sturbridge and Mystic are just a few of the other fabulous experiences included on such itineraries.
National parks and natural wonders
Multi-centre holidays are also an excellent opportunity to explore the US's many extraordinary national parks.
Home to natural wonders such as the Grand Canyon and iconic manmade structures like Mount Rushmore, the country's national parks offer a great mix of unforgettable sights and rich culture.
What's more, by choosing a multi-centre break, you can combine exploring these with visiting bustling, exciting cities - thereby giving you a more balanced experience of the country.
For example, you could head on a tour of a number of the US's national parks - including the Grand Canyon, Arches National Park and Zion National Park - that starts and finishes in Las Vegas.
Contrast the larger-than-life shows, lights and casinos of Sin City with the vast expanse of the Grand Canyon, the iconic old-west landscapes of Monument Valley and the fascinating desert ecosystem of Zion National Park.
The classic road trip
If you've ever dreamed of cruising along the open road with the top down, why not make it a reality with a multi-centre break?
While you can opt for escorted tours, you also have the option to fly drive in the USA. This is perfect for people who want the ease and benefits of a professionally planned itinerary, while also enjoying the freedom of an independent adventure.
Among your options is travelling Route 66 - also known as the Mother Road. Head from Chicago to Las Vegas, experiencing diverse sights from Illinois farmland and the Mississippi River to the Grand Canyon and cowboy country.
