About the USA

Known for

Extraordinary geographic range in one country -- world-famous national parks (Grand Canyon, Yellowstone, Yosemite), iconic cities (New York, Los Angeles, Chicago), and everything from desert to rainforest to arctic tundra.

Best time to visit

The US is in the Northern Hemisphere, where spring runs March-May, summer June-August, fall (autumn) September-November, and winter December-February -- the reverse of the Southern Hemisphere’s calendar. Spring and fall offer mild weather and lighter crowds across most of the country; summer is peak season for national parks and coastal destinations; winter suits ski regions and warm-weather escapes like Florida and Hawaii.

Getting around

Domestic flights connect major cities quickly; renting a car is the practical choice for national parks and most regions outside dense urban cores, since public transit coverage varies widely by city and is limited between destinations.

Suggested trip length

A single region (e.g. the Southwest, the Pacific Coast, New England) is realistically a 7-14 day trip; seeing multiple regions usually means separate visits rather than one long circuit, given the distances involved.
