Whether you’re an old soul or a child at heart – we’ve got you covered on this all-encompassing adventure full of big city sass and warm southern charm.
Take a bite out of the Big Apple, swing through to the Big Easy and wind up at the Big Peach. This is one juicy adventure full of theme-park thrills, beach-side vibes, old-school jazz and a huge slice of southern hospitality. Share stories around the campfire in the shadows of the Appalachian Mountains, indulge in Creole cuisine and round-the-clock nightlife on buzzing Bourbon Street, discover the museums and memorials along the American History trail and re-enact your favourite Forrest Gump moment in Savannah’s Chippewa Square – life may be like a box of chocolates, but we’ve made sure you know exactly what you’re going to get on this tour – and we’ve selected all the best flavours.
Some of our under-30 travellers prefer to get around with people their own age. If that’s you, you’re in the right place!

Less time spent in a vehicle; more time to explore each destination. This trip has been carefully designed to give you the best experience of a region by reducing the number of one-night-only stops, giving you extra time in the places that matter.
This trip involves either a partial or full camping experience, giving you access to more remote destinations at close proximity, and the joy of camping under the night skies and beside a campfire. This is a participatory trip – a fancy way of saying you’re not just along for the ride, but you are part of a team! Be prepared to roll up your sleeves and help out with camp activities like food prep and washing up. It’s all about giving your new travel mates a hand, and everyone knows there’s nothing worse than trying to put up a tent on your own!
Although our private vehicles do have air conditioning, it has to work pretty hard to keep a full group cool. Expect to feel hot during summer and cold at other times of the year, especially at night. Please consider the season and research the weather conditions to determine the best time to travel for you. Remember to come prepared with adequate clothing.
That teamwork also extends to our optional food kitty of approximately USD 10 per day to cover the cost of meals. This means you don’t have to worry about stuff like where to get food or what exactly sales tax is, and actually helps keep your costs down. Instead of paying individually as you go, it means we can bulk purchase items and cook our own food – though there’s always the chance to use it for the occasional pizza night or s’mores by the campfire! The kitty is optional and for your convenience, so if you've got specific dietary requirements you can opt out to purchase (and cook) your own food.
This trip includes time spent travelling in a private vehicle with your group. Extra space can be tight, and conditions may feel a little cramped. It’s all part of the adventure and a great way to get to know your fellow travellers. Please read the itinerary carefully for travel time estimates.
As we’ll be travelling between multiple locations at a fairly quick pace, there won’t be too much time spent at Panama City Beach. While there will be some time to relax on the beach, you won’t get a full day here.
The United States is a world of endless possibilities – that’s why our trips are designed so they fit together as (not quite endless) combinations. That means while you might just be starting your trip, some of your new travel mates may have been travelling together for a week or more, and probably have some great tips for you.
