America is the birthplace of LA, Las Vegas, Chicago, Miami, Boston, and New York City – each a brimming metropolis whose name alone conjures a million different notions of culture, cuisine, and entertainment. Experience the eclectic music scene of Austin, the magnificent waterfront of San Francisco and the captivating French Quarter of jazz-loving New Orleans. Each city adds its unique style to the grand patchwork that is America.
Road Trips
This is a country of road trips and great open skies, where 4 million miles of highways lead past red-rock deserts, below towering mountain peaks and through fertile wheat fields that roll off toward the horizon. The sun-bleached hillsides of the Great Plains, the lush rainforests of the Pacific Northwest, and the sultry swamplands of the South are a few fine starting points for the great American road trip.
Foods and Flavours
From thick barbecue ribs at a Texas roadhouse to award-winning West Coast restaurants, you’ll find a country full of flavour. Locals get their fix of bagels and lox at a century-old deli in Manhattan's Upper West Side and, several states away, plump pancakes and fried eggs disappear under the clatter of cutlery at a 1950s-style diner – these are just a few ways to dine à la Americana.
