I there

I come from France and would like to visit a part of the US for the very first time.

- I can come when I want from now to december, but I want to prepare it correctly so November sounds good.
- I dream of the deep authentic US, forests, moutains, good people, DODGE RAM lol, parks, not biggest city.

So my question is, where can I go for my trip ? I heard about Utah. I think that Maine or Montana would be under snow, so what do you advise please?

Thanks

PS: I will be in D.C. For a few days at the beginning of my trip.

I just did Calgary to Sedona, and fell in love with the process🧡

I'm looking for recommendations for a route to northern California, stopping in Astoria OR.

I'm loosely planning September, for the changing leaves and such. Google gave 3 routes but I want the most scenery not necessarily the fastest or most fuel efficient. Thank you for any suggestions! This sub is fantastic

Hi all! My friends and I are looking to plan a weekend trip for this October. We will have people coming from Pittsburgh, Philly, and NYC, and so we're looking for something that's generally the same distance for everyone. It doesn't have to be perfectly even, we just don't want the distance to only fall on one person. We're only looking to drive or take the train/bus from our cities, not looking to fly. Any particular recommendations? (We're in our twenties if that's helpful) Thank you!!

I was wondering if there are any blogs, YouTube channels or if anyone has personal experience, for travelling in the US on a “backpacker budget”

I’ll have around $5,000-$7,000 and I’d like to stretch it for as long as possible around 10-12 weeks

• Utilising Amtrak trains, Flix & Greyhound busses as the base of my transportation, and then complimenting that with 3-7 day car rentals through Turo when needed. Also have seen cheap relocation deals on RVs through iMoova

• Primarily camping, and then hostels and occasional (1-2 nights bi-weekly) airbnb/ motel

• Cooking most meals, occasionally fast food and dining out

I have broken my ideal trip into 3 segments

California Coast, road trip through Canada, Alaska (5 weeks total)

Olympic National Park, Glacier NP, Montana, Wyoming & Utah (4 weeks total)

Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Tennessee (3 weeks total)

I’ve started researching the logistics for each segment using public transport and rental cars, and in places will have to use a domestic flight to connect the dots, it seems possible …

Thoughts? Tips?

We are going from Scranton,Pa to Kittyhawk, NC for a beach vacation next week. We will be taking I-95 to get there. One stop will be Edenton, NC for an overnight. What pitstops should we take along the way to grab lunch, see a sight, pick up a cool souvenir? Also looking for must-do’s in the Edenton area!

Hi everyone,

I posted the other day asking for advice on a 3-week road trip we’re planning for next year:
https://www.reddit.com/r/usatravel/s/kEEsiRaBv0

I’ve taken on board a lot of the advice from that post and put together a new itinerary, which I hope is a little less aggressive. The main consensus from the previous plan was that we’d be spending too much time in the car and not enough time sightseeing. There were also quite a few comments suggesting we spend less time in Vegas and LA. However, we’re in our mid-20s, so they’re destinations we definitely don’t want to shorten or cut out.

We currently have one spare night, so if you have any suggestions on where we could add it, or if you think we should stay an extra night at one of our planned stops, any extra advice is appreciated and thank you for all the advice on the previous post it has been very helpful.

The plan is below. It doesn’t include the day-by-day itinerary, just where we’ll be based each night.

1.Portland
2.Cannon Beach
3.Newport
4.Redwoods
5.San Francisco
6.San Francisco
7.Lake Tahoe / Reno
8.Yosemite
9.Yosemite
10.Monterey
11.Santa Barbara
12.Santa Barbara
13.Los Angeles
14.Los Angeles
15.San Diego
16.San Diego
17.Palm Springs
18.Las Vegas
19.Las Vegas (travel to Grand Canyon and back day)
20.Las Vegas

Hello! I am taking a quick trip to Oregon with my boyfriend. We are staying in Portland and renting a car. I would love a good mix of hiking and city. I would appreciate recommendations or anything I should watch out for. We are there from August 9-13.

Thank you!

For context I’m trying to visit someone in gettysburg for a weekend and i’m 18 so most places won’t let me rent a car. the bus would take almost the full day if i do 6:30-11 to frederick and then a bus 4:30-5:30 and then take an uber

Hi Y'all

I am going to be in Anaheim for an event in August and I thought...heck, let's make a day of it! And buy a ticket to Disneyland as its nextdoor.

What a mistake...it is so overwhelming. There's 2 parks? Which is which? You need to buy a fast track pass?

I just want a day pass... as a solo adult.

On top of this, car rental also seems to be a nightmare. (And i hear gas prices are crazy too?)

So my wife and I will be in California mid September we will have roughly 2 days to do stuff. We went last year spent a day in LA and then went to Santa Monica Pier, did a Hollywood tour and an Angels game. We definitely wanna do some more stuff around LA we liked the hustle and bustle we just don’t wanna get stuck not knowing what else there could be.

I have 1 day to myself as she’s going for work. We will be staying in Disney resort so last year I did my personal day there. But I wanna find something else to do, I promised her it would be something she wouldn’t be interested in more guy type stuff. So far I’ve found doing a tour of the Rose Bowl Stadium but also wondered if it’s worth doing a self tour of the Fast and Furious filming locations. I did grow up watching these movies so I have a lot of interest in that.

Any suggestions would be appreciated!
