United States (New York to San Francisco)

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

The United States is the world's third-largest country by area, stretching coast to coast from the iconic skyline of New York City on the Atlantic to the fog-rolling hills of San Francisco on the Pacific. This cross-country corridor takes in some of America's most celebrated landscapes and cities — from the Appalachians and the Great Plains to the Rocky Mountains and the Mojave Desert. Travellers are drawn by the sheer variety on offer: world-class museums, national parks like the Grand Canyon and Zion, Route 66 nostalgia, and vibrant urban cultures in cities such as Chicago, Nashville, and Las Vegas. Whether road-tripping, rail-riding, or hopping between hubs, the New York–to–San Francisco journey is one of travel's great continental adventures.

Best of the US Express — Self-Launched Edition

A two-week coast-to-coast US road-and-rail adventure from New York to San Francisco, rebuilt for independent travellers. Same cultural touchstones as the small-group original — Times Square, the monuments of Washington DC, Shenandoah and the Appalachians, Nashville and Memphis, Bourbon Street, Joshua Tree, the Grand Canyon rim at sunset, Route 66, Death Valley, Vegas, Yosemite and the crookedest street in the world — but using Amtrak, budget flights, hostel dorms and national-park campgrounds instead of a private coach and guide. Costs are rough per-person estimates in GBP; bookings via Amtrak, airline sites, Recreation.gov and GetYourGuide/Klook. US note: campsites and park entries are cheap, but the domestic flight and big-city hostels are the main money sinks.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for United States (New York to San Francisco) yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Find the most locally-hated tourist trap and go anyway, unironically, in a costume."
