If you want to make the most of your time in North America, go on a tour – independently or with a group – hire a car with a planned itinerary, or set off on a rail journey. Our guided tours are small, led by local tour leaders with insider knowledge, and include all immersive experiences. From neon to nature, you could embark on an eclectic journey through the heart of America's West, visiting some of the world’s most famous sights, cities and surrounds with a group of like-minded travellers. Train journeys are marvellous ways to discover the key cities of eastern Canada, a handful of states in America, and the wonderful landscapes that surround them. Equally, this is the land of the self-drives – you can head out on the open road on itineraries that take you through Route 66, Vancouver Island, or New England in the autumn as the crispy leaves turn golden, plus much more.
