Itinerary

Day 1: Start Los Angeles

Hello America! Welcome to the City of Angels. Here you’ll meet the crew and kick off your trip in true A-list Hollywood style with visits to places you’ll recognise from the silver screen. It’s a jam-packed day with so much to see and do - from Melrose to Muscle Beach you’ll be wowed at every stop and your phone will no doubt be full of Instagram worthy pics. Tonight exchange highlights of the day over a delicious feast.

Line Hotel LA

Dinner

Day 2: Los Angeles

The day is yours to explore the City of Angels. Opt to visit Universal Studios or Disneyland or check out LA Live entertainment venue.  The shopping goes off, so look for deals in the garment district. Visit the Grammy Museum and for the foodies among us check out Grand Central Market a treat for the tastebuds and the senses.

Line Hotel LA

Day 3: Los Angeles to Las Vegas

LA, you’ve been a dream, but we’re swapping out the glamourous dreamscape of La La land for the neon delights of Vegas. A place of dreams and epic debauchery, this huge man-made entertainment precinct in the middle of the desert is all about total excess. You’ll be blinded by the bright lights and gobsmacked at the thought of all the $$$ running through more than 75 massive casinos. A nighttime tour of the famous ‘Strip’, including a stop for pics at the legendary Vegas sign, will show you what’s on offer after dark in this outrageous city.

Tropicana Hotel (or similar)

Dinner

Day 4: Las Vegas

Spend the morning lazing by the poolside sipping on recovery cocktails, or maybe opt to soar in a helicopter above the Grand Canyon – one of the world’s most impressive natural wonders. This city has some quirkier offerings too, like the Neon Museum and the Atomic Testing Museum.

Tropicana Hotel (or similar)

Day 5: Las Vegas

Our final day in 'Sin City' is open for you to let loose and enjoy. High roll (or observe from a safe distance) in one of the countless casinos, do some bargain-hunting in the factory outlets, admire the elaborate synchronised fountains of The Bellagio. What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, and we're staying one more night.

Tropicana Hotel (or similar)

Day 6: Las Vegas to Miami

This morning we trade one hot spot for another as we board our flight to Miami! Get ready for beaches, glamour and excitement. Welcome to Miami, Bienvenido a Miami! We'll swap the bling for beaches today as we touch down in Florida's Southeastern tip. Today's a free day for you to soak up as much of that Florida sunshine and sea as you can. Tomorrow we'll check out the Cuban-influenced downtown and the colourful buildings & white sands of glamorous South Beach.

Catalina Hotel (or similar)

Breakfast

Day 7: Miami

Another day in this eclectic city, and there's SO much to see and do. If you want to take the adrenaline up a notch, why not live out your Miami Vice dreams on a Thriller speedboat tour of the bay? Or you could take a stroll down South Beach and peruse the art deco buildings and bright neon lights, before it's time to explore Miami's iconic club scene. Wanna make it a night to remember? Our optional Cuban feast will do just that, especially if you decide to join us at a salsa dance class beforehand. A sultry combo of Cuban dances such as mambo, pachanga and rumba, it's not a bad skill to master before your night on the DF (and when you wanna impress your pals back home).

Catalina Hotel (or similar)

Breakfast, Dinner

Day 8: Miami

You’ll discover energetic Miami today with free time to do as you please. This urban tropical paradise is a fabulous place to people watch (or celebrity spot), so head down to Ocean Avenue and drink it all in. Swimming, bike riding tours or museum visits are also on the cards this afternoon. Little Havana is a must see with Cuban flavours to taste, dominoes to be played and salsa music to be danced to. Tonight, get into the nighttime vibes once again, because well, why not?

Catalina Hotel (or similar)

Breakfast

Day 9: Miami

It’s our last day in Miami, and by now we’re definitely feeling like locals. If you haven’t yet copped yourself a fedora, taken that classic insta pic by a vintage car or seen all the sights you wanted to see, now’s your chance. Let loose on the city’s vintage stores to stock up on souvenirs, or even take the day to get in that all-important tanning sesh - this is our last day in Miami, after all. Tonight, we’ll sip margaritas and swap stories about our highlights, ready for our morning flight the next day.

Catalina Hotel (or similar)

Breakfast

Day 10: Miami to New York

One more Cuban coffee for the road and we’ll bid our farewells to marvellous Miami before jumping on our included flight to the Big Apple

The Pod 39 Hotel (or similar)

Breakfast

Day 11: Hello Big Apple!

Welcome to New York! Today, get up close to one of the world’s most recognisable icons, the Statue of Liberty, then you can take off at your own pace and discover more of the ultimate big city. Get on 2 wheels in a fun optional guided tour and peddle your way through Central Park, New York’s heart and “lungs”. Your Trip Manager knows this popular haunt’s hidden spots and will tell you all about this iconic green space. Otherwise, get familiar with New York’s various flavors and step into its global kitchen. Try some hand made pasta in atmospheric Little Italy, or authentic noodles from a hole-in-the-wall restaurant in bustling Chinatown. Pick up a bagel and some salami from a deli or buy an authentic American hot dog from a street stand.

The Pod 39 Hotel (or similar)

Day 12: New York City

Another day, another bite of the Big Apple. Soak up the bohemian feel of the former centre point of the folk movement, Greenwich Village. This hub of alternative culture still has a buzzing street life and cute, sidewalk cafes. Take a walk through stylish Soho and check out its hip, funky boutiques, the warehouse district and its trademark iron architecture. Shopping-wise, New York is one of the world’s hottest cities and a leading trend-setter, so get some tips from your Trip Manager on where to go for the latest fashions. Use your free night to head back to your favourite city spot for a cocktail or ask your Trip Manager for some fresh ideas and head out with your friends.

The Pod 39 Hotel (or similar)

Dinner

Day 13: End New York

Your trip comes to an end this morning, so say adios to your Trip Manager and all your new pals. Time to start planning your next holiday, eh! Reunion in Europe perhaps?

Apart from going above and beyond they gave us an amazing tour of the south island of New Zealand! The weather gods were in our favour for October giving us alot of sunshine, barely any rain and alot of incredible views to take in! The adrenalin activities are far and wide for Queenstown and of course you enjoy many nights out! Overal a great little getaway! Worth noting there is a bit of driving through the south on the bus but worth it!

Our trip was planned well, but way to rushed I feel as though it should have went for longer. BUT the activity’s, tour guides, wildlife and the people you meet along the way made everything so worth the trip.
