Luxury Travel: Los Angeles, CaliforniaArches National Park, Utah, USA

With a staggering 50 states to explore, the USA offers super-sized adventures coast to coast. Framed by two great oceans, this vast land is full of contrasts—from iconic national parks and world-famous cities to highways stretching across golden plains. Everything here is bigger, bolder, and brimming with possibility.

The secret to a one-of-a-kind USA trip? Rather than attempting a coast-to-coast sweep of America's greatest hits, we recommend carving out a small slice of this continental giant (a city, a coastline, a cluster of towns) and letting it pull you in.

  • “One of the most beloved autumn traditions in the US, leaf peeping in New England is an experience I would recommend to anyone. From late September to mid-October, the forests come alive with brilliant hues of red, orange, yellow, and gold. Make sure to time a road trip through scenic Route 100 during autumn – it makes an already picturesque journey truly one-of-a-kind."

  • “Most visitors to the Big Apple have seen the sensational sights from below. But for a truly exceptional experience, take a private helicopter tour of the city and see its iconic landmarks from the air. Swoop over Central Park and the soaring skyscrapers, circle the Statue of Liberty, fly alongside the Brooklyn Bridge, and admire the New York Harbour and nearby islands from an entirely new perspective!”
