"David took plenty of time to really bring the trip to life, and his offer to discuss the trip before we left was very helpful, as was contact during the trip. His service was completely first class from end to end - I could not have been more impressed with his communication, thoughtfulness and planning. Our trip was so much better than if we’d organised it ourselves, thanks to David and his team."

What can you find on a USA family holiday that you won't find anywhere else?


Forget Disneyland. OK, OK, maybe don’t rule out the House of Mouse entirely, but with such an array of exciting activities and places to visit on offer, the USA is an ideal destination for a luxury family holiday, Mickey Mouse & mates or otherwise. Tweens and teens especially will absolutely love America - from wildlife spotting in the National Parks to surfing in Hawaii, shopping in New York and trekking in California there are options galore. If you have very young kids, some of the flight times may well appear daunting, and if the thought of spending ten hours in a confined space at 30,000 ft with your little monsters strikes fear in your hearts, this may not be the destination for you.
