USA Summer Camp's Guide to Travelling the USA

Best Way to Travel around America

You might have already planned to travel across America with friends, or you might be a ‘wait and see’ kind of person, but either way, you’ll probably be excited to use your 30 days of travel time after Summer Camp ends.

If you’re travelling alone or with a group, you’ll need to know the best way to travel across America. And, if you’re looking for tips and tricks to keep travel costs down, we’ve got you covered!

Travel America by Bus

If you’re looking to explore a specific State, then travelling by bus will be one of the most affordable modes of transport to get you from city to city.

There are plenty of bus companies – like Greyhound and Megabus – who all have easy to use websites and apps that’ll help you book travel in advance.

… just remember to check luggage allowances before you board!

Travel America by Car

Tick off a road trip around America from the Bucket List by renting a car.

Renting a car to travel America will be one of the best ways to make sure you see all the sights and quirky locations that you’d otherwise miss.

You’ll need to be over 25-years-old to rent a car for a decent price… but you could always make friends with Americans at camp who already drive!

Travel America by Plane

You’ll want to make the most of your time travelling America, and that might mean hopping from State to State, or even coast to coast!

Save yourself some time and book a flight. If you want to save yourself some money, book a night flight as they tend to be a bit cheaper.

Google Flights, Skyscanner, and Kayak all put cheap domestic flights at your fingertips.

Travel America with TrekAmerica

TrekAmerica is a great way to see a lot of the country in a short amount of time.

Your tour guide will take you to all the best spots and you’ll be exploring with other travellers. You’ll be taken around on a minibus and so you won’t have to worry about travelling from place to place.

TrekAmerica tours can be booked while you’re still in the UK or when you’re at camp! If you go through us, we can get you 10% all trips too.

Book Accommodation in Advance

Get yourself a bed before you start travelling. There are lots of cheap and interesting places to stay in cities right across America.

The best way to meet other travellers is by staying in Hostels. Trusted places to book accommodation include Hostelling International USA, AirBnB, and Hostelworld.
