I’ll be travelling to Pennsylvania in the summer and want to know any of the things I must do, visit or see whilst I’m there. They don’t have to be in Pennsylvania, just close to or a train/plain(not too long) journey away will be fine.

What must I see in America before I come home to the UK?

Thanks

Jay C asked:


Hi, I’m an Australian student considering travelling America. I’ve seen that you can get a 15% discount on Greyhound buses and AMTRAK trains with a student advantage card, so I was wondering how I would go about getting one?

Exploring wild America without a car (for spring break!)?

Allan Z asked:


I am really interesting in exploring the natural and wild scenes along the East Cost of the US. Since I am originally from Oregon (and going to school in Philadelphia right now), I especially crave seeing the great forests and mountains again.

I currently have no car, and can only travel by bus, train or plane. I would really appreciate it if you guys could recommend some great nature scenes that are worth going to, and can easily be accessible (such as hikes, etc) without driving.

Thanks!!

Questions about traveling across America?
Okay here’s the deal. I’m a girl (obviously) lol and I haven’t been to many places so I decided that, when I finish college, I’m going to do some some serious traveling around the continental US. I also would like it to be as cheap and safe as possible.

I have a few questions…

1.) How much would it cost me if I wanted to see: 19 states and 10 National State Parks?

-The states I want to see are: Arizona, Utah, Colorado, South Dakota, Wyoming, Tennessee, Arkansas, Main, New Mexico, Texas, North Carolina, Louisiana, Illinois, Washington D.C., New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Virgina and Georgia.

2.) Is it possible to see all these places within a 2 month period? Or should I say, is 2 months a good length of time for my excursion?

3.) Which would be better on my wallet and SAFER? Car, train or plane?

and

4.) What’s my best route? Where should I start? I think it would be best to start on the west coast and work my way towards the East coast because that’s where I live.

Thanks!

Ste85 asked:


Hi,
I’m travelling to America, arriving in Chicago O’Hare. I want to get to Minnesota from here. I was looking at flights but they are about $300. Is there a cheaper way to do this - bus/train? Can anyone recommend any websites of bus/rail companies that I can check? The only one I could find was Amtrak and they were sold out for my date.
Thanks.

I am planning to visit U.S.A this summer and I come from U.K so I am not eligible to drive in the U.S. Thus my options of travel between states are down to by air, train or bus. I plan to visit New York, Washington D.C, Florida, New Orleans, Dallas, Pheonix, Los Angeles, Springfield. I would also like to know more about the best and cheapest way to travel between place of attractions in those states. Thank you for answering.
