Hi Everyone,
Am so thrilled to have found this forum site!
My partner and I are planning to go to USA for the first time from Sydney Australia in July 2015 for our 5 year anniversary! I have always wanted to road trip around USA as I find the whole country interesting and you see more when you travel by car.
I originally planned on flying to LA getting a hire car and driving to New York or Boston and fly home from there but have found that airfares are almost double if not a direct return and the drop off charge from the rental company (we are 22 and already paying a lot). So have thought well maybe we do a circle to end back at LA to fly home.
The main places I want to go to is in order of route:
LA
San Francisco
Seattle
Salt Lake City
Kansas City
Pittsburgh
Boston
New York
Atlanta
Austin
Pheonix
Las Vegas
LA
I guess my main questions are: Is this even possible? How long should I allow for the whole trip? (I was thinking 3 weeks to 1 month) and how much spending/living/accommodation money should we bring so we know how much to save? ( I have no idea!!)
Any thoughts and help would be much appreciated!
Thank you,
