Embrace the hospitality and charm of southern America, from the political epicentre of the nation to easy-going coastal towns, with expanses of breathtaking natural beauty in between.

Hit the highways of America’s south and journey through some of its oldest and most classic cities, commencing in the heart of the nation’s capital, Washington D.C. An enlightening, guided tour of iconic landmarks, like the National Mall, ringed by famed monuments and the White House, a symbol of American leadership, provides insight into the hub’s power and political past.

Continue along the scenic Blue Ridge Parkway and traverse the panoramic Skyline Drive, leading you to the historic allure of Charlottesville. Time will then be spent in Williamsburg and Jamestowne, where the world’s largest outdoor living museum transports you to the period of the 18th-century settlers. A transfer via the majestic Great Smoky Mountains takes you to the artistic haven of Asheville, and an optional visit to the nearby Biltmore House, referred to as ‘America’s largest home’, is sure to amaze.

Charleston, a port city steeped in Southern grace and heritage is the following stop. Ramble along its cobblestone lanes and promenade before observing the poignant Fort Sumter that saw the firing of the first shots of the Civil War. Welcome the warmth of friendly Savannah then seek out shade in its park-like squares, veiled by Spanish moss and traverse the districts during an optional trolley tour. Atlanta, Georgia’s capital and largest metropolis, serves as the last destination of this captivating heritage trail.
