There’s nothing that can beat the stress of everyday grind like an exotic holiday. And where better to get the whole experience than the vast landscape of the United States of America? From mountains to wildlife to beaches to monuments, USA tours will simply take your breath away! Here are some offbeat places you can include in your travel packages to the USA.

San Francisco, California
Throw caution to the wind when you enter this bold, carefree and charming city. Tall buildings, winding lanes and unforgiving hills in this city are just some of the things you’ll never forget. The brightly coloured Golden Gate Bridge, designed to ensure you can see it despite heavy fog, is a popular attraction here. And so is Coit Tower, on Telegraph Hill – which offers you a panoramic view of the city. One of the best things about San Francisco, though, is the existence of microclimates. Find your comfort zone, as a change of a few degrees sets in every few blocks.

The Gulf Coast
A conglomeration of five coastal states, the Gulf Coast lies near the Gulf of Mexico. While still suffering a bit from the oil spill ...
... in 2010, the Gulf Coast has rebounded remarkably. You can find once more find sparkling beaches with pure white sand and clear blue waters here. Be sure to enjoy the local cuisines, though you might find that shrimps are a bit harder to be found. Visiting the Emerald Coast in Florida, fondly nicknamed the ‘Redneck Riviera’ is a must; as is living it up in the Mardi Gras Festival in Louisiana. Check out the egrets, alligators and sturgeons in the swamps of southern Louisiana, too. Just make sure you’re ready for the occasional hurricanes and floods along the Gulf Coast.

Fairbanks, Alaska
The second largest city of Alaska has quite a bit in store for the avid traveller. The highlight of a trip here would the Aurora Borealis or the northern lights, best seen in winter. To the north of the city lies Fort Knox which is the largest gold mine in Alaska. Other than the northern lights, be sure to engage in winter activities like ice carving; the World Ice Art Championships is held just outside the city limits.

Generally, travel packages to USA tend to hold the more mainstream tourist spots like the White House, Yellowstone National Park and the Niagara Falls. But if you want to get a taste of America, then these are some offbeat places that you could head to as part of your USA tours.
