New Orleans (1 Days)
Let the Good Time Roll! Your tour begins with warm Bon Jour from your Contiki road crew. Today you will experience the "Joie de vivre" that oozes out of every pore of this tantalizing city. Your senses will be on overload as you sip café au lait and try beignets at Café du Monde, meander along the sexy streets of the French Quarter, and awe at the immense mansions in the Garden District. This evening we'll dance to the jazzy beat of Dixieland while eating Cajun delights on a riverboat cruise on the Mighty Mississippi tonight (optional). New Orleans to Pensacola (1 Days) Life's a Beach. After a day of fun in New Orleans, you'll need a day to rest on the beautiful, white, sandy beaches of Florida's Panhandle on the Gulf of Mexico. Rent a jet ski, try the locally famous "Bushwacker", or get into a game of volleyball on the beach. Pensacola to Orlando (1 Days) Mickey and friends, here we come! As we drive across the state of Florida, you'll have time to plan your two full days in Orlando - the mecca of theme parks and entertainment. Orlando at leisure (2 Days) There are plenty of parks to choose from - Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure, Sea World, and the Walt Disney World complex including Magic Kingdom, EPCOT Centre, Animal Kingdom, and the Disney - MGM Studios. For nightlife, why not try Disney's Pleasure Island or Universal's City Walk. Orlando to St. Augustine incl. Kennedy Space Centre (1 Days) Blast Off! You will have most of the day to explore Kennedy Space Center. Your tour includes the Saturn V rocket, the history of the Apollo moon landing flights and views of the Space Shuttle Launch pads. Once thought to house 'The Fountain of Youth', we'll make our way to St. Augustine for the night. Tonight, join us for a ghostly adventure! (optional) St. Augustine to Savannah (1 Days) Hi Y'all. These two towns are hidden Southern gems. You'll have time to wander the inviting streets of America's oldest city, St. Augustine, Florida before heading onto Savannah, Georgia. Your road crew will introduce you to this charming town and show you the historic city squares where the movie "Forrest Gump" was filmed. The nightlife along the riverfront is way too tempting! Savannah to Raleigh (1 Days) Southern Hospitality at its best. Practice your best Southern drawl as you cross the Carolinas today. First stop is the picturesque town of Charleston, then on to Raleigh, North Carolina, your home tonight. Raleigh to Washington D.C. (1 Days) We leave Raleigh today and continue our journey north. We'll stop in historic Richmond but arriving in Washington D.C. where it all happens! We start off on a thoughtful note as we visit the Kennedy gravesites and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Arlington National Cemetery. Your jaw will drop at how beautiful this city is lit up at night during this evening's orientation tour that includes views of the White House and visits to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, the Capitol Building, and the Lincoln, Jefferson and FDR Memorials. Washington DC at Leisure (2 Days) Phew, so much to do in two days - you can see the White House, Capital Building, Washington Monument, and Library of Congress. There is also plenty of time to visit the Smithsonian museums - the Museum of Natural History, the National Air and Space Museum and the Museum of American Indian to name a few. Washington D.C. to New York (1 Days) Take a Bite of the Big Apple. What an incredible ending! Four fabulous East Coast states, two tantalizing cities, one U.S. military academy, and a coach load of new friends all add up to a lifetime of fantastic memories. Before arriving at one of most electrifying cities in the world, New York, we'll pop in on Annapolis, Maryland and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, both lovely and historic. Your epic journey across America will end late this afternoon. Please Note: Do not book flights before 9:00pm.
