California: The Golden State

Probably the most famous of the 50 States, a trip along the west coast of America wouldn’t be complete without visiting California. Whether you want to explore Hollywood and Los Angeles, or take in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, you’ll have the trip of a lifetime.

Head up to San Francisco and take a tour of Alcatraz or head down to San Diego and visit the world-famous San Diego Zoo. We operate at both Los Angeles Airport (LAX) and San Francisco Airport depending on which part of the Golden State you want to explore first.

Florida: The Sunshine State

The fact that Florida is nicknamed the Sunshine State should be enough to tell people that this is the place for holidaymakers who like plenty of sun, sea, and sand. Head to the South Beach area for a spot of people watching, relaxation and some excellent nightlife. If you’re with the kids, a trip to Disney World in Orlando is a must. Whilst here, why not visit Universal Studios Florida, Seaworld, or Legoland Florida? We work with suppliers in a number of locations in Florida including Miami Airport, Orlando International, and Disney World.

New York: The Empire State

Whilst many people wouldn’t dream of driving in New York City, there’s so much more to see in New York State than just the Big Apple.

Lake Ontario is not too far away from New York's Albany Airport, whilst the unique suburban life of the state can be taken in soon after leaving Westchester Airport. Famous Long Island is best explored over a couple of days and offers a completely unique experience to bustling Manhattan. Alternatively, head down to the Catskills and the psychedelic haven that is Woodstock.

As you’d expect, we operate at JFK Airport, LaGuardia Airport, and many other locations throughout the Empire State.
