I cannot believe it’s finally here! It’s May 28th 2019 and I am currently on my way to the USA to begin a 6-week trip. I have thought about doing something like this for years but always thought I needed someone to go with me. L
What is the Grand Trek?
The Grand Trek with Trek America is 42 days long and begins in New York, you then travel to the West Coast and then back East again. Visiting major cities & national parks in the USA. When I read the itinerary it was such a dream trip and something I honestly never thought would be possible to do.
Here is the trip summary from Trek America’s website;
Trek America | Grand Trek
Over six non-stop weeks you’ll travel from coast to coast and back again. See it all, from the top of skyscrapers to the heart of epic national parks and from vast desert lands to stunning beaches. This whirlwind of a tour showcases the very best of the USA across 24 states – north and south, east to west. The Grand Trek’s what adventures are made of!
