North America

Top five National Parks in North America

1. The Grand Canyon: we'll get you there just as the sun is rising causing an explosion of colour, turning the rocks shades of red, orange and bronze. If you're lucky, you might spot Californian condors soaring overhead.

2. Yosemite and Monument Valley: a wast wilderness area, famed for its waterfalls and giant sequoia trees, known as The Ancient Ones by Native Americans. Hike under the world's largest sandstone cliffs at Zion Canyon, and swim in the clear blue waters of Lake Powell. 

3. British Columbia: Canada’s westernmost province is defined by its Pacific coastline and mountain ranges. There's fantastic hiking and biking trails, as well as camping, and sensational wildlife. Whales and bears are the main attraction.

4. Canadian Rocky Mountains: the Canadian Rocky Mountains preside over four National Parks, Banff, Jasper, Kootenay and Yoho. Visit them and you’ll have the opportunity to raft, hike, bike and canoe while exploring canyons, glaciers, and mountain passes, as well as the brilliant turquoise waters of Lake Louise. 

5. Yellowstone: spreading across Wyoming, Montana and Idaho, Yellowstone is deep in cowboy country. Here you’ll find everything from colourful meadows with wildflowers and alpine rivers, to mighty canyons and rocky spires, as well as glacial hot springs and explosive geysers, of which Old Faithful is just one.
