For mange vil en reise til Nord-Amerika oppfattes som kanskje kjedelig og tamt. Vi mener derimot noe annet og bortenfor de store byene venter en imponerende landskap, interessate kulturer og ikke minst en rå villmark.
Engelsktalende, lignende kultur, godt organisert...er ikke en tur til Nord-Amerika litt, vel, tam og kjedelig? Nei, mener vi.
Hvis du leter etter et episk reisemål, har du gjort det riktige valget. Området som dekker USA og Canada er et sted for mystiske reiser, imponerende landskap, og utenfor de store dominerende byene finner du rå villmark.
US National Parks er ansvarlig for over 400 beskyttede områder, inkludert Yellowstone (den eldste parken i Nord-Amerika) og Alaskas Wrangell St-Elias (den største nasjonalparken, faktisk større enn Sveits). Og nord for 49. breddegrad finner du endeløse ødemarker, hjem til bjørn, elg - hvor det meste kun er tilgjengelig via sjøfly.
Med så store områder, bør din første utfordring være tid og hvordan komme deg rundt? Innenlandsflyvninger i USA & Canada bør ikke koste all verden og de fleste flyselskaper som er med i en allianse (One World, Skyteam eller Star Alliance) vil kunne gi deg mange mulige mellomlandinger på reiseruten hvis du planlegger reisen godt nok. Dette er fordi de fleste billettene er basert på flylengdesystemet.
Men for å kunne oppleve det ekte og genuine Nord-Amerika er det tydelig at landeveien lokker (eventuelt med tog). REISEbazaar tilbyr togreiser med Amtrak og Canadian Rail samt svært gode leiebilpriser og bobiler.
Noen av de beste reisene går langs kysten, som fergeturen gjennom Alaskas «Inside Passage», et historisk cruise fra gullalderen i Klondyke og muligheten til å se hval underveis.
Når du har fått transporten på plass, er det på tide å plukke ut høydepunktene for turen. Du trenger måneder hvis du skal ta med deg alt på kontinentet. Så fokuser på deler som f.eks. fra kyst til kyst, Route 66, Californias Pacific Highway eller vestkysten av Canada. Andre områder som kan friste deg er Great Lakes, New England, Florida & the Keys.
Hvis tiden tillater det, prøv å møte noen av urbefolkningen i Nord-Amerika også. I den sørlige delen av USA holdes gamle tradisjoner fortsatt i hevd (prøv New Mexico). I Canada er det en sterk bevegelse av «First Nations» og her tilbys alt fra «home-stays» til inuitledede villmarkscruise. En opplevelse som vil vare lenge som et minne fra turen.
Så hva venter du på? REISEbazaar finner din drømmereise til Nord-Amerika
Nord-Amerika blir ofte sett på som ganske homogent sammenlignet med andre kontinenter – men dette er svært misvisende. Vest til øst så er det seks tidssoner på fastlandet alene (mens Hawaii er ytterligere to timer bak), og nord til sør strekker kontinentet seg fra polarsirkelen til de svulmende sumpene i Everglades. I mellom er ruvende fjellkjeder, en av jordens varmeste ørkener, store skoger og kystlinjer i Stillehavet, Atlanterhavet og Mexicogolfen. Med andre ord, når det gjelder å finne den beste tiden å reise til Nord-Amerika, så er svaret hele året.
Vennligst se landsbeskrivelsene da den beste tiden og værforhold varierer fra område til område.
Amerikanske dollar og kanadiske dollar. Kanadiske dollar er generelt ikke akseptert i USA, samme som at amerikanske dollar sjeldent blir akseptert som betalingsmiddel i Canada.
Vennligst se landsbeskrivelsene da myntenheten og tipskotyme varierer fra område til område.
For å utforske det gigantiske landene som USA og Canada er, må man definitivt oppleve noen av de mest kjente festivalene som arrangeres.
Flere tips, festivaler og høytider finnes i beskrivelsen for hvert land.

This self-guided walking holiday explores the quintessential island paradise of Bermuda, a sub-tropical gem, seemingly adrift in the North Atlantic Ocean. Warmed by the temperate Gulf Stream, Bermuda is a stunning archipelago of 181 islands and islets, the 8 largest of which form the fishhook-shaped mainland. The oldest British colony, this tiny treasure trove is packed with history and natural beauty. Famed for its stunning turquoise waters in a whole rainbow of blues, incredible pink sands and coral reefs home to hundreds of colourful fish, Bermuda is a beach-lover's heaven. Beyond the postcard-worthy bays, the islands offer a lush interior alive with a multitude of birds and flowers, making it perfect to explore on foot. As Mark Twain commented, 'You go to heaven if you want. I'd rather stay here in Bermuda'. A traffic-free trail spans Bermuda's diminutive 21-mile length; we've split it into 6 diverse sections to offer gentle walks exploring every corner. From hidden sea grottoes to panoramic forts, lush flower-speckled fields to the sun-kissed sands of the South Shore Trail, the kaleidoscope of colour is unforgettable and the diversity of flora and fauna unbeatable. To help you get around, a 7-day travel pass is included, allowing unlimited access to the modern and efficient bus and ferry networks. Our local partner, Tim Rogers, will brief you about how everything works; he has a wealth of knowledge about Bermuda's flora, fauna and history.

Winding your way through the icy channels of the legendary Northwest Passage is history brought to life. On this compelling 17-day journey aboard our new vessel, Ultramarine, passengers retrace the steps of the intrepid Franklin Expedition, which left the shores of England in 1845 in search of the last unexplored section of the Northwest Passage—only to become permanently icebound. Its discovery more than a century and a half later was a much-celebrated moment in Polar history. On Ultramarine, guests benefit from two twin-engine helicopters that will provide spectacular aerial views of the Arctic landscape, the most extensive portfolio of adventure options in the industry, more outdoor wildlife viewing spaces than any other expedition ship its size, and 20 quick-launching Zodiacs to get you closer to ancient glaciers, dramatic fjords and towering icebergs. Explore colourful Greenlandic villages, and shop for traditional Inuit handicrafts. Hike the endless Arctic backdrop and marvel at the vast, colourful tundra. Keep your eyes peeled for the elusive and majestic creatures that make their home in this wilderness, such as whales, walrus, Musk ox and Polar bears. Come aboard Ultramarine, follow in the footsteps of Franklin’s legendary Arctic voyage, and return home with memories to last a lifetime.

With such diverse landscapes and thriving marine life, it's no wonder Canada's Sunshine Coast is famous for both hiking and sea kayaking. Walking trails are plentiful to suit all abilities; similarly, our sea kayaking tours are aimed towards beginners and can be adapted by your water guide.

A scenic ferry ride brings you to your last base in Powell River. Here, you can walk part of Canada's longest hut-to-hut route - The Sunshine Coast Trail - reaching the iconic viewpoint of Tin Hat Mountain with 360-degree mountain views. Along the coast, you can enjoy the sandy beaches of Hurtado Bay before heading towards Lund where soft forest with rich flora awaits.

This means you’ll experience boreal biomes – cold, dense forests dominated by coniferous trees, boreal woodlands and boreal wildlife – while looking out for caribou, black bears, red and Arctic foxes and peregrine falcons. This is a sharp contrast to what you’ll experience in Arctic biomes – home to treeless regions marked by extreme winters, low vegetation and wildlife like polar bears, seals and migratory birds. Learn about Greenlandic culture, Inuit and Nunatsiavut culture and Viking history. Experience East Coast hospitality in St. John’s, famously steeped in Celtic music thanks to its vast population of Irish descendants, and visit three UNESCO World Heritage sites – Ilulissat Icefjord, Red Bay Basque Whaling Station and the 11th century Viking ruins at l’Anse aux Meadows National Historic Site.
