America has varied weather conditions at different times of the year and its sheer size means the climate varies widely around the country.
The wilds of Alaska are subarctic, while Hawaii is tropical. Coastal Oregon and Washington have climates that are more familiar to Brits.
New York swelters in summer highs and freezes in winter, so spring and autumn often make for the most comfortable visits. Hotel prices can drop in NYC in July and August – it’s just so hot in the city that people flee to the coast – but this means that high summer is a good bet for relatively cheap USA holidays in Manhattan.
The USA has some of the best ski resorts in the world, so whether you’re looking for deep powder in Colorado’s word-class ski areas or wild heli-skiing adventures in Alaska, winter is the obvious time to book your ski holiday to America.
You can find some fantastic package deals on skiing holidays in the USA at either end of the season.
