Itinerary: 15 days in the USA from the East to the West Coast
15-day itinerary in the USA from the East to the West coast, from New York to Los Angeles. Trying to condense everything to see as many things as possible, a kind of trailer from the States to see where to come back and what to look into in our future journeys.
When we had to organize our trip to the states we had few certainties: going to seeSteppi(Giugi’s brother) inLos Angelesand go toNew York.Between the two things we could organize the itinerary as best we wanted!
We started thinking about all the things we wanted to see and do in the USA, butin just 15 days it wasn’t easy to get everything together.
Genoa – Rome – New York
We have learned by now thatto start from Genoa and go around the world, the most convenient way is to take the first flightfrom Genoa airport and go to Rome Fiumicino.From there the possibilities of flights and connections are enormous.
To go to the United States from Romeyou have the possibility to choose between numerous direct flights, managed by various companies, withdestination New York or Los Angeles.
3 days in New York
For our 15-day itinerary in the United States, we spent 3 days inNew York. 3 days are not so many, especially for the thousand things to do and see in theBig Apple, but they are certainly a good start to tasteManhattanand to organize the second trip.
First Day – New York
Second Day – New York
Thir Day – New York
California
After the first 3 very short days in New York it’s time to change sides and head for the West Coast: California!Welcome to California!
1 dat in Laguna Beach
We have chosenLaguna Beachas a starting point for exploringCalifornia.
From here we were able to see much of Southern California, but staying in a seaside resort.
We therefore spent little time exploring the town ofOrange County.
To get around California we rented a car and therefore, among the things we learned there is certainlyhow to find free parking in Laguna Beach! (and it’s not an easy thing!)
1 day in San Diego
A full day dedicated toSan Diego. In recent years, finally, it is regaining the luster it deserves; a city that has nothing to envy inLos AngelesorSan Francisco, much more famous.
1 day in Disneyland & California Adventure
You are on the other side of the world from home in California. A few kilometers from your hotel there isone of the most famous parks in the world.And you want us to believe that you don’t want to spend a whole day in there? Whatever your age, the minimum you can do is1 day with the Disneyland and California Adventurecombo package. If you have another day available, we also recommendUniversal Studios!
3 days in Los Angeles
Los Angeles is one of the largest metropolises in the worldand perhaps for this reason it is not appreciated by most travelers. We were lucky enough to visit it with an exceptional guide!We spent 3 days visiting Los Angelesand they were super concentrated among the thousand things to do. To make your life easier we have collected15 things to do in Los Angeles!
1 day Malibù & Santa Barbara
On our road trip fromLos AngelestoSan Francisco, we decided to find a halfway stop.Malibuin one day and one night inSanta Barbaraare definitely two stages that we recommend you do because they deserve at least a visit!
2 days in San Francisco
San Franciscois a fantastic city! It deserves every day you have available to discover every hidden corner. In two days we were able to see a lot of things and to help you we have collected the10 basic things to do in San Francisco!
1 day Yosemite National Park
To return fromSan FranciscotoLos Angeleswe had two options: to go back the same way we did on the outward journey or to extend the journey by hundreds of km. Obviously we chose the second option and decided to go into California toYosemite National Park. Every km, every hour spent by car is worth the trip, not only for the park, but also for the trip and the landscapes you will cross.
