Summer holidays US

In the United States, a summer holiday can be whatever you want it to be, whether you’d prefer to laze on the beaches in Florida or spend all night at the casinos and shows of Las Vegas.

In Florida, there is an amazing choice of golden sandy beaches such as the ones in the Cocoa Beach area. If you want to have some fun, Orlando has got some of the world’s most amazing theme parks, including Universal Orlando, which has thrilling rides based on all time favourite TV shows and movies. How about SeaWorld’s giant water park, Aquatica, complete with wave pools, slides, rides and other water-based attractions or you could get up close to marine animals at Discovery Cove?

Las Vegas is the only place in the world where you can see the great pyramids and the Sphinx standing right next to the Statue of Liberty and the Eiffel Tower. A 24-hour city, Las Vegas by night will simply take your breath away. If you tire of gambling in the opulent casinos, you can take in a show, go golfing and see Elvis Presley a dozen times in all shapes and sizes!
