Beautiful, quiet and unspoiled
beaches, some of the best golf
courses in the USA, a rich history
which is still visible today in the
stately antebellum homes, and
vibrant cities bursting with an
eclectic mix of new culture and
old heritage, Georgia and the
Carolinas are undiscovered
diamonds on the eastern seaboard.
Georgia, North Carolina
& South Carolina
THE BEST OF SOUTHERN
HOSPITALITY
Georgia is the real deal when it comes to
traditional Southern hospitality. It’s warm and
welcoming and boasts a wonderful climate,
the perfect holiday combination. Venture out
to discover its beaches, waterfalls, valleys and
mountains. Hike along the Appalachian Trail,
visit fascinating military sites like Fort King
George, shop ‘til you drop in sophisticated
Atlanta and be amazed by the architectural
treasures of Jekyll Island’s Millionaires’ Row.
Whatever you do and wherever you go, don’t
miss a guided walk through the gardens and
ruins of Savannah’s Historic District.
BEACHES AND MORE IN THE CAROLINAS
North and South Carolina offer a seaside paradise
with some of the very best beaches and resort
islands in the USA. Hilton Head Island, sitting
off the South Carolina coast, is reminiscent
of the plantation era and boasts outstanding
watersports and other beach activities. On the
South Carolina coast sits historic Charleston, first
settled in the 17th century. It is a meticulously
preserved, fascinating town, positively dripping
with magnificent plantation houses. Golfers will
want to head for Kiawah Island, home to five
championship courses as well as two top tennis
centres. North Carolina’s Great Smoky Mountains
National Park is the USA’s most visited national
park. Whether you want the chance to see
wildlife including bears, elk and deer or simply
marvel at the scenery with some hiking trails, it’s
breathtaking.
