Discover the United States
Sometimes the greatest treasures are close to home. VBT’s bicycle tours in the USA reveal remarkable natural beauty and rich history from coast to coast.
Blazing maples and rolling fields surround quaint New England inns where revolutionaries dreamed up a nation. Ochre canyons glow in the desert sunlight and redwoods reach for the sky as the Pacific surf crashes below. Southern towns drip with Spanish moss and salty waves crash into sweeping sand dunes on old Cape Cod. Emerald-green battlefields recall the grand drama of the Civil War and willows whisper on South Carolina’s antebellum plantations. Farther south, waving palms and soft-sand beaches line historic Florida enclaves. To the west, Napa Valley vineyards provide stunning backdrops to breathtaking sunsets.
New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston, Miami—the cities of this great country each have their own culture, cuisine, and vibe. Sip coffee in Seattle, take in a show in Austin, or stay out late in the French Quarter of New Orleans. You could spend a lifetime on urban exploration here and still not see it all.
And don’t forget about our stunning National Parks. Car-free carriage roads make cycling a pleasure in Acadia National Park, where maple and pine forests meet the Atlantic at rocky shorelines. Well-trod footpaths in the heart of Yellowstone National Park lead to spectacular Old Faithful and the sprawling Geyser Basin. These wild lands showcase the best of American beauty.
Country Highlights
- Peer up at the mighty saguaro cactus in Saguaro National Park.
- Cycle through carefree beach culture along the Pacific Coast.
- Watch Mother Nature show off at the geyser at Old Faithful.
- Savor New England’s fresh Atlantic seafood in a Maine fishing village
- Roll through centuries of history along the Natchez Trace Parkway.
National Parks
When Congress established Yellowstone in 1872, they kicked off a worldwide national park movement that has resulted in countless acres of protected land around the world. Today, the United States has 60 national parks in 28 states and two territories. How many will you visit?
Art
Andy Warhol’s vibrant pop art, Georgia O’Keeffe’s flowers and skyscrapers, Jackson Pollock’s innovative abstractions, the provocative social commentary of Jean-Michel Basquiat… American art covers a spectrum of styles and experiences. Whether you’re taking in the greats at MoMA or visiting a local gallery in a small town, you’ll find endless opportunities to experience it.
Music
Make a pilgrimage to the dairy farm in the Catskills where the original Woodstock took place, travel to Graceland in Memphis, visit the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, take in a show at Red Rocks or attend an open mic night at The Bluebird Cafe in Nashville—there are music experiences to suit every taste in the country that invented styles from bluegrass to the blues.

First time in Maine had a Great time. Anne and Barb are excellent guides very informative of the region and did a wonderful job keeping us safe. The group was so pleasant. Beautiful scenic rides with delightful food.
Maine: Bar Harbor & Acadia National Park
We thoroughly enjoyed our self-guided VBT Acadia National Park cycling trip. This was our first self-guided cycling experience and this location was perfect. The GPS worked really well and, as expected, the bicycles were great. We were able to explore at our own pace having ample opportunity to improvise. The Carriage Roads within Acadia are a pure joy. The scenery was absolutely stunning. The accommodations were both wonderful. We highly recommend the self-guided cycling trip in Acadia National Park.
