Overview

With 11 distinct ecological regions in Texas alone, you won’t get bored traversing between cities. The hilly vistas around Austin welcome you into one of America’s most vibrant music scenes. Meander through the Gulf Plains of Southern Texas to the coast where you’ll be welcomed into Texas’s “playground”, Corpus Christi, to explore sandy dune beaches that shelter sea turtles and wildlife. With luck, as you cross the Great Plains on the way to New Mexico, you’ll experience a majestic thunderhead as you’re dwarfed by the big Texan sky. Albuquerque has its own rugged beauty – and a world-renowned hot air balloon festival that fills the New Mexico’s own expansive skies. Delight in the epitomes of western landscape on your journey to Palo Duro Canyon. Cowboys and culture collide in cities such as Fort Worth where you’ll feel truly Texan with the chance to experience cattle drives, rodeos, Texan barbecue and authentic Western Saloons.  But you’ll also get a flavour for the strong Spanish influence that permeates the region with visits to the border town of El Paso and tours of San Antonio’s Spanish missions.

Arrive at the Dallas/Ft. Worth Airport. Pick up your car and transfer independently to your hotel.
