In 2012 some 3.7 million Britons visited the US, but 85% of us travelled to one of 5 destinations, Florida (primarily Orlando), New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles and Las Vegas*.

A new website, www.inspireourtrip.co.uk has just been launched which aims to make it easy for more people to discover more of America. The genesis for the site was the collective frustration the two founders experienced trying to plan their own travel with conventional guidebooks or existing travel websites. It provides destination guides and ideas and practical tips and information in a concise format, saving holiday makers time in planning their perfect trip.

The destination guides are aimed at time poor independent travellers and Inspire Our Trip have distilled the relevant information into a format that can be absorbed in the time it takes to drink a cup of coffee. The practical advice is drawn from the extensive experience of the authors of travelling and of living overseas and covers a range of topics from how to save money on your car hire, sorting out travel insurance, to getting your ESTA.

Co-founder Anna Pounds said; “We thought there must be a better way than spending hours and hours on review sites or reading though guidebooks. We’ve created inspireourtrip.co.uk so others won’t have to do all that hard work and then still potentially miss the best or the most important bits.
