America's vast expanse from the Pacific to Atlantic coasts covers a lot of climatic regions and it's impossible to make an all-encompassing generalization about a good time to visit the country. But if we must, then we suggest travelling from March to May or September to October when the temperatures are warm enough across most of the country to make for a pleasant trip. It is advisable to check the weather forecast for the specific areas you will visiting during you trip and pack accordingly. Summer is also an excellent time to visit, but the most popular tourist areas tend to be crowded and nearby accommodations are often booked solid months in advance.

The peak travel season for local Americans is from the end of May to September which coincides with the school holidays. During this time, most camping areas, beaches, and summer resorts will be packed with locals and tourists alike. From the end of November to February you can head to the ski slopes in the Rocky Mountains and live it up at a luxury resort or head for tamer facilities at a slightly lower altitude. Avoid the Christmas and New Year's holiday periods unless you book well in advance as the rates usually skyrocket around this time.
