Alaska and the USA
The USA's northernmost state, Alaska is big, bold and infinitely beautiful. This is wilderness country at its best, where bears roam, mountains soar and Indigenous culture fascinates. Further south, the USA serves up super-sized cities including the 'Big Apple', New York City, and natural icons to match from the Grand Canyon and Monument Valley to Niagara Falls.
