C'est avec grand plaisir que je m'adresse 1 fois de plus à vous car vous êtes 1 mine d'infos en or
J'hésite bcp pour effectuer la reservation des billets d'avion alors que le décor est maintenant b1 planté ( itinéraire et reservation hotels ) et oui les hotels sur les grands sites (parcs ) sont réservés même avt les billets et là je bloque ...J'ai vu des prix attractifs sur terminal A mais y'a 2 choses qui m'inquiète : d'abord le serieux de ce site et l' escale avec 1 changement de vol qui doit se faire en 50 mns ( ss changement d'aeroport ))
Est-ce vraiment réalisable ou ça frise l'inconscience avec le risque de prolonger le voyage de qqles heures Bof bof pas rejouissant !!!
Si vous avez eu 1 expérience similaire dites-moi si tt s'est b1 passé ou b1 la cata
Merci pour vos avis pertinents
Ton escale est en Europe ou aux USA?
Je suppose que c'est aux USA.....
A ton arrivée, tu récupères tes bagages..... tu passes l'immigration...... tu cherches ta correspondance.... même si l'avion n'a pas de retard, ça me paraît impossible!
Si les 2 vols sont effectués par la même compagnie, ils te caseront sur le vol suivant.
Personnellement je privilégie les vols directs, et quand c'est impossible je prévois 2 à 3 heures pour les escales.
si escale en arrivant aux US, 50 minutes c'est impossible, il faut compter minimum 2 heures. Ca m'est arrive de passe l'immigration en 20min, mais ca peut aussi prendre 2 heures si tu arrives en memes temps que 10 autres vols internationaux !!!
Bizarre d'avoir réserver les hôtels avant d'avoir les dates de vols, car là tu te bloque à un départ un jour et le retour un autre jour, moi j'ai préférer choisir mes vols en fonction de leur tarif, on par du mardi au sam(dim avec le décallage horaire) alors qu'on pensais partir du lun au ven(sam déc......) mais il y avait près de 200€ d'écart au total pour les 2.
Mais sinon tu arrives où? LA, Las Vegas, SF etc... et tu pars d'où Paris? Bruxelles? et à quelle date?
ouais t'as raison c'est 1 peu bizarre mais comme ça !!! : nous partons le 11 juillet de paris avec 1 retour le 1 er aout de los angeles en multidestination . je viens de consulter KLM et voilà
CDG......SFO durée 13h5 pour l'aller
LAX......CDG durée 12h50 pour le retour pour 4000€ avec 50 mns pr le changement d'avion à amsterdam 1 peu risqué mais bon !! en même temps le chgt n'est pas au USA donc avec DE LA CHANCE ça peut le faire Qu'est-ce que t'en penses ?
je continue les recherches bye et à b1tôt
Avec une escale de 50mns à Amsterdam tu ne risques pas grand chose.....
Au moindre problème, KLM te mettra sur le vol suivant pour Amsterdam-CDG.
C'est ce qui nous est arrivé avec un vol Seattle-CDG via Londres sur BA. L'avion avait du retard au départ de Seattle. Ils nous ont mis d'office sur le vol suivant pour Londres-Paris (sans nous consulter). Mais tous les frais occasionnés par les 3heures de retard (taxi pour rejoindre notre domicile car plus de train) sont restés à notre charge malgré mes nombreux courriers.
oui, DSL le tarif est pr 4 personnes
l'escale de 50mns à l'aller est peut-être faisable comme tu le dis mais le risque est que le voyage devienne 1 galère avec des heures d'attente !!!! A près tt ça fait partie du jeu
bye Kimy
avec vivacances tu a 3400€ pr 4 personnes vol avec SWISS AIR AR avec escale a zurich (1h55 a l'aller et et 4 h au retour un peu long pr le retour) mais ça fait 150 euros de gagner par personnes va sur le site www.trouverunvol.com pour avoir les tarifs les plus intéressant
moi jé pris mon billet je part le 12 juillet et retour le 21 aout
c koi ton itinéraire?
A bientot
GAETAN
guillaume à raison car 50 minutes c'est totalement impossible même si physiquement en courrant comme un fou dans les couloirs, les valises elles n'ont pas de jambes 😏
Plus sérieusement il faut un minima 2h pour ne pas stresser surtout si vous partez à 4
Déja qu'en ce moment les vols au départ de CDG partent avec 30 à 45 minutes de retard et parfois plus
Avec l'alliance sky team ils arrivent à te caser sur le vol suivant à condition qu'il y ai de la place
Nous avons connu déja ces conditions pour un paris-cancun avec une escale à miami (j'avais 1h30)
résultat des courses 2H coincées à l'immigration US et correspondance loupée
du coup nous avons dormi dans un hotel proche de l'aéroport et reparti le lendemain faute de place le jour même
oui j'ai egalement vu des vols pas chers mais je privilegie 2 critères : le temps de vol ( au delà de 14 h beurk ) et à l'aller ns atterirrons à SF et pr le retour on partira de LA; on ne fera pas la boucle complète ce qui correspond à 1 choix delibéré . En 3 semaines difficile de tout faire
Notre itineraire SFO 3 nuits
Yosemite 2 nuits
Death Valley 1 nuit
Las Vegas 1 nuit

Voilà ; pr le moment les nuits d'hotel sont reservées à SF Death valley Las vegas Zion Bryce canyon Grand canyon et Los angeles là ou c'est le + chaud; enfin d'après moi mais je sais pas trop c'est une première et c'est genial !!!!
Si tu ne recherche pas absolument le meilleur prix, je ne peux te conseiller que de prendre des vols directs : temps de trajet plus court, heure d'arrivée beaucoup plus sympa, moins de stress, les retards éventuels ont beaucoup moins de conséquences, pas de galère potentielle en correspondance, moins de risque de perte de bagage, ... 😎
Exemple de prix : 1214 euros (par personne) à tes dates pour CDG-SFO/LAX-CDG en vols directs sur AF.
C'est pas donné, mais tu pars de toute façon en haute saison, avec les vols en fin de semaine à chaque fois... 🤪
Sinon même remarque que précédemment : curieux de se rendre prisonnier des dates pour les vols en bookant les hôtels avant... surtout qu'il n'y a pas urgence pour s'occuper maintenant de l'hébergement. 😕 😛

Pour info, il faut quand même savoir que si l'on désire coucher dans les lodge situé dans le park, il faut s'y prendre très tôt, ce n'est pas pour rien que certains sur Xanterra et National Park Résevation sont à la réservation deux ans avant !!
Nous sommes partis l'été dernier (juillet) de Strasbourg, puis avec un vol direct de CDG à LAX (a/r) avec Air Tahiti Nui (11 h à l'aller, 10 h au retour), pour environ 1800 € pour 2. Ils ont un site : www.airtahitinui.fr où tu trouves une tarification immédiate en fonction de tes dates (un peu plus de 1000 € par adulte actuellement + taxes pour juillet 2008).
Nous avons apprécié les choix de repas, les distractions (écran individuel avec films et jeux, radio, lecture) la place pour les jambes, le personnel français, courtois et disponible, le choix des places à la réservation et le respect des horaires.
En plus, ils t'offre une fleur de tiaré (à laisser dans l'avion à LA pour cause de réglement sanitaire) et un verre d'accueil au départ.
Bien amicalement,
Tiphaine
pour répondre à tes questions : tu peux y aller les yeux fermés sur terminal A, au sujet de leur sérieux, je pars très fréquemment par eux et je n'ai jamais eu aucun problème ! par contre en ce qui concerne ton escale, personnellement et ça n'engage que moi, je trouve que 50 mn c'est juste, ça peut être jouable mais tt dépend si tu dois changer de terminal ou courrir à l'autre bout de l'aéroport !!! il ne faut pas que ton vol précédent est du retard sinon c'est mort !!!!!
Su ce, bon courage et bonnes vacances !!!
Hi everyone, We re thinking of heading back to the US but we re still debating the itinerary. We d love to revisit New York, but after that...? We ve already…
Hi there,
We're thinking of driving Route 66 from Chicago to LA in fall 2027 or spring 2028 for about a month.
From what I've found, it doesn't exist everywhere anymore, but that's okay! We're happy to take detours along the way. We're open to visiting less touristy or even completely off-the-beaten-path spots.
Are there any websites dedicated to this road trip?
I'd love any tips and advice for this journey—accommodations, vehicle rental, the pros and cons.
Thanks in advance!
Hi fellow travelers, do you think there’s a real benefit to spending 2-3 days in Yosemite when I’ll already be spending a week in Banff and Jasper in the Canadian Rockies? Won’t it feel a bit redundant? I’m asking because Yosemite is expensive (I’d go with an agency from SF, staying in a cabin, since I’ll be solo and without a car) and apparently packed.
Thanks for your feedback!
Hello! The itinerary is pretty much set for August 2026. Yeah, I know it’s gonna be *super* hot. But it’s the only time we can get away.
So, here’s the plan: Montpellier-CDG-Dallas.
Stay from July 31 to August 26, 2026:
Car rental – check,
Hotels – check,
Itinerary – almost check,
Photo gear – check,
Budget – check, 🤪
Meal planning – meh, we’ll see...
Walmart, of course, for the cooler when we arrive.
And now, without too much detail...
Fort Worth:
The Longhorns and the Stockyards;
JR’s ranch (for the missus);
Medal of Honor Museum – Arlington.
Houston and NASA Space Center:
See the Gulf of Mexico/America.
San Antonio and the missions.
Fort Stockton for an overnight stop.
El Paso via Guadalupe Mountains:
El Paso and White Sands.
Tucson and the Pima Air & Space Museum:
Tombstone, Bisbee.
Phoenix:
Still working on the program.
Sedona:
Round trip around the area via Flagstaff and Williams, or the Grand Canyon (already done) – we’ll decide on the spot.
Albuquerque:
Santa Fe,
Turquoise Trail,
Los Alamos.
Amarillo via Route 66:
Old Route 66 in the city;
Big Texas Ranch Steak 😏.
Dallas:
JFK Museum;
Perot Museum;
West End district.
And through it all – the road, the road, and more road!!!
We’ll adapt day by day based on our mental and physical state (we’re not exactly spring chickens).
Hello!
We’ll be arriving in Montreal on October 21st for a 3-day stay.
After that, we’re heading to Sherbrooke to visit our daughter, who’s studying at the university there. We’ll spend 3 days with her, and then, since she has a break that week, we’re taking her along for 3 days in Quebec City.
We’ve planned to visit Montmorency Falls and Île d'Orléans.
I’d love to hear what route you’d recommend for the drive from Sherbrooke to Quebec City—we’ll have the whole day to take it easy.
If you have any other recommendations, I’m all ears!
A little disappointed that the fall colors will be over by then, but the dates couldn’t be helped. Thanks in advance for your tips!
Hello everyone,
We’ve planned a trip (retired couple) for late August to the first half of September in Western Canada.
Classic itinerary: arrival in Calgary, Banff, Jasper, Clearwater, Whistler, Vancouver Island, departure from Vancouver.
I know you can’t see into the future any better than I can, so I’m obviously not asking what the wildfire situation will be like in a month...
But if any of you could let me know if, CURRENTLY, there are major difficulties—not just for locals, of course, but for tourists as well?
We’re hesitating between taking the chance or canceling what we still can.
We’re not young anymore and don’t have the flexibility we once did...
A thousand thanks to those of you on the ground or with contacts there who can help us make this decision!
A friend is renting a car for an upcoming trip during the All Saints' holiday.
Nowadays, all rental cars come with GPS, but do you know if you can use it without paying for the GPS rental? I have no idea since I always use my own!
After our first trip as a young couple to the West in 2007 (yes, that doesn’t make us any younger!), we’re planning to go back in 2028, but this time as a family of four! (We have two boys who’ll be 5½ and 13 years old in the summer of 2028.)
Our plan is to combine a few big cities (SF and LA, maybe San Diego) with national parks and state parks, mostly!
Ideally, we’d like to leave at the end of June and head back to France around July 19–20, so we can enjoy the first week of the Olympic Games in Los Angeles.
Since we already did the "loop" in 2007, there are must-see places we absolutely want to revisit—and especially share with our kids: Bryce Canyon, Yosemite, and above all, the Grand Canyon, which is still the most incredible thing I’ve ever seen on Earth!
On the other hand, some places didn’t leave a big impression on us for various reasons, so we’re not making them a priority: Antelope Canyon, Monument Valley, for example.
We’re planning ahead, but might as well be smart about it😏
Do you have any tips for a fun and doable itinerary over about 20–25 days with kids, without rushing?
hi everyone
I’m planning a world trip and I’m looking for great tips on accommodation in the United States.
Do you have any good deals to share, please?
thanks
Hello everyone! Really damaged due to flooding caused by runoff after forest fires (a total mess!), does anyone in this friendly forum have any updates on the Apache Trail between Apache Junction and Roosevelt Dam? Is there still a section of the road that’s tough to navigate?
We're leaving at the end of June and will be driving the route between Buffalo and Cody. We’ve already booked our accommodations and a rodeo in Cody, but during the day, we’ll be driving between the two and I’m unsure about the itinerary.
Which route do you think is the most pleasant, interesting, or scenic between:
- The northern route via Highway 14 with Sheridan, Lowell, etc.
- The southern route with Highways 16/20/14, passing by Loaf Mountain Overlook, Powder River Pass, Ten Sleep Canyon...
We’ll be in a car, so we should be able to drive on any road.
Thanks for your input!
I’m almost done planning our September road trip. After our 3-night visit to Sequoia, we’ll have a stopover night in Coalinga (to break up the drive). We’ll be staying two nights in Monterey and would like to stop along the way to visit one side of Pinnacles National Park. We’re torn between the West entrance and the East entrance, and we’d like to do a short hike of no more than 2 hours since we don’t want to arrive too late in Monterey.
This park is split into two distinct zones with no connection between them, and the mileage from Coalinga to Monterey is pretty much the same for both. Which area do you recommend visiting—east or west? And which route is the most scenic?
I’ve spotted two short hikes:
- East: Moses Spring to Rim Trail Loop
- West: Balconies Cliffs Cave Loop
Has anyone been there, or do you have another hike to suggest?
Thanks in advance, and have a great afternoon!

Hi everyone! 🙂
Just a quick question about King Canyon and Sequoia National Park.
Before our night in Miramonte, we plan to visit King Canyon. The next stop will be two nights in Three Rivers to explore Sequoia National Park. I wanted to go all the way to Roaring River Falls on the King Canyon Scenic Byway and then turn back to head to Miramonte. Since we’re coming from Oakhurst, Google Maps says it’s 300 km and 5 hours of driving. Since we also want to hike to see the sequoias (Big Stump Area and Grand Grove) before tackling the King Canyon Scenic Byway, the timing’s going to be tight. How far do you recommend going before turning back to miss as few points of interest as possible on the King Canyon Scenic Byway? Thanks for your advice, and have a great evening!

Hi everyone!
After years of hoping, waiting, planning, then changing, saving, and searching for the best possible route... we're FINALLY off this summer for a 5-week road trip in the West.
I had planned a trip to Colorado in 2021 but canceled due to COVID, so with time passing and my eldest’s high school graduation approaching fast, I figured it was now or never!
Anyway, the itinerary has been modified and extended to please everyone (I’m no longer the only one making decisions!!)

We’ll be alternating between house swaps, motels, and campgrounds. I’ve booked all the accommodations (except the campground at Bryce since sunset bookings open only 14 days in advance) and the first activities, as well as the most touristy ones.
I’m currently putting together my day-by-day roadbook and having some trouble planning certain days, like in LA or Las Vegas. Choosing hikes isn’t easy either—it’s tough to decide!
We’re really excited but could definitely use your help with choices and optimizations!!
Hello.
I’d like to travel along I-15N from San Diego to Las Vegas with my mom, who’s 67. We’ve explored Northern California and the California Coast over the past two years and now want to continue through the desert.
There are several attractions along the way:
- Mormon Rocks
- Desert Discovery Center and visit the Old Woman meteorite
- Joshua Tree National Park
- Mojave Desert
- Mojave National Preserve
- Anza-Borrego Desert State Park
- Silverwood Lake
My mom has back issues that prevent her from hiking or walking on trails with elevation changes. Is it possible to visit these places by car, or are the routes flat enough?
I’d love for her to experience the desert with an itinerary adapted to her condition. I’m also open to other points of interest that aren’t mentioned. We have 3-4 days for the trip, so we’re not in a rush—just want to explore.
I’d love to take a road trip and visit Nova Scotia. I’d appreciate some info on the best cities to see and the most interesting spots. The trip should last about 10 to 15 days, staying in hotels or motels. Thanks in advance!
We’re being relocated to Saint Pierre and Miquelon.
We’ll be taking the flight from Nantes to Montreal and then from Montreal to Saint Pierre.
Could you recommend a hotel near the departure terminal that allows dogs?
Hi,
My 16-year-old son is flying to Grand Rapids with other kids his age. There’s a layover in Detroit. There’s no unaccompanied minor service available. Is it pretty easy to navigate Detroit Airport to catch the connecting flight to Grand Rapids (domestic flight)? There are several of them who speak English well.
Thanks for your replies,
Good evening, everyone! 🙂
Just a few last questions to wrap up our Lake Tahoe visit plans.
**Parking:**
We’d like to walk to Eagle Falls and then Eagle Lake. I’ve spotted two parking lots that seem close to each other and give access to the trailhead. Where and how do we pay for entry to Emerald Bay State Park and Inspiration Point?
**Viewpoints on the East Side:**
Are most of the viewpoints (Balancing Rock, Granite Cave, Bonsai Rock, etc.) right by the road, or do you have to hike to reach them?
**Donner Memorial State Park:**
Is it worth making a detour to Truckee to visit this park and the Truckee historic downtown?
Hi there. I'm shocked by the price of the Upper Antelope Canyon tour—$175 for less than an hour… You might say, "if you can’t afford it…" But the real question is whether it’s really worth it, because $350 for two makes me feel like I’m getting ripped off. For those who’ve done both Lower and Upper, can you tell me if the price difference is really justified? Thanks
Hi everyone! 🙂
As you can see, we're heading back from September 6th to the 27th.
Everything’s booked for September—flights, accommodations, and the car. As I plan, I’ll be asking the experts for help. This is our second trip to California, but most of the stops are new to us.
We’ll start directly from San Francisco to our first overnight stop, Davis, before heading to Lassen Volcanic Park for 4 nights. Our flight lands at 12:50 PM.
Here’s our itinerary:
Day 1: Davis – overnight stop
Day 2: Red Bluff – exploring Lassen Volcanic Park (scenic drive to Lake Helen)
Day 3: Susanville – scenic drive through the park via the South Entrance, points of interest, and hikes
Day 4: Susanville – Cinder Cone and Painted Dunes hike
Day 5: Susanville – Warner Valley (hikes)
Day 6: South Lake Tahoe
Day 7: South Lake Tahoe
Day 8: Mammoth Lake
Day 9: Mammoth Lake
Day 10: El Portal via Tioga Road
Day 11: El Portal
Day 12: El Portal
Day 13: Oakhurst
Day 14: Miramonte
Day 15: Three Rivers
Day 16: Three Rivers
Day 17: Coalinga
Day 18: Monterey
Day 19: Monterey
Day 20: San Francisco
Day 21: San Francisco
Day 22: Departure
For hikes in Lassen Volcanic Park, I’ve planned:
Bumpass Hell, Cold Boiling Lake (Day 2)
Paradise Meadow (maybe not going all the way), Devastated Area, and the loop around Reflection and Manzanita Lakes (Day 3)
Cinder Cone and Painted Dunes (Day 4)
Devil’s Kitchen and Boiling Spring Lake (Day 5)
I’ve read there are trails to access the trailheads for Cinder Cone (11 km) and Warner Valley. Are these easy trails for an SUV?
Are there any other must-see spots or things we shouldn’t miss?
That’s where I’m at for now. Thanks for your replies, and have a great evening!

I’m a total USA addict. I’ve already done several road trips, including the East Coast and West Coast.
I’m here today because I’m planning to go back for another road trip on the West Coast. Possibly with one of my sisters and a couple of friends. It’s still just a plan for now, but I’m working on an itinerary in the meantime. Ideally, I’d leave in 2026, but I don’t have the exact dates yet—maybe April-May or September-October.
My last trip to the West Coast was in September 2014. We went for 2 weeks, but this time it’d be 3 weeks. What made me want to go back was simply a colleague who just left today. As I’m writing this, he’s on the plane. I’m so happy for him, but now all I can think about is going back.
Since I recently went to NY, I noticed that prices have really gone up. I assume the same is true for the West Coast? For 2 people over 3 weeks, what budget should I expect? We’re the type to watch our spending and find great tips.
I think we’ll arrive in San Francisco like the first time and leave from either Los Angeles or Las Vegas.
Thanks for advising me on the booking—should I reserve a room in the hotel or go for a cabin for the best view?
Should I get breakfast or not?
What do you think of the restaurant?
Hello, if the off-the-beaten-path enthusiasts are still around 😉, I’d love some info on tackling these trails. I’m not super familiar with the rules, risks, or what to expect—I’m looking for firsthand experience from folks who’ve done it on their own once or multiple times.
Hi everyone!
I’m planning a week-long family trip to NYC in October 2026. The focus is on museums and soaking up the New York vibe. I’ve been checking Airbnb, but the prices in Manhattan are through the roof. Since I don’t know NYC well, is it "wise" to look outside Manhattan? Any neighborhoods you’d recommend?
After our first trip to the West, we’d love to go back to see other must-see spots!
The stay would be from May 11 to 20, 2026—it’s short, but hey...
M11: Lyon to Las Vegas (overnight in Vegas)
T12: Route 66 – overnight in Grand Canyon (GC)
W13: Visit GC – overnight in Page
Th14: Visit Antelope Canyon / Horseshoe Bend – overnight in Monument Valley (MV)
F15: Visit MV – overnight in Moab
Sa16: Visit Arches / Dead Horse Point – overnight in Bryce
Su17: Visit Bryce – overnight in Zion
M18: Visit Zion / Valley of Fire – overnight in Vegas
Tu19: Return flight
What do you think? Could we add one more night somewhere? We’re not big hikers, so we’ll mostly explore the parks using shuttles.
Also, we’re all set—passports are good. Do you think one classic Visa card and one premium Visa card will be enough for coverage?
Thanks so much for your feedback, and happy holidays!
