  Im doing the Grand Southern early October but am doing it in reverse mainly so I can add a few extra days in Vegas at the end which should be awesome.

  Hey Jasmine, at this stage im looking into doing the tour around the end of October, most likely the 20th or the tour that starts just after that one, with either the LA explorer or NY explorer before/after. Even if i cant do these tours ill be looking at definatly getting there earlier and staying after to explore the cities myself.

  And im the same myself, keep looking into all the possible options, then getting over excited before realising that i must have a budget with some spending money!! And im also from Sydney :)

  I’m from Perth where are you from? Haven’t booked flights yet still haven’t completely worked out what we are doing cause I’m meeting my friend in Europe then heading to New York, hopefully get all that sorted soon. Yes there is definatly a lot of options in Vegas I’ve been looking them up and keep changing my mind all the time haha. Are you traveling anywhere else or just America?

  No we’re just doing New York on our own maybe go up to Boston and other places around there. I like the look of the Hard Rock and the Stratosphere hotel and i agree the Planet Hollywood towers look pretty cool also, its a hard decision! haha! And yeh Caesars would definitely be an ultimate place to stay!

  You should do the reverse (NY-LA) because it will be almost winter when you arrive in NY and will be freeezzzzing. If you do the reverse you start in mild weather and move south (which gets warmer) and end in sunny LA.
