Made up of Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina, Tennessee and Texas, an unforgettable atmosphere and some of the USA’s most interesting cities call the Deep South home. Famous for its hospitable locals, hearty cuisine, and historical events, when you arrive in the South, you can expect a ‘howdy’ or two and plenty of history. Music and civil rights histories await in places like Alabama, while New Orleans offers a thriving, diverse, and fascinating fusion of cultures and cuisines. This destination also lives and breathes music – from blues and brass bands to jazz and gospel choirs. There’s Rock ‘n’ Roll in abundance in Memphis and plenty of harmonic tunes and performances in Nashville, the home of country music. Why not fully embrace the culture by going to a Honky Tonk live music bar in Nashville? A holiday in the Deep South is hard to beat. Let your dreams set sail and tick the magnificent Mississippi River off your wish list. You’ll be transported back in time with epic sights and, best of all, an abundance of history-laden destinations to explore along the way, from Baton Rouge and Louisiana to Vicksburg, Natchez, and more.
