Plan your custom-made trip to
United States - South with a local agency !

Fans will be delighted by the history that is recorded here everywhere. If the South was marked by slavery, the Civil War and the Black American Civil Rights Movement, it was also in this part of America that the first European settlers were permanently established, the first President of the United States was born and the decisive battles of the War of Independence took place.

-

Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, BB King, Otis Redding, Dolly Parton, REM, Robert Johnson, Aretha Franklin, Jerry Lee Lewis, Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, all great names in Southern-born music. We will favour New Orleans for jazz, the Cajun country for zydeco, the Mississippi delta for blues - all the way to Memphis, which is also home to rock'n' roll -, the Appalachians for bluegrass, Nashville for country, Alabama for soul and R&B.

Because it has been inspired by Indian, African, French, Spanish, Mexican and Caribbean cuisine, the South will certainly seduce your taste buds. Creole or Cajun dishes from Louisiana, catfish from Mississippi, crayfish from the Gulf of Mexico or traditional soul food from the coast will be some of the dishes to discover.Not to mention, of course, the local star: the barbecue. Each region has its own variant, which is essentially distinguished by a different sauce, more or less vinegar and spice.
