North America tops fly-drive destination

As temperatures drop across the UK many Brits will be daydreaming of a summer getaway and new research has ranked North America as the best destination for fly-drive holidays.

Whilst Hong Kong was recently named as the best city break beating off competition from the likes of London and Paris, the lure of driving along Route 66 with the top down is too alluring for holidaymakers.

Carhiremarket.com also noted Australia, New Zealand and South Africa as popular destinations. The African country was recommended for it's plethora of safari tours as well as Victoria Falls, whereas the southern hemisphere states were highlighted for their wide open spaces, rugged terrains and "breathtaking" sights.

However, neither could hold a candle to North America which the website described as having "superb scenery" and also pointed to the easy car access around the country with a host of well-signposted roads. Not to mention the thousands of iconic sites the US has to offer.
