  1. From Free Love Freddy to Rob the Snob, Huge in Asia traverse both sides of San Francisco and end up wigged out.
  2. Boston: is the birthplace of modern American history, home to Ivy League students, a humming nightlife and beans! Get a feel for it with Lonely Planet author and man-about-town.

  3. Desert Dreaming: Road trip with Lonely Planet travel writer Greg Benchwick to a seldom-visited slot canyon outside Moab, Utah, in the harsh and inhospitable Castle Valley.

  4. Tony Wheeler, founder of Lonely Planet rediscovers a favourite US holiday resort, Cape Cod, a jut of land a short drive from Boston. With a long sea-faring tradition and great beaches, it's all about getting out on the water. There's a quaint, relaxed feel which is typical of New England and it's place in US history. There's even a replica of the Mayflower to remind you.

  5. In the middle of nowhere, a friend, a dog, some chocolate bars and a lot of driving to get to some surprisingly adventurous and breathtaking places are what it takes to find myself!
  6. God's Waiting Room no more, Miami is now Buzz City. Blame Miami Vice.

  7. Lonely Planet's Brice Gosnell grew up in Brooklyn's mad urban mix and says it all somehow works. Just outside of Manhattan, Brooklyn's 33 neighbourhoods each have their own cafés and bars that feature strongly in everyday life. He blames it on small apartments but it could be the community's social nature.

  8. Lonely Planet author Nate Cavalieri takes us through the no-nonsense city of Chicago. With bold and dramatic architecture (Sears Tower anyone?) and the most dynamic live music scene in the country, the people of Chicago are proud to offer visitors a taste of their city - starting with the perfect hotdog!

  9. Lonely Planet author Tom Downs loves New Orleans' soulful, saucy and eccentric nature. Located as far South as geographically possible in the USA, it's only mildly American in flavour, more a gumbo of French, Carribbean and African American. Tourists might flock to Bourbon Street's non-stop carnival but the whole city really knows how to have a great time.

  10. New York City is possibly one of the most intimidating cities in the world. Busy, sophisticated and sprawling, it is an overwhelming place. What to do? Where? When? How to get there? Even locals can feel out-of-the-loop with so much going on.... Newly minted resident Nick Vivion takes it all in stride. Taking 24 hours to explore his new home, Nick tries to highlight some of the diversity that makes New York one of the best cities in the world.

  11. Austin, Texas warms the heart of Lonely Planet author Jay Cooke - cold beer, guitars and good friends. A sleepy college town turned into a city of creative, eclectic intellectuals who know their music. Just beware their addition to frisbee golf.

  12. Lonely Planet author John Vlahides gives the low-down on San Diego, USA, from beach bumming to cute critters.

  13. In a not-so-tiny spot (over 10,000 acres) inside the vast and pristine Mojave Desert, we explore the area by camping, hiking, off-highway/off-road 4x4 driving, and I indulge myself with one of the desert's local residents: the Joshua trees.
  14. The centre of the world sure can knock you off your rocker.

  15. Lonely Planet author Sara Benson is a big fan of Las Vegas. Traditionally a city of dirty little secrets, it's now a high-rolling playground. It's all that you would expect - casinos, strip bars, wedding chapels and $5 steaks but some things you would not - art galleries, the Atomic Testing Museum and a serious underground punk scene.

  16. Dude, you want a hit? Then this free-love capital on the western edge of the world can sure give you one. A travel video all about San Francisco.

  17. Lonely Planet author Steve Slattery gives a character dissection of one of the world's best known cities: LA. Is it weird, self-indulgent, hip, down-to-earth, certifiably insane, or just mildly eccentric? You be the judge. (Make mine a double decaf-diet latte with a slice of lemon).
