If travel is on top of your to-do list this summer, now is a good time to solidify plans before tickets and hotels get booked up.

The U.S has a lot of incredible sights to offer and believe it or not you can experience them all without breaking the bank.

Genius travel planner and self-confessed adventure traveller, Derek Low devised a brilliant round trip sightseeing route that will take you from one coast to another for just $213. That's really hard to beat!

The scenic and affordable 3,400-mile itinerary begins in San Francisco and journeys through the snowy Sierra Nevadas and Rockies before it ends in New York. In addition to the breathtaking sights, the trip also includes commentary from history experts and a few other perks.

If you're keen on seeing the best of what this great nation as to offer, there is no other trip as enriching as the one aboard the California Zephyr and Lake Shore Limited.

Derek said it best: "The experience rewards you with far more stories and experiences and sights than you could ever witness alone in a car, eyes fixed on the road, or on a five-hour flight across the country."

If you'd like a break from the non-stop 4-day journey, you can make stops in the cities along the way but that entails buying separate tickets for each leg according to Derek.

Due to popular demand, Derek is now offering planning services to help others recreate a similar trip. He promises to "arrange your entire trip and book all your tickets for a small service fee of $49."
