Coming from Australia
Hi. My wife & I are just about to jump on a plane & fly to USA for a couple of months. Whilst we are there we are hiring a RV at Albuquerque & dropping off in Las Vegas 14 days later. Would appreciate any suggestions on campsites, routes, places to see from you locals.

Welcome from sunny southern Arizona. You have two weeks, are you planning to ga as far north as Yellowstone Park?

The most direct route from Albuquerque to Las Vegas will take you very close to two must-sees: Petrified Forest (right off the interstate) and the Grand Canyon (turn north on Highway 64 at Williams, Arizona) both are "don't miss" in my opinion.

Welcome to the States...enjoy your holiday, and be safe.

Yosemite and Death Valley National parks are not too far from Vegas. I recommend visiting both of those locations. My husband and I visited Australia in February and loved it - Sydney, Ayers Rock, and Port Douglas. We loved it!
