OzBus has now launched its most exciting venture ever, New York to London overland. Owner, Mark Creasey said, "In keeping with our policy of taking the adventurous traveller to places no one thought possible, we have now started this amazing service between New York and London."
Over 17 weeks and 14,000 miles OzBus groups will travel across America and Canada to Alaska, then cross the Bering Sea to Kamchatka and Siberia, before venturing across China, Mongolia, Tibet, Kazakhstan, Russia and Eastern Europe to London.
"The incredible success of our London to Sydney programme has proved to us that today's adventure traveller is looking for the unusual journeys" Creasey said. The inaugural trip will start from New York on March 15th, 2009 and there will be trips going in the other direction from London as well. There is a flight involved from Alaska to Eastern Russia across the Bering Sea.
