​
If this is your first time to Vegas, or if you just want more, you might like to opt in to see the Strip in style in a stretch limo ride tonight!

DAY 2 - DEATH VALLEY & OVERNIGHT IN BISHOP!
This morning we're off on our road trip, and first stop is Death Valley! There are simply very few places in the world like this, and no photos do it justice as it's the vast open space, as well as the incredible scenery, that makes it so special.
​
We'll be taking you through the driest, hottest place on earth, Death Valley National Park, in the heart of the Mohave Desert, so if you've ever wanted to experience being in the middle of the desert, but without actually being stranded there for days or doing some kind of extreme event, come with us!
​
We'll be travelling with my local partner company who know this area extremely well, in high quality, fully air conditioned mini vans, to take comfort and cool down inbetween all the amazing sights to see! Enjoy photo stops and shorts walks at Zabriskie Point, Artist’s Palette, Badwater Basin Salt flats, Furnace Creek Visitor Center, Devil’s Golf Course and the Mesquite Sand Dunes.
​
We'll be travelling next to the quaint Californian Gold Rush town of Bishop, where we can spend the evening before camping under the stars.




DAY 3 - INCREDIBLE ROAD TRIP TO YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK!
We continue our road trip towards our next stop, the incredible Yosemite National Park, but the views along the drive will absolutely take your breath away too!
​
Dramatic Tioga Pass, Olmsted Point, Lake Tenaya, Tuolumne Meadows and Mono Lake are just some of the amazing sights you'll see along the way. Just sit back, relax and soak up those views from the comfort of our mini van.
​​​​
As we arrive in Yosemite, you know we are somewhere special as the soaring granite rock formations and lush forests, sprinkled with dramatic waterfalls, greet us. We'll enjoy the welcome views with a couple of scenic viewpoints as we arrive, decide which of the amazing options to explore the park we each want to do tomorrow, then we'll have time to set up camp in what might just be the best place to sleep ever!
​
Tonight we'll enjoy an open air American style barbecue before sharing stories of the day by our campfire under the stars. If camping is too adventurous for you, you can upgrade to a lodge style accommodation instead.




DAY 4 - WAKE UP IN YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK & EXPLORE!
The first time I visited Yosemite National Park I was blown away by how beautiful it was, and I can't remember how many people I've shown this main first picture to who can't believe this was exactly how it looked on the day, like a real life oil painting!!
​
I did my first visit as a day trip from San Francisco, so I also remember my time in Yosemite being 100% not enough time! I swore that when I brought a group here, we would stay over at least one night, but ideally two, to give us at least one whole day here to explore, which is what we'll have today!
​
The reason you need this is because there are so many amazing hikes and trails to choose from, and with less time, some of them just aren't physically possible. Even if you don't want to 'hike' and do anything too strenuous, you really do need this extra time here to just soak up the feel of this special place. You can choose from a couple of smaller trails with different scenery, to enjoy the shuttle to different stops, or go for a longer hike that gets you more off the beaten path!
At the end of the day, watching the sunset and the stars come out doesn't get much better than here.




DAY 5 - TRAVEL TO SAN FRANCISCO & SEE THE GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE!
Today we travel to our final destination of our adventure, and the luxury of a hotel for 2 nights after our road trip!
​
San Francisco is one of the most famous cities in the world, with its soaring Golden Gate Bridge suspended across the bay with the city skyline in the background, creating a striking city postcard view.
​
We'll relax on the drive here from Yosemite, probably catching up on some sleep after all the adventure so far, before being greeted to the city by the Golden Gate Bridge itself.
​
After time to take photos, get out and up close, we'll explore a few more sights of San Francisco before heading to our fantastic hotel in the heart of what I found to be the best area to stay in; Fisherman's Wharf.
​
We'll get checked in and enjoy some free time before I take us to a great restaurant by Pier 59, where we can also check in and say hi to the resident sea lions that have made this place their home!



DAY 6 - ALCATRAZ / TRAMS / NAPA VALLEY / REDWOODS FOREST!
It's our last full day and night of our adventure and there is still so much to see and do in San Francisco, and close by, so today is yours to do whatever you fancy, with my help and guidance of course!
​
Seeing the famous Alcatraz prison island is definitely worth it, as is hopping on the super fun trams that cross the city, especially when they zip up and down those crazily steep streets San Fran is famous for!
​
If you have a late flight tomorrow, you could always save one or both of these things for then, as they're easy to do from our hotel, and if you have visited San Francisco before, you might be looking for something a little different!
I recommend an optional day trip to the USA's famous wine region, the Napa Valley, which involves stopping to see the soaring redwood forest along the way, and visits to a few different vineyards where you'll be able to sample some very good local wine, and see another completely different side to this incredible state of California.




DAY 7 - FREE TIME BEFORE TRAVEL HOME / EXTEND YOUR ADVENTURE!
Our adventure has come to an end, but depending on the flight time you choose, you could still have some more free time to explore more of San Francisco today, and see any of the options you couldn't quite fit in yesterday!
​
Or, if you're hungry for more adventure, opt to extend your US adventure with us to San Diego for a 3 night add on, or go all out and join our full 9 day San Diego & Hawai'i Adventure for the absolute trip of a lifetime!
