NORTHERN TRAIL

FLEXIBLE ITINERARY

Our routes have been carefully chosen to include the best night stops and highlights. However, as local conditions and passenger requests vary, no two trips will ever be the same. With the guidance of your Trek Leader you may modify certain nightstops and highlights to give a truly unique experience!

• Day: 1 New York Area & Niagara Falls

From the New York area to the the edge of Lake Ontario, the sensation of crashing water is stupendous, the noise immense, at America's greatest national attractions, Niagara Falls. Wait 'til you're down on the water aboard 'Maid of the Mist', where the cascades pound, churn and foam right before your eyes. That's what you call a front row seat!
Accommodation: Camping included

• Day: 2 Ohio

Ask a "Buckeye" to tell you all about their state nut or how cool they think Cedar Point Amusement Park's rollercoasters are! Ride the Millenium Force - the greatest roller coaster in the world!
Accommodation: Camping included

• Day: 3-4 Chicago

Our next stop is Chicago - the "Windy City", home to some of the greatest blues music in America. Soar up Willis Tower for dizzying views over the Windy City. Trawl the upmarket malls of Magnificent Mile and grab a slice of Chicago's deep-dish pizza before peddling on the included famous "Bobby's Bike Hike" tour.
Accommodation: 2 en-route hotel nights paid locally

• Day: 5-6 South Dakota & Badlands National Park

Head out across the great prairies and America's original western frontier. Resident coyotes may utter the occasional howl as you settle back for some shut-eye under canvas. Then never mind the "bad lands", touching down here feels like a moon landing. Low-slung buttes, chiselled spires and saw-tooth ridges have a bizarre lunar quality as you swap some photos.
Accommodation: Camping included

• Day: 7 Sioux Indian Lands

Yep, we're talking Mount Rushmore and the uniquely sculptured faces of our four greatest Presidents. Close by, another rock-carved epic is shaping up: the Crazy Horse monument, a nod to the famed Lakota Indian war leader, very impressive!
Accommodation: Camping included

• Day: 8 Cody

Next, it is into Wild Wyoming, the heart of cowboy country, This is what Cody is all about. From its cowboy roots to its summer rodeos, shake a leg and try some two-step as the buckin' bronco rears its massive head!
Accommodation: Camping included

• Day: 9-10 Yellowstone National Park

Pitch up in the world's first National Park, Yellowstone. This is a superb wilderness of spouting geysers, waterfalls and simmering mud pools. A-grade American stars grace the trails - keep your eyes peeled for this abundant wildlife. Large herds of bison and elk roam the park and if you're lucky, you may even see bear or wolf.
Accommodation: Camping included

• Day: 11-12 Jackson

Feel the old frontier spirit alive and kicking in the truly western town of Jackson, Wyoming. Fresh from conquering the Snake River rapids, one of America's last great untamed rivers, on an optional whitewater rafting trip, corral your posse into the nearest watering hole. Million Dollar Cowboy Bar is a fine tip, with saddles for stools and trophy cow horns above the counter.
Accommodation: Camping included

• Day: 13-14 Idaho/Nevada & Lake Tahoe

Now your posse heads across a heap more widescreen scenery as you edge westward through Idaho & Nevada. California is callin though - set sail on an optional sunset cruise or play the house in one of the flash casinos - though a gentle pedal boat ride, scenic parasailing or an energising jet-ski, may just as easily push your buttons.
Accommodation: Camping included

• Day: 15-16 Yosemite National Park

Heading through Central California we take a scenic drive into the Yosemite National Park region and a chance to hike or bike through the extraordinary landscape of glacier-carved granite monoliths and spectacular waterfalls. Hike to Yosemite Falls, one of North America's highest, and capture El Capitan's great granite profile on camera. Keep your eyes peeled for the chance to view the park's abundant wildlife.
Accommodation: Camping included

• Day: 17-18 San Francisco

San Francisco is next, "Everybody's Favourite City". Enjoy a full day to explore the city with plenty of time for shopping in China Town & Union Square, sightseeing and a stroll over the Golden Gate Bridge. Maybe take a cruise on the bay for an unforgettable sunset, then go bar hopping 'til the tiny hours. Mission, Marina or Haight-Ashbury Districts usually check the right boxes.
Accommodation: 2 en-route hotel nights paid locally

• Day: 19-20 Monterey & Pacific Coast

Head along US Highway 1 - the Pacific Coast Highway and splash the cash in Monterrey or stroll the coast around this seriously scenic peninsula. Skirt the awesome shoreline, as the highway snakes south beside the heaving ocean swell.
Accommodation: Camping included

• Day: 21 Los Angeles

Roll into LA for your grand finale in time for a quick tour of Tinseltown and Hollywood Boulevard... that's a wrap!!

Tour ends at approx 17:00 hrs in Los Angeles on day 21.
