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!

Local Payments - Food Kitty: US$10 per day. En-route Hotels: Approx US$45 x 4 nights

• Day: 1 Los Angeles & Pacific Coast

  With LA at your back, the sun on your face and Pacific to the West, you're already riding that California high. We follow US Highway 1 - the Pacific Coast Highway - north to Big Sur. Up in Monterey or Carmel, find a cool camp spot tucked between giant Redwoods and explore the rugged coastline with a sunset walk on the beach.
  Accommodation: Camping included

• Day: 2-3 San Francisco

  Fall for Frisco's charm while touring Chinatown, Fisherman's Wharf and the hillside heights. Enjoy a full day to explore the city, with plenty of time for shopping, sightseeing and a stroll over the Golden Gate Bridge before a cruise on the bay for an unforgettable sunset, then go bar hopping 'til the tiny hours. Mission and Marina Districts usually check the right boxes.
  Accommodation: 2 en-route hotel nights paid locally

• Day: 4-6 Yosemite National Park & Sierra Nevada

  After those big-city nights, stretch your legs in one of nature's greatest back yards, Yosemite National Park, and walk amongst the Giant Sequoias. Hike to one of the magnificent waterfalls, hire a bicycle to pedal along the park roads or float your boat down the Merced River. Next we wind through high-up peaks with far-out views across the Sierra Nevadas that will have you itching to get your trekking boots on.
  Accommodation: Camping included

• Day: 7-8 Las Vegas

  Closer to sea level, luminous Vegas ups the ante - the greatest show on earth! Catch some rays by the hotel pool then dive into "The Strip" in style on an optional limousine tour. Indulge in an all-you-can eat buffet, take in a show or just watch the amazing crowds, neon and attractions that many hotel casinos have to offer. And if that's not enough, take an optional helicopter flight down The Strip then gamble in one of the world class casinos before hitting the world famous clubs...all night long!
  Accommodation: 2 en-route hotel nights paid locally

• Day: 9-10 Grand Canyon

  Wow! You may be lost for words. Nothing you have ever seen before will prepare you for this spectacular site! Hike from the forest above to the desert below, red rock to white powder or take a helicopter flight for a birds-eye view and marvel at the brilliant colours. The canyon depths is nothing short of mind-blowing. Then again so is the sunrise and that's free.
  Accommodation: Camping included

• Day: 11-13 Lake Havasu & San Diego

  This is A-grade Arizona: Mojave Desert, Colorado River and the original London Bridge. We kid you not! Then it is on to the Southern California city of San Diego - 'America's Finest '. Laze in grassy Balboa Park or feel sand between your toes at Mission Beach and top up your tan. San Diego has the perfect environment for so many beachfront activities; rollerblading, beach volleyball, boogie boarding and bicycling... you name it! Later, cruise the Gaslamp Quarter and the heart of San Diego's nightlife. There will also be time for some sunshine at the world-famous San Diego Zoo or Sea World Adventure Park!
  Accommodation: Camping included

• Day: 14 Los Angeles

  Back to 'La La Land', with its Walk of Fame shrines to silver screen mega-stars. Tour Hollywood for a snap of the famous sign and a chance for your own celebrity sighting.
