along California’s thrilling coast.
Your tour opens in “the City by the
Bay,” San Francisco. Tonight, get to
know your fellow travelers at a
welcome dinner on Pier 39, overlooking San Francisco Bay. (D)
Day 2: Monday, September 4, 2017 Choice of San Francisco Bay Cruise or City Tour of San Francisco After
breakfast the choice is yours! Perhaps you’ll choose to take an hour-
long cruise on San Francisco Bay
featuring an in-depth narration on its
history and landmarks including
Alcatraz* and the Golden Gate
Bridge. Or perhaps you would prefer
to join a local guide for a sightseeing
tour of the city; hear stories of the
city’s past and present as you drive
past its famous landmarks including
the Twin Peaks, Seal Rocks and the
Golden Gate Bridge. Your afternoon
is at leisure to explore the shops at
either Fisherman’s Wharf or Union
Square. Perhaps you’ll take a ride up
and down the city’s thrilling hills on a
classic cable car. (B)
Day 3: Tuesday, September 5, 2017 San Francisco - Yosemite National
Park Today you wind through the
majestic Sierra Nevada Mountains en
route to one of Mother Nature's
greatest masterpieces – Yosemite
National Park. While camping at the
park in 1903, President Theodore
Roosevelt called Yosemite "the most
beautiful place in the world."
Yosemite’s remarkable granite cliffs,
deep valleys, Alpine meadows and
groves of beautiful trees will leave
you awestruck as they did Ansel
Adams, who lived in the park while
taking his famous portfolio of striking
photographs. Explore the park on a
tram ride** that takes you along the
floor of Yosemite. Look up at the
magnificent formations, including El
Capitan and Half Dome, while a local
expert gives a narration of the history,
geology and wildlife of this
internationally famous park. (B)
Day 4: Wednesday, September 6, 2017 Yosemite National Park - Monterey Travel to Monterey, the city
often called the greatest meeting of
land, sea and sky. It’s where
California’s statehood began in 1849.
Monterey is filled with lovingly
restored historic buildings and
Spanish adobes, and is home to the
famed 17-Mile Drive, also known as
one of the most breathtaking
coastlines in the world. Along the
drive you will pass through the Del
Monte Forest and see such famous
sights as the Lone Cypress Tree,
perhaps the most photographed tree in
the world; Seal Rock, where the seals
may actually bark at you; and the
prestigious Pebble Beach Golf Course,
where the fairways run along seaside
cliffs. Time is available to
independently explore charming
Monterey and shop at Cannery Row,
made famous by John Steinbeck. (B,
D)
Day 5: Thursday, September 7, 2017 Monterey - San Simeon - Santa Barbara Journey 90 miles along the
Big Sur coast, flanked by the Santa
Lucia Mountains and the sea-sprayed
rocky Pacific, for a trip that will
surely take your breath away. Upon
arrival in San Simeon, visit one of the
world’s greatest showplaces, the
palatial mountaintop retreat of
Hearst Castle, built by newspaper
magnate William Randolph Hearst.
Tour the castle, built on a 40,000 acre
ranch that Hearst frequently camped
on as a child. Now a National Historic
Landmark, Hearst was constantly
building and rebuilding what he
simply called "the ranch." As a result,
the estate was not completed during
Hearst's lifetime and was later donated
to the State of California in 1957.
Explore some of its 165 rooms and
127 acres of gardens, terraces, pools
and walkways. Later, arrive in
enchanting Santa Barbara, famous for
its breathtaking setting and natural
beauty fused from the dramatic mix of
mountains, valleys, beaches, islands
and the sea. (B, D)
Day 6: Friday, September 8, 2017 Santa Barbara This morning your
Tour Manager will show you some of
Santa Barbara’s most historic sites. A
docent will guide you through the Old
Mission Santa Barbara, established in
1786. It is often referred to as the
“Queen of the Missions.” Some free
time allows you to explore the
downtown area laced with pedestrian-
friendly sidewalks and paseos, with
the Santa Ynez Mountains as a lovely
backdrop. You may prefer to grab a
pedicab (Santa Barbara’s answer to
the rickshaw) or hop aboard an eco-
friendly electric shuttle to the
waterfront area famous for Stearns
Wharf which has been a part of the
scene since 1872. (B)
Day 7: Saturday, September 9, 2017 Santa Barbara - Los Angeles - Pasadena This morning your coastal
journey takes you to glittering Los
Angeles, the “City of Angels,” and
home to Universal Studios, as well as
a host of your favorite musical and
film celebrities. A local expert will
board our coach to take you on an
exciting tour of Los Angeles and the
surrounding area. You’ll begin your
tour at the Grand Central Market, then
continue past Walt Disney Concert
Hall and the Staples Center. A real
treat is planned for you with a stop at
the Original Farmers Market. Have
time on your own to explore. Perhaps
you’ll browse the shops or partake in
some farm-fresh fare. Continue on to
two of the most famous sections of
town – Beverly Hills and Santa
Monica. (B)
Day 8: Sunday, September 10, 2017 Pasadena The day is yours to enjoy as
you wish. Explore the area
independently or choose to join an
optional tour of Hollywood to learn
secrets of the stars and catch a glimpse
of their homes and hangouts. Your
Tour Manager will help you make the
perfect choice. Tonight, gather with
your fellow travelers for a farewell
dinner. (B, D)
Day 9: Monday, September 11, 2017 Pasadena - Tour Ends Your tour

crashing onto the rocky shore…rolling hills giving way to massive cliffs…mile
after mile of amazing scenery. Join us on an unforgettable adventure along
California's most picturesque roadway. Early settlers in Monterey often referred
to the region where they lived as "El Sur Grande" or "the Big South." The term
"Big Sur" is a simple mixture of English and Spanish. The Big Sur region is a 90-
mile stretch of land that parallels Highway 1, starting in Carmel and ending in
San Simeon. This scenic route serves up one of the most breathtaking drives in
all of North America. This is where the mountains meet the sea. Wind your way
along the jagged coastline and take in a view you will not soon forget.
